Bullmastiff
Great program. After consistent 18 months in the gym, this has helped me overcome some strength plateaus.
Sometimes it’s hard to find time to get the whole workout done at the intensity needed but I always get something for the weight done
Volume truly is king 🤴 super simple doesn't rely on RPE too heavily progress is auto regulated along as you dont over estimate your 1RM there is so much room for progress before needing to change anything really weak points can easily be addressed by changing exercise selection only things i have changed is moving Abbs,calfs, and forearms to there own day but this is purely based on preference not a criticism
It's pretty good. I like a little more variation so I sometimes swap exercises out for ones I like better.
I enjoy that the volume slowing ramps up so its not too much too soon on the body. With ample recovery im able to come back week to week with greater control and stability with heavier weights
Solid program all around. Room to wiggle for specific adjustments but a great base for strength and aesthetic improvement.
I did this program while doing periodic 36 hr 0 calorie fasts. They helped me stay on track with the diet. During my feeding time periods I would eat a surplus of 300 calories a day. The only mods I really made were adding some pull ups on days I didn’t have access to equipment. The progression kept me from accumulating too much fatigue. Loved this program. I do recommend adding in some of the west side methodologies for cranky elbows, I.e. 100 reps banded tri push downs.
Best program I tried so far. Deadlift went down, squat went up 10lbs and bench stayed the same. Objectively thats atrocious but the wave progression model is good and I saw change within the first 6 weeks. After that everything stalled or went down.
Solid program for an advanced lifter who wants something simple and effective.
This program is extremely difficult but I have had great success with it. I started the program with my 1 rm about 80% of my true 1 rm. About halfway through the program I increased my 1 rm to what I thought it really was and that’s when I started to see major progress. This was a great plateau breaker. I do add a deload week before starting my last 3 week cycle because I started to feel some strain in my left hamstring. I ate in a surplus and was religious about protein and sleep. So many people have commented on seeing my size increase. I am going to cut once I’m done with the program to lean back out and see how much lean mass I truly gained. I gained about 20 lbs total mass, but I’m starting to look a little too chunky. I guess I don’t care too much because almost every week I’m setting new pr’s. Highly recommend this workout if you have the bandwidth to handle it.
