I’ve been following a program you shared a few months ago. Think it was from a video you posted about improving your brothers squat. I can bang them out in 30-35 minutes. My wife recently started doing it with me and we’re up to about 40-45 minutes. People spend way too much time doing nothing in the gym
One of those earworm songs that a lot of people dislike but will simply not die.
This is great. Keeping the basic program going while training BJJ. Had to resort to high bar squats due to shoulder mobility.
Would be nice if you put together a workout booklet, I would buy it.
The Barbell Prescription has many program templates that are real well explained.
Thanks Grant, some great ideas here.
One of my dreams is that Jared Harris will one day perform this song live.
I'm telling Stuart McGill that you said to do a top set of one rep in the deadlift. I'm telling on you Grant!
Very usable program... Thank you very much
What are your thoughts on morning strength workouts in general? How soon after waking up can they be performed, will being in an unfed state affect performance, etc?
Grant usually does his Squat days first thing in the morning on a empty stomach.
If you ate a good meal the night before and you have been training for a few months now, you should be okay.
Do whatever and your body will adapt. It's more optimal to do your workout between your two major meals in the day but who cares just do whatever works and you'll get used to it. Unless you're competing and doing stuff for squeezing every little thing out... it doesn't mean that much
Once I get past the squats, the rest is fun. I enjoy my time in my garage gym. I even do extra exercises at the end.
Skinny Grant!!!!
Can you elaborate more on the deadlift 531? Am I doing the same weight for five reps, then three reps next week, then one rep the following week, and then add weight? Am I lifting, for example, 80% of my 1RM for five reps, 90% for three reps next week, then 1RM the following week and add weight? Do we include the deload week from 531 or just go right into the next five rep attempt?
did you ever figure out the answer to this lol?
Something like 85% for 5, 90% for 3, 95% for 1 then add 10 pounds to week 1 and go again.
This is great 👍🏼 content ! Do you recommend this after completing phase 3 ?
I have done and like the idea of Deadlift day where you poweclean until you cant add more wt and then do deads.
Recently ive found BBRows before deads works well and a good warmup for the lower back 👍
are you saying for heavy bench/press you have one week where you're doing 5x5 and the 2nd week heavy 3's or 2's and then the 3rd week you go back to 5x5 volume alternating between both? or you just do what you're doing with the squat and keep adding weight to your heavy triples/doubles?
What's your thoughts on abbreviated training like from Stuart McRobert's Brawn?
Would the program change for a master's lifter 50+ yrs old?
This is very doable
Hey! How we intelligently incorporate jujitsu, running, or football into this weightlifting program? Need your input.
I would contact Grant privately if you want a response. He does personal training/making programs for athletes on his website. Generally speaking, I would keep the days you focus on sport specific practice separate from lifting days.
How about one lift per workout, even during the novice phase?
All the workouts I've done are supposed to be less than an hour or so. Always takes me 2-2.5 hours. Even train at home so no fighting for equipment.
Thanks Grant! Do you backoff at all during the 5x5 sessions? Like first set at 225 and then reduce by 5-10% for the remaining four sets, or do you try to keep the same weight for all sets? Also, are there any differences for people over 40?
"Five working sets across" so yeah, same weight, no back-off. Check out The Barbell Prescription for a bunch of programs like this one.
It’s the same weight for 5 sets across ideally. If you can’t manage this once you’re very strong, you could back off the last 1-2 sets.
@@fazzolarijames thanks. That's what I've been doing. This program works well with schedules and playing hockey a couple of times per week.
