5 day split; Upper Back Squat+ Arms Chest/shoulder Deadlift+ This program uses Alex Bromley's week-to-week self-regulation method from Bullmastiff for the OHP, squat, deadlift, and bench. you can look up how that works. AMRAP at the end of main movements (this is for that self-regulation thing) the end of the program is meant to lead into a peak, into gym lift pr take an extra 2 weeks to hit some higher %s and another week to rest before the big attempt. if you have a shitty workout or week go back to the previous workout or week. for next week. *****note: I have a partially paralyzed left tricep so I don't take bench or ohp seriously as I cannot make gains. Therefore, they are not paid as much attention to.
