So I decided to switch programs after my flu because the EDT was too much. I was getting fatigued, not resting enough, not devoting enough time to rebuilding myself (that part of my time that actually builds muscle), and as a result, I wore out my body and picked up some germs. This new program, a Waterbury hypertrophy program, operates on a one-on, one-off cycle to give plenty of time for rest. I plan on doing cardio sessions on the in-between days, but the weight days are light enough to allow for that kind of tweaking. Also, while the program calls for 10 sets of 3 with two or three exercises supersetted against each other, I changed the protocol to allow for 30 quality reps on any given exercise, thereby providing the necessary stimulus to the muscle groups of the day without having to scramble for equipment in a crowded gym. Today’s exercise is listed below.
5×6 Bench press @ 95#
2×15 Cable row @ 70#
