Topic as above.
Want to get to 5 x 40kg as soon as possible. Currently,I only do weighted chins once a week and the last time I did them was for a few sets of triples for 30kg.
If I start using GTG,I would do weighted chins at least 3 times per day-first thing in the morning,in the evening and before sleep. Each time probably 3 x 3 x 20kg for the first few days.
Would GTG work?
I am thinking of doing this routine
E.g.
Mon-overhead press+accessories+GTG chins
Tues-GTG chins
Wed-deadlift+accessories
Thurs-GTG chins
Fri-front squats+accessories+GTG chins
Sat-events
Sun-off
For my GTG chins,I won’t even go to failure. So CNS is not that greatly impacted right?
Maybe I just try it for the coming week and see how
what about this routine with GTG chins incorporated?
E.g
Mon:quad dominant day
Main lift:front squats-5x3
Assistance exercise:Bulgarian split squats-4x6
Wed:hip dominant day
Main lift:deadlifts-5x3
Assistance exercise: pull throughs-4x6
Fri-overhead work
Main lift:log presses-5x3
Assistance exercise:dips-4x6
Sat:events
Farmers walk-6 x distance(4 heavy,2 speed)
Sled pulling-6 x distance(3 heavy,3 speed)
Thinking of adding GTG chins on Mon,Tues,Thurs and Fri-maybe 3 times each day,3 sets of 3 with a comfortable weight.
As you can see the volume is pretty low and I am thinking of doing this routine for the next 4 weeks(these 4 weeks are rather low stress in my life with plenty of time for eating and resting- my recovery won’t be adversely affected)…
