I know the whole heavy lifting stunts your growth thing is bullshit, so I’m willing to squat heavy. I’m going for strength, so my main lifts (bench, press, squat, dead) are all 5 sets of heavy maximum effort triples (5x3, should I change this?) and each main compound lift has assistance lifts to it. I’m going to be doing a 3 day a week regimen (exercises will still be the same irregardless of the day). Here’s the program:
Bench press: 5x3, 1x5,3,1 (progressively heavier) with 45 seconds-1 minute in between sets with a chest stretch after every set.
Dumbbell press: 4x8
Dips 3xF
Squat: 5x3, 1x5,3,1
Glute ham raises: 3x10
Leg press: 3x8
Good mornings: 3x8
At this point I take a break and stretch for around 3 minutes to give my muscles a break/
Overhead press:5x3
Dumbbell press: 4x8
Push up position isometric holds: 3x45 with chains
Deadlift: 2x3,1x,5,3,1
Barbell Row: 5x3
Dumbbell row:3x8 (or kroc rows with heavy ass weight for as many reps as possible:AMRAP)
Face pulls:4x10
Also, I’m 15 so I have those noob and teen gains working for me (I’m a mesomorph to the extreme) so is one day between workouts and 2 days on the weekends good enough for recovery?
