Program Description
The aim of this intermediate program is TEST the guidelines laid down in Cody Lefever's GZCL Method as explained on his blog at https://swoleateveryheight.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-gzcl-method-for-powerlifting.html and in his e-book available from Amazon for a buck. Unlike Jacked & Tan 2.0, the T1 movements always use reps at or in excess of 85% as opposed to varying rep ranges and intensity. The idea is to use heavy iron in T1 every session - no of sets of 10 at 60 - 70% for weeks on end... make that your next program. Warm up sets should be added for the T1 movements. T2 and T3 exercises should be changed for other suitable exercises as you progress - follow Cody's suggestions on his blog or in his book - becase, as he says, GZCL is a method not a program. Use a Training Max (90-95ish percent of your 1RM) and reset it every five weeks, when you test your 1 RM or 3 RM or 5 RM and use an online RM calculator to work out where to go next. Disclosure: I am just a lifter, not a coach and in no way affiliated with Cody. All the good ideas are his, all the misinterpretations of his work, mine. Good luck!
