Thread: ? for GOPRO

I generally use P, RR, S year around, but will sometimes take about 4 weeks to do almost pure strength training using ONLY compound lifts and training chest, legs, back and shoulders with no arms. I will utilize very low reps with multiple sets of only two exercises per bodypart.

Sometimes I will also go with short periods of 3 weekly full body routines to give me more rest and my mind a break.

It must be really hard to train your chest, back and shoulders with no arms.

Guys, don't quit your day jobs to be stand up comics, ok?

LOL

Hey gopro,

I'm still using your routine in weight training class at school. But a couple weeks ago I sprained my wrist, is it possible for me to still use your reprange week, followed maybe by a week of just pure cardio (I can't lift heavy right now).

Also for the incline bench presses, at my school we can only do them either with dumbbells, or on the smith machine. So for power week, which would you recommend me using?

Also, for shock week you say during chest do a Seated Press...well we don't have a seated press machine at our school, so what exercise can I do in place of that.

I also can't do Seated Leg curls, and Single Leg curls for shock week (I can however do lying leg curls), so are there any other exercises I can do for those?

Thanks in advance!

IF YOU CAN STILL LIFT, BUT JUST NOT HEAVY, THAN JUST KEEP DOING EITHER REP RANGE OR SHOCK WEEK UNTIL YOU HEAL.

IF YOU HAVE A SPOTTER THAN USE DUMBELLS FOR POWER WEEK. IF NOT USE THE SMITH.

Also, for shock week you say during chest do a Seated Press...well we don't have a seated press machine at our school, so what exercise can I do in place of that.

ANY PRESS WILL DO...INCLINE, FLAT, DECLINE. YOU CAN EVEN USE SLOW PUSHUPS. THE PROGRAM ITSELF IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE EXACTNESS OF THE EXERCISES.

I also can't do Seated Leg curls, and Single Leg curls for shock week (I can however do lying leg curls), so are there any other exercises I can do for those?

JUST USE STIFF LEGS AND LYING LEG CURLS. DO 2 SUPERSETS OF CURLS/SLD AND THEN 2 DROPSETS ON LYING CURLS.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Gopro, I take it that the order in which the exercises are performed play an important role in growth?

Yes, you are correct. However, we are getting a specific effect when we superset in two different ways:

-compound then isolation

vs.

-isolation then compound

Both techniques should be utilized for a unique training effect.

here is a question for GP.
