I just did...............good stuff.

JerseyDevil · 06-26-2009, 06:57 PM

I been testing it out the last couple of weeks, and really like the concept. It is sort of like a combination of the Starr program, conventional periodization, and Doggcrap (DC) training all rolled into one...

I need to pencil in an exact program. Plus, call me old school but I still prefer push, pull, and lower body workouts rather then full body, so I need to figure out how to adjust to a 4 day program.

During the week I have to do quick RI's by necessity.... I need to get home and let the dog out

. My gym is about 1 minute from where I work, so it is a nice set up.

yellowmoomba · 06-27-2009, 07:09 AM

Why do you want to go 4 days?

Here's a 4 day option:

Day 1)Lower (Hip and Hams dominated - differeent deads (trap, SL, conventional) and Core work)
Day 2)Push
Day 3)Pull
Day 4)Lower (Quad dominated - squats, lunges, press and some other core work)

You are lucky to be 1 mile from work. I'm 55 miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Burner02 · 06-27-2009, 10:27 PM

55 miles???? Ho-lee-schnikes!
What do you listen to when you are driving for an hour or more each day?

I usually do... it's the weekdays that are the problem. I think with my new set up though, I will be consistent

Settling into a consistent schedule is half the battle.

Once you get into the habit of going on a regular basis, the rest follows naturally.

I used Pfunk's article as the template. I changed some movements, and I decided to use a low, moderate, high volume approach rather then the moderate, low, high he details. I like the build up each week then a deload. I am going to do 3 workouts per week. Probably Sat, Tue, Thu or as schedule allows.

That does seem a more logical way to do it.

Hey Jersey!

We are starting er' up again after a couple weeks of lag time

Feels good to be sore and get the muscles hardened up again

JerseyDevil · 07-02-2009, 05:20 PM

Unload Week

Leg Press

It is hard to for me to do these 'light' workouts. You know the saying, lift heavy or go home. But I do understand the active rest concept and it makes sense.

In his article he mentions both ways. He prefers modulating the volume.

I like the sound of that, but I'll stick with progressive volume

Isn't that the truth? That is the 'good' sore that I just love to feel.

I forgot to mention, when I stopped posted here earlier my weight was around 233-235. I am now 214-216, and definitely lost some strength. But that is ok, because I feel a lot better with better endurance, lower pulse rate, and lower blood pressure.

Thanks buddy, but it pales in comparison to your 20+ rep squats

For not having benched heavy lately, it looks like you passed the test.
