Title: Anyone else simplify there workouts around fall?
Post by: LatsMcGee on October 21, 2009, 04:12:01 AM

I pretty much drop BBing training around this time of year and concentrate on lifts rather than any specific muscle groups.

I'm doing the Bill Starr 5x5 right now with a few slight mods.  Instead of Bench/Deadsor Row/Squats I'm doing DB Benchs, High Pulls, and Front Squats.

Good exercise selection for the 5X5's. Back in the mid-west and east, some BB'ers will switch to a heavier lifting program. And heavier eating during fall & winter.Can gain muscle mass that way. Spring brings them back to true BB'ing style workouts & diets. In SOCal, not so much. Usually pretty nice weather all year round. Good Luck.

I actually do the opposite.


Something must be wrong with me. I even diet during the holidays when all that good home-cooking and extra candy, cake and cookies are lying around.


Been doin it this way for years. WTF?

I often take a minute this time of year to reaffirm the difference between 'there', 'they're', and 'their'.
