New Chest Routine...........
« on: March 12, 2007, 06:35:40 AM »
I was reading a book hat showed a pretty solid 2x a week chest routine.  it's based off of the bench and your 5 rep max....so say right now my max 5 rep max is 175.  Day 1 would be 50%, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100%
then thursday or day 2 would be the same but the last set would be 3 reps of your 5x5 max multiplied by 1.02.  then the followig week, the 3 reps of 1.02% would be your last 5x5 session.....keeps increasing....what are your thoughts for today?
