Well, I've been using gopro's program for a little over a year. I took a short break, and yesterday I was just starting it back up. I've made great gains, with the help of his program I was able to bulk up to 180, and cut down to 165 (where I currently am). I've never been this cut in my life, and I'm loving it, my abs are finally starting to show through. When I start a full P/RR/S cycle in september, i will also be adding gopro's modification for the bench max, as well as a bulk for the winter. I'll give you guys an update on that, or you can check it out in my journal.

Thanks for chiming in! Glad you are liking the program. P/RR/S II is not fully developed yet, but there is a thread here in the training forum where I begin to outline some of the basics of P/RR/S II.

Rissole is already using the revised P and RR week as outlined in the P/RR/S thread I put up here a while back. He loves it. But it is only for the very advanced. Soon, there will be lots more info on the new program.

Tank, I had no idea, I am honored to have someone of your level use my little setup, although I can't take much credit at all, the real credit goes to GP for developing such a great program.

Its a great program like you said. It has taken me to a different level already, its a great feeling to be going on 41 and have alot of young lifters want to train with you. I have two young bb'ers that went through 9 wks of version I, they were very pleased with the results, and i might add, very sore at times.
A good sore,but sore!!!!!
I have played around with alot of Bcaa's before during and after my last month of version II, its an intense program, so i didnt wanted to make sure i got my butt covered in all aspects of recovery. on non training days Gp suggested up to 400 grams of protein, man, did i love that idea!!!!!!

Thanks TaPo, but what Tank is trying to say, is that you came up with an excellent "version" of P/RR/S, and I agree, as I told you on the VPXforums. And anytime you impress Tank, you have impressed ONE BIG MOFO!
