INTRO:

This is a program that I wrote for myself (Ross) It’s a 60-day program. This is highly adjustable to what you are feeling on any given day. Use the rep range as a guide for your sets but if you are trying to do a bulk I would go heavier weight and stay lower on the rep range. if you are doing a cut then run the reps up, feel free to add reps if needed. Make sure you record what you are doing with each lift so that you can track your progress.

 

TARGET:

Novices to experienced lifters.

 

THINGS TO KNOW:

  • BB stands for Barbell
  • DB stands for Dumbell
  • Lightweight is a suggestion ongoing light on the sets
  • (total) means the total number of reps should equal what is posted
  • AMAP means as many reps as possible for each set
