Old-School 3 day per week thread....

OHHH, well I will switch it Today, then. I have done 5 heavy sets of 5 before so I assumed that was what we were doing.

That's ok in the beginning but over training will creep in if you don't back it down - expect 1.5-2 pounds per week gained if diet is fairly good.

Cornholio,

Great post.

I'm going to start this program in a month or so. What supplements do you recommend, in order of importance please for those of us with limited budgets, while doing this workout?

number 1 supplement for any program....FOOD

 

[asiansinc]

Well, yes. Thanks.

I plan on eating a lot.

And I'll be diligently ingesting my whey and other proteins. And creatine. And glutamine. If I can afford them.

But, in addition to that?

Could one of you guys repost the routine for me? The latest one? I am using dumbells instead of barbell for benching-anyone else doing that?. I only used the 85pounders today but I like dumbells better. Damn, todays workout was brutal...my back is killing me. I feel like I got beat down by Chewbacca. Great workout!

I'm doing the routine that is on page 1 except for I always do the squats first on mondays and fridays, and I do bench first on wednesday.

Cornholio,

Real food.

Lots of it.


Eat 20x bodyweight in food.

Eat fast food,etc - just watch the simple sugars and toy wil grow.

Creatine - must have
Multi Vit/mineral - must have
Whey protein - must have - especially right after training

...really that is about it.

Mske sure you are getting enough healthy fats - eggs, peanut butter etc....flax oil is a great supplenets as well.
