My lifters mainly use my Progressive Poundage Program (PPP) that I sell online for $20

Nick on here has just purchased it and is making good progress. I have it up on the walls in the gym

Its been around for about 3 years now. There are actually a few others on here who got it years ago

CS Student, Gareth, used it with great success. At only 84kg or so he squatted 210kg, benched 130kg and deadlifted 230kg from memory

Just had a quick look on PTC site and didn't see it.

How do I pay? Paypal is easier (for me) if not, happy to bank transfer.

Cheers.

This is going to be interesting!

I cant start the bench yet as I'm still recovering from the bicep tendonitis but I can get into the squat and deadlift program... actually might wait and do all three together so I can judge the progress equally.

So just to confirm, what I'm planning on doing is doing the 3 lifts weekly and throw a 4th day in there somewhere when I can either do general exercises and cardio or possibly alternating between each lift so each lifts gets a turn on getting done twice a week.

On the 3 lift days, I will do the program as per my PB for the individual lift starting with week 1 (is it 60 seconds between sets?) Then I plan on doing 3 other 'assistance' exercises from the list (or some others).

Does that sound OK?

I'm finding that I can bench three times a week, squat twice a week and deadlift once a week... although I've just dialled back the bench to twice a week as I'm getting some rotator cuff pain

I only train 3 x week as I also play basketball

don't aim too high on the starting numbers either... you might be fine week 1 but by 6 or 7 your going to be in trouble

Read the pre-text mate.

It is suggested that you do a movement per day.

eg

Squat monday

Bench Wednesday

Dead friday

follow each lisetd sets/reps with soem assistance stuff (eg front squat after squats)

You can do all 3 lifts on each training day - not many people do.

Some_CS_Student from these forums did it that way and did well.

Most people do it 1 per day

Thanks.

I did read the pre-text and that is how I understood it ie 1 lift per day. Monday - Chest, Wednesday - Squat, Friday - Deadlift. In addition to that I am planning on doing 3 additional assistance exercises that compliment that lift. So 4 exercises in total for that lift.

So how long in between each set of the PPP for the major lifts?

sorry. when you said "on the 3 lift days" I thought you meant the days you do "the 3 lifts" if you get me.. anyway..

Time between sets is as long as it takes for you to recover enough to complete the next set.

it's not cardio

edit.

Not sure about you but I like to keep squats and deads as far apart as possible.

so I'd suggest squats monday, bench wednesday and deads friday.

but up to you.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
