    Question

    Question...for the loading phase are we supposed to train upper and lower body three times per week?

    Seems like a bit much to me.

    Yup Thats the point. Your not going to overtrain in 2 wks, your going to overreach into a higher state of adaption. At the point of overreaching you back down and deload to rest, thus your body goes into supercompensation.

    And your not training to failure. You have to get this whole split thing outa your head. Training more frequently rather then once per week has been proven to keep your muscles in an anabolic state longer and show better results. There are years of scientific studies supporting frequent training. Keep In mind hes not doing a ton of sets. Rather, he split the sets over the course of the week.

    Kyle: Great routine. Maybe Ill try that after the new one you just gave me .

    To failure or no?

    May seem like a dumb question, but how do you find your maxes for all of these exercises before actually doing them? Do you just wing it and guestimate? Thanks!

    The time you train to failure you'll have an F next to the sets. Other then that NO training to failure ever.

    No you increase the volume of loading progressivly. Start off with what you think you can handle roughly to finish the sets and reps listed. Each Weak attempt to increase the amount of weight on the last set of the exercise.

    Okay, so I bench 150 for 3 sets of six reps; if I feel I can get 150 more than six times on the 3rd set, I should move the weight up to 155-160, right?

    Thanks for the clarifications! I'm very interested in one of these "conjugated" workouts. Where can I go to learn more?

    Check out dual factor hypertrophy training and some periodization articles over at t-mag. periodization and the dual factor theory (fitness fitigue theory) is the way to go imo.

    ...scuse me? So you are saying to hit the muscle groups more than 1x a week?

    Uhh...I don't think so. Not if you have a good routine down.

    I only see 2 back exercises out of 4 workout days, deads and weighted pullups. Ditch the curls on upper day 2 and do dumb-bell rows, the hit your biceps good enough as well as give you some good dynamic back workout as deads are just, more or less, a static hold work out for the back

    Are you supposed to gain during the supercompensation period? Or are you just merely recovering?

    Upper day 1:
    Bench 2x10
    Close grip 2x10
    Military Press 2x10
    Upright row 2x10
    Hammer Curls 2x10

    Lower day 1:
    Squat 2x10
    Deadlift 2x10
    Glut Ham raise 1x10
    GM 2x10
    Seems neat, but what exact days are you doing this? Is Upper Day 1 on Monday, and Day 2 on THursday or something? And also, I dont do flyes, what would you substitute for those?

    Not everyone is strong enough to do pull-ups. I'm sure FI meant this as a 'general program', I think you could substitute weighted pull-ups if you're strong enough.

    Uhh...I don't think so. Not if you have a good routine down.
    describe a good routine? and how are you going to optimally tax the system inorder to increase adaption?

    Your forgetting about the goodmornings and straightleg dealifts, both very taxing ont he back.

    This is just a general program correct. This program isnt set in stone period. The workout exercises and sets/reps can be modified but the general rule of thumb is to have both the intensity/volume/freqnecy/fatigue increases throughout the program. Thats the general principle. Do what works for you but follow the guidlines.

    And for those who say they cant gain anything but overtraining training like this, i beg you to try it. You'll be amazed at this.

    You make lifting to complicated when liftting isnt complicated at all. Keep it simple. Load phase after the load phase adapt to the super net testosteron gains then go into the pre loading phase 3 then go into the post gaining load phase.

    He's only posting an example program, if you don't like it don't do it, why even bother responding to the post?

    it's only complicated when you don't take the time to understand it. if expanding your knowledge is not something that you're willing to do in order to maximize your results through your training, well, too bad for you. you'll never be as big as you could be with that train of thought.

    Last time i checked there was a reason why i was bigger and much stronger then you

    As for what people said, its complicated to those who are unwilling to learn. This isnt hit where you just throw something on the paper and have some lifter do it and get average results.

    Would this mean that you grow the most during weeks 5-6?
