Training Cycle / Gear Cycle
Need a fresh training cycle? Tired of doing the same thing week after week. Switch it up !
Here is a rough outline of what I do. Tuesday: Max Effort Squat or / Max Effort Deadlift (alternate week to week) E.g. Week 1 Max squat / sub-max Deadlift. Week 2 Max Deadlift sub-max Squat Thursday: max Effort Bench, alternate load week to week Week 1: Straight Weight Week 2: Resistance Bands Week 3: Alternate bar (e.g. buffalo bar) Week 4: Assistance band / sling shot / etc Overload Week 5: Board Press Do not just go into the gym and bench every week, your body will quickly cease to progress. Saturday: Lower Body Accessory Work. This can be a HEAVY main accessory followed by high volume light accessory. E.g. Main heavy = Good mornings, suspended good mornings, zerkers, Anderson squats, etc. Light accessory = lunges, hyper extensions, glute ham raise, the list can go on and on. Sunday: Bench Accessory Speed bench, bench volume, triceps, over head press, etc. |
So you work for strength on week 2 and on week 2 what do you do.
For example on Monday week 1 you do maximum for bench what will you do on week 1 on Monday for Chest? Also what do you mean by sub-max? How many reps and sets you do in this case? |
Reverse band bench session - YouTube
Heavy bench training session :) failed 2nd set. Dropped it down a bit and got a nice press in on the third. After this did 3 sets of some volume. Then heavy pin presses to destroy the triceps. Followed by some back work! |
