How many
To conduct the programme you will need to determine your 14 to
20RM, 11 to 14RM, 6 to 11RM and 3 to 6RM. The amount of weight to be used for
each exercise is based on a percentage of the maximum amount of weight that can
be lifted one time for that exercise, generally referred to as one repetition
maximum (1RM). Where appropriate determine your 1RM for each exercise and then calculate the required weight as follows:
- 14 to 20RM = 60% of 1RM
- 11 to 14RM = 70% of 1RM
- 6 to 11RM = 80% of 1RM
- 3 to 6RM = 90% of 1RM
Programme
General notes:
- Perform all sets on an exercise and then move to the next
exercise
- Perform all sets until fatigue prohibits the completion
of an additional repetition
- For each exercise monitor the average number of
repetitions/set and if the range is exceeded then adjust the weights
accordingly at the next session
- Allow 2-3 minutes recovery between each set and 4-5
minutes between each exercise
- With each exercise use a 2/3 cadence, that is, a count of
two to move to the exercise end position and a count of 3 to return to the
exercise start position
- For weeks 18 to 30 repeat weeks 5 to 17
