Power matrix??

Does anybody have a copy of the Power Matrix? I know that somebody posted it on here before, but did a search and it did not come up. Was it removed, if so can somebody post it (in word format if possible)?

Call me a poseur, but I'm a little mystified as well.

It's a table consisting of a series of predetermined weights.
Each series consists of 7 sets with the following reps:
8, 5, 3, 1, 1, 1, 5. Once you can complete all lifts in a given series,
you progress to the next series, where some or all of the weights increase.

For example, the "370-375" series consists of the following weightsxreps:
220x8, 270x5, 300x3, 345x1 (three sets), 275x5.
If you can complete that workout, next time you use the "380-385" series.

It was intended to be used to increase your 1RM in squats, bench presses, and deadlifts, but could be used for any lift where you want to increase your 1RM.

I used it earlier this summer, and was able to increase my squat and bench 1RM by about 30 lbs. I was within 10 lb of my best deadlift when I had to stop lifting heavy due to a pulled quad muscle (not lifting-related). I've just started using it again.

I tried the power matrix for awhile but because of the heavy single reps I developed elbow and shoulder pain. I quit doing the power matrix and my body is better for it. I think if you want to throw it in every once in awhile to mix things up that`s fine but I wouldn`t recommend it longterm.

Start a few levels back from what you're able to do. It gives you a nice running start.

I hate for this to be my first post but I could really use a copy of the matrix. I loved it but lost it. The posted one must be gone can anyone help?

I'm with cla4jc. Sorry to be my first post as well but I'm also on board with trying to get the full chart. My nephew just got into lifting and is looking for a routine. Finally after digging around for roughly 20+ minutes this forum provided the best information.

My personal experience with this was when I first started lifting weights, 3 times a week (mon/wed/fri). I weighed 145 and got up to 260 1RM. It didn't end up being my best ever but it was by far my favorite workout, ever. When I started working out I was able to put up roughly 185. I can't remember the time span at all though. I just remember it was fun and very quick.

Just wanted to reiterate.. really hoping I can snag either the picture that came out of the magazine or the word doc someone mentioned earlier. Thanks in advance!!
