Hey Jim, I need your help.
I’m currently in the army (I live in Israel we serve 3 years) and am in basic training.
I do not have access to the army gym untill I’m done with basic training. Which is for another 4-5 months. The army itself doesn’t fatigue me or anything so this is not a problem. I come home nearly every weekend for 2 days - Friday and Saturday.
How would you recommend programming my training to try and maintain as much strength as possible? I was thinking maybe doing Squats and DL 5/3/1 on Friday and maybe a little bit of assistance work, and then BP and OHP 5/3/1 on Saturday with a bit of assistance work, going for Joker Sets in every lift if I’m not having a horrible day.
If it matters at all my competition PRs are SQ 474, BP 242 (had a bad day, I benched 254 at the gym a week everlier) and DL 488 - also bad day, I probably have a 500 in me, and 165 OHP (did it in the warmup room after the Deadlift)
