Absolutely; there is no trend other than rate of improvement, with intermediate and advanced improving FASTER than absolute beginners. Crazy or what....
.


Have you considered the reason the intermediate and advance progress quicker is because of the advanced GPP within the muscles. When I did the first squat session I was amazed at how hard the session was when looked at on paper (although I have to admit I really enjoy a bulls out squat session)

[quote)For reference, you are the 17th (out of 17) to make the same claim of a profound improvement on week 3 (over week 1); Something I would be quick to dismiss if it wasn't something I had experienced and seen with my own eyes.

100% success rate is excellent, you will be publishing a book soon - have you also looked at ages and experience to gage if there is a trend?

Just finished my first strength Meso and results are looking good. Over the 3 weeks I have improved in all 3 lifts but more importantly for me was how easy the first weeks totals became in week 3:

Box Squat - 180 week 1, 190 week 3.
Board press (3 rep board)- 140 week 1, 147.5 week 3.
deficit deadlift - 180 week 1, 195 week 3.

From what I've seen, the most experienced lifters make the biggest jump in progress; not sure why although I could speculate. I need to test more with more people to make any bold statements on top of what I already am


I'm halfway through my first strength meso so ill let you know how i'm getting on at the end of each cycle.

I tend to do 1 strength, 1 weakness and 1 prehab/rehab
Or another great choice is 3-plane...
So on a pull day:
Shrug (upwards pull)
Bent over row (horizontal pull)
Lat pull down (downwards pull)
On a press day:
Ohp (upward press)
Dumbbell press (horizontal press)
Tricrp ext (downward press)
Such a set up is great when further away from comp as it will cover the most part....



Thanks, I will putting something together and start next week..

I too am training 4 days a week and my gains are soaring....
Mon - Squat
Tue - Bench
Thu - Deadlift
Fri - Altered grip bench to stress weakness (wider grip at the min to fix weak pecs).
However.... I tend to do dead accessory after squat, and squat accessory after dead. This tends to allow me to go a little heavier on the supplementary stuff. Also, Fridays accessory I do all the nancy stuff like stretching


Sounds sensible, although I need to do a bit more of that nancy stuff now adays - the curse of going past your 40's.

How many accessory exercises would you recommend, would two to three on the main lift days be enough?

Aaron,

The program looks great, I can see now why you have been raving about it so much on Facebook and I will let you know how I get on with it. I'm currently hammering a West side variant at the moment but finding the 4 days a week draining (must be my age Happy )

Dave
