Hoopie is right, but as a beginner you should only switch off between P and RR for the first 6 months...leave Shock alone until then. Do it like this..

P/P/RR/P/RR/RR, etc.

Now let me be first to say I did not read this entire thread and I was very hesitant about this workout split being to easy.I have made it to my first shock week and am very happy with it.It stays very fresh and keeps me motivated and doesn't seem to long yet I am actually getting sore in places and that amazes me.I am very on board with this routine and I like it very much and will continue it probably for a while.

Again not to beat a dead horse but this is a damn good and effective workout.I have lifted for years and bang my head looking for something good all the time and I now have 9 full weeks planned out and it has been very effective. It appeared to easy but no it has been perfect. I strongly incourage any experienced lifters to give this a shot!!!!!! It WILL be worth your time.

How should calves, traps, and wrists be incorporated into the prrs program in accordance to each week, sets, and reps? I apologize if this has already been answered in the thread.

I'm doing a p/rr routine because I'm not yet in my complete first year of lifting, but I have to say, it is feeling incredibly effective and resulting in rapid progression. Just prior to prr(s), I was doing a push/pull, hitting each body part 2x a week. It worked for around two months, but by the third, my mind and body were reluctant to exercise (though i pushed myself) and were physically drained. I'm only a month into prrs, but each day is rigorous, exciting, and motivating. I am eager to each workout, and especially eager for each of the rest days during the week.

When it comes to calves, traps and by wrist i presume you mean forearms, I do them to whatever week in the program i am on. So for power week i do 3x6 for each. Rep range week it all depends on where my exercise falls as to how many reps i do. That you have to figure out kinda depending on your workout. Me i usually run traps at the end with higher reps same with calves duing this week...Sets wise i keep it 2-3 working sets...

Are you running the advanced version of the program?

Could someone Please link me or send me a couple of complete exercise routines for P/RR/S ?
Even one that you've written up for your self.

And If the tempo was listed in order of the first movement of the exercise itself, That would Be Great!
! It will take me a year to figure out concentric and eccentric's, !
PM it, or them would be fine.
I'm too poor to pay, or I'd go the online training route, too dumb to figure out the tempo, and if I did figure it out, i'd second guess myself and not have faith.

Help? 1 -or 2 complete routines, ( I know asking you to make the tempo more user friendly is asking a lot, so not need to change that if it means you won't send anything)

Thank's In advance! I really want to do this routine correctly!
