I knew with me trying to specialize more than 1 bodypart it will take a little bit of getting in the gym to see how this would pan out. First day out I knew I didn't want to do high volume shrugs AND rows AND hypers. After the hypers my low back was already pretty fried.
just wondering if jamie is getting to you with this move towards high-frequency training paul?!

Paul,
ReplyDeleteIn setting up those mid shin/shrugs, should we be shooting for high volume? You have 11 sets...
Thanks!
g - I've trained this way plenty of times in the past. generally when I'm bored. LOL
ReplyDeleteJohn - That's just what I'm doing. I kind of go by feel really.
Interesting set up, I know you're doing this to up your deadlift, so I was wondering what a similar routine would look like if you wanted to up your press (or push press)? Would your main weakness areas be similar to the ones in the deadlift (core and upper back), but with the addition of more tricep work or something?
ReplyDeleteKeep the good shit coming, Paul, love reading this blog.
Hmmmmm I'd have to think about it but more than likely it would be heavy pressing twice a week, with one day emphasis on shoulders and the other chest. With a lot of tricep work thrown in after each one.
