*DOUBLE PROGRESSION MODEL

The goal on these movements is to get ALL 3 sets for 8 reps. Once you can do that, you add 5% NEXT WEEK. That new load should knock you down to 3 sets at 6-7 reps, but eventually, you will be strong enough to do it for 3 sets of 8 again (might take a week or 2). Then we add another 5% and repeat the process.

Example:
NOTE: 3 x 6 x 95 means 3 working sets, 6 reps performed per set, and 95 is the weight used for each set, for sake of the example.
Week 1 — 3 x 6 x 95lbs
Week 2 — 3 x 7 x 95lbs
Week 3 — 3 x 8 x 95lbs.
Week 4 — DELOAD
Week 5 — 3 x 6 x 100lbs.
Week 6 — 3 x 7 x 100lbs.
Week 7 — 3 x 8 x 100lbs.
and so on….

————————————————-

“RPE” means rate of perceived exertion. RPE of 10 means you can not do any more reps. This is max effort. RPE of 7 means that you’re lifting to the point, where if you had to, you could get 3 more reps. So it’s still difficult, but not EVERYTHING you have. REP of 8 means you have to 2 reps left in the tank and so on..

————————————————-
NO WARM UP SETS are included in any of these sets and reps, so be sure to do 1-2 sets in each section to get warm, but do not count them as “working sets.
