I’m finishing up my first year of college, and I’ve gotten in really bad shape. I started the year at 6’4 ~185 (I know, pretty skinny, but I was happy since I hadn’t been lifting much at the time.) Now I’m a flabby 210, and I’m trying to plan a program for this summer.
As far as goals, my main one is just to get back in shape and get strong. I like the idea of the 10x3 set/rep scheme, but wasn’t sure about frequency and exercise selection. Exercises I’d like to include : bench, deadlift, chins, rows, overhead pressing, core work (not positive if the gym has a squat rack). I’d also like to do some HIIT to get my overall fitness level up too
My old PR’s (over a year ago)
Bench:187
Deadlift:319
Squat:231
Strength goals (deadline: mid August)
Bench: 225
Deadlift: 375
Squat: 300
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Graham
edit, sorry, meant 10 sets of 3 reps, not the other way around.
