A good simple programme that’s easy to follow I’m 51 and I recommend this programme to people who completed starting strength or 531 as the next step in there lifting journey. I did minimal modifications due to training at home. Overall a decent basic program.
Great program for the gains I’m trying to achieve. Added supplemental workouts to a couple day, but kept the rest of the program as is.
Swap the row and pull-ups on their respective days and it’s a much better program
Gives a really good foundation for strength and is a really good segue into more advanced programs.
Used this program after a long period of injury and being out the gym. Added quite a bit of accessories and took out the big squat. Felt my strength returning rapidly. Hard to say muscle gain because I only ran it 4 weeks. I feel a lot better. Not sure if muscle gain was from program as written I added more exercises for more volume.
Very easy and approachable program with fairly solid results with consistency in completing each week.
very straightforward and easy to follow. my only negative is that when you're working out alone with heavy weights, going to failure becomes a little scary. I've had to choose machines and exercises that I can comfortably fail at like smith machines and belt squats
Very short, low number of exercises and reps and misses a lot of key muscle groups. Would be good for a beginner but it's marked as a beginner/ intermediate.
I hurt my back early in the program. I had to modify some of the lifts to work around my back injury.
Fix the deadlift scheme. I believe I t’s supposed to be single topset amrap, not 3 topset w the last as amrap. And why can’t it remember changes from one week scheme to another even when I tell it to remember.
