I am Looking for a program. I was trying to splice together some from Seth Feroce Videos and then some principals from John Meadows. Is the program you are using available on the internet thanks.
Tried tons of stuff over the years. How's the saying go... Keep what's useful, discard the rest.
Those are someone else's program/training philosophy, I use my own.What’s your current program/training philosophy and why did you choose it? (Sheiko, HIT, DC, Conjugate etc.)
I've used a program called Muscle Now over the years... 3 day split ... chest/shoulders ... back / tricep ... bicep / legs ... starts out first week with 2 sets per exercise ... 8 - 11 reps ... 1 week ... then next 2 weeks 3 sets per exercise ... 4 to 7 reps (heavy weeks)... then week 4 - 4 sets 8 - 11 reps ... then weeks 5 & 6 - 5 sets 4 to 7 reps ... going to failure on each set ... once week 6 is completed you start over over with 2 sets ... it mixes things up nicely ... but I'll admit weeks 4, 5, & 6 are difficult 80 to 90 minute workouts .. where week 1 is 40 to 45 minutes ... feels like a walk in the park after week 6 ...
Many of the best follow programs and get programming from their coaches. Just because some have sucess doing what works for them or their own thing doesnt mean programs are for beginners.
Yes sir. Absolutely. I don't know anyone that prepares for a meet with any level of success without using a individual program and using their body as a guide. You have to constantly change up or you start to slow down progress. Bodybuilding is even more strict on that principle especially once you are in the single digit bodyfat and have to get down under 5%. Hell, it changes daily.Maybe body building programs could be geared towards beginners. I enjoy them and wouldnt consider myself a beginner. And they are definitely different then powerlifting programs. Do you believe you could peak yourself for a meet on your own lifts better then following a peak program?
I've been programmed by a coach specifically for me. by a strength coach and also a bodybuilding coach.
I wouldnt have been able to have the success I had for my meet on my own programming honestly. I took a generic peaking program from Calgary barbell and followed as strict to it as I could. My thing is I develope rust when I follow my own thing. Stop making as much progress because I stop going out of my comfort zone .Start doing the exercises that I enjoy the most and stop doing the uncomfortable beneficial stuff. Yes I think I can write my own programming. But following one just keeps me honest. Why I still have a nutrition coach too
