well, it is good to have several options to choose from no?
I am seriously considering PPP, although I know nothing about it... but I thought people would have other suggestions as well
oh, and i think you mean:
1.) stop cutting.
2.) spend $20 on PPP as your program
3.) eat the required food.
4.) ???
4.) Profit
Lots of clients do PPP on all 3 lifts 3 x week, they dont do assistance work.
Harvey is on week 11 doing it every session
Seeing as his squat is so low (relatively), wouldn't he maximise his gains by squatting 3x times/week as opposed to squat PPP?
Nah - I wouldn't say 4.) twice..
whoops
The problem with getting lots of suggestions is you spend more time researching why one method is better than another than you do squatting.
fair point, i am still training damn hard in the mean time tho (and still technically cutting, only because my current method of training suits it
Basically, you can't really go wrong "IF" you are progressing each and every sessions.
be it more weight, more reps, more speed, more sets etc etc.
I'm sure someone who benches over 140kg already knows this..
RIPs Starting Strength is an increase of 5lbs each session etc
With PPP, you pick your goal 1rm (say 10kg over your current best) and do the 11 week program.. it goes through varied sets and reps and weights to get you there..
5-3-1 does it in a slightly different way.
the more you dig, the more annoying shit you find.
you go from the general advice of "shut up and squat" to.. no.. the bar must be exactly 2.3cm below your trap and your feet must be 32 degrees out and only squat to just below parallel etc etc.
anything will work for a while.
I did 1 cycle of PPP for all 3 lifts.
till xmas, I've started another cycle of PPP for bench and dead, but decided to give the knees "some" rest by doing 20 rep squats once a week.
next year I can fit in exactly 4 cycles of PPP.
amongst all that I do OHP with doug hepburns method.
it's glaringly obvious that your squat is your weakest point.
just pick one method and do it.
most seem to cycle for 10-12 weeks anyway.
test your strength before and after that cycle and see if it's worth doing another or moving on.
i think my sumo deadlift is ok, although i am still working on this. all i know is that my lower back doesn't hurt after doing deads anymore so that has to be a good thing IMO
Without being a fag i reckon youd get more steady progress doing one lift a session. You're coming from a bodybuilder background so you're going to have withdrawals if you dont tack on accessory work anyway.
Not necessarily true. Sumo deads use less lower back and more glute/hamstring so less lower back soreness doesn't always mean it's perfect.
This is probably a stupid question, but is that Mon/Squat Wed/Bench Fri/Deads..... or all three lifts on each day, 3 times a week?
