Posted this in some other places, but I haven't seen you guys post anywhere else, and I'd like to get your input (Beast, str8flexed, Sixpack, Abdominator).

I'm on Westside now, but I want a change of pace, and to make my workouts more bodybuilding oriented, while still training the Big 3 for my first PL'ing meet in March '05. Here's what I've come up with :

Reps are 7-9, once I hit 9 reps, the weight goes up. I'll alternate splits every 2 weeks, so it'll be [A A, B B, A A, B B, etc.].

For the main movement, I'll work up to a specific rep max over ~5 sets, that will look like this :

Week 1 - 3 reps
Week 2 - 1 rep
Week 3 - 3 reps
Week 4 - 1 rep
Week 5 - deload

Overall volume/frequency is semi-low, that is accustomed to my body.

Monday - Squat/Legs
Tuesday - Bench Press/Chest/Triceps
Wednesday - Rest
Thursday - Shoulders/Lats/Traps
Friday - Deadlift/Back/Biceps

Yeah I just want a change of pace for a bit. I'll definately do another cycle or 2 of Westside before the meet though.
