*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% to the bar NEXT TIME. 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 β€” 3 x 6 x 95lbs
Week 2 β€” 3 x 7 x 95lbs
Week 3 β€” 3 x 8 x 95lbs.
Week 4 β€” DELOAD
Week 5 β€” 3 x 6 x 100lbs.
Week 6 β€” 3 x 7 x 100lbs.
Week 7 β€” 3 x 8 x 100lbs.
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.”
