Power matrix??

ksiebert · 09-03-2002, 10:55 AM

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)?

I think it would come up if you did a search under your fav search engine, I beleive Kuso has a copy of it, send him a PM.

You're welcome. I'll take that as a compliment.

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

Me 2 - what is the power matrix and how do you use it ????????

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.

It looks interesting - im thinking of giving it a go during my next 8 week cycle !

Any1 else seen results from this programme ??????

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.
