I get overtrained on west side. I have tried it three times and got injured everytime. louis guys are great squatters but only have one bencher so to speak of. bands and chains have thier place but are geared more for the assisted lifters. Check out the routine i posted on page six of this thread and see what you think. It is easily modified if you need more volume but all will benefit from it.
thanx for the reply, but i have a question about your sets.
when you say you do a warm up on your squats and deadlifts, "pyramiding" up so to speak, and then do max effort on the last one or two sets, do you do this on all exercises?
i'm sure the extra volume added by the warm ups aids in hypertrophy. right? i'm a college football player, and i'm looking to gain strength as well as size. is there a description or a scheme of sets and reps that you could give me that i might apply to dips or any other accessory work?

you know i dont count my warm ups. as of late i only ben doin 1 work set. my last heavy squat went like this
bar (55lb bar) for 20 or 25 reps i dont count
145 for 15 or 20
235 for 10 or so
325 for 6 or 8
415 for 3 or 4
505 for a dbl
595 for a dbl
645 for a dbl
705 for a dbl
755 for a dbl
and thenm my work set
805 for a single.
my warm ups are light to me so i dont count them
my last heavy bench went like this
135 for 10 or so
225 for 10 or so]
315 for 5 or 6
405 for 3 or so
495 for a dbl
545 for a single
and then my work set 585 for a single.
now these where max out days which i rarelt do.
typical squat is warm ups and then anywhere from 500 for 10 to 650 for 4 or 5 for worksets.
i aint worried about hypertrophy, i just wanna get stronger. but you know what as you get stronger you get bigger.
the center of any program geard for strength should consist of squats, deads or variation of, bench or dips and heavy back work. the smaller muscle groups take care of themselves. you can add bis and calves if you want but it aint necessary. but for looks I aint got a problem with it. check out the video clips in the video section of some of the guys/gals training in our gym.
