Introduction:
Link to Program Description
This program is a template designed to match the program description linked above.
It is not intended as a stand-alone, this is all just some raw estimation that would give a general trainee
with a few years of experience a look at how the weights might be arranged. In reality he will
be estimating and resestimating as he runs through the program to peak everything at the right time.
Obviously, given that this is all very general, someone who does this program even once will be able to set
themseleves up much better in the future using even very limited experience, their brain, and a pencil rather
than hoping all the assumptions I made here actually work for them. Hopefully that's clear.
Instructions:
Only change yellow cells. Do not alter the Tonnage Calc worksheet.
Test Weight and Reps Achieved is to help you calculate your single rep max and 5 rep max.
These estimats are more accurate with lower rep tests and lifters who train using lower reps
i.e. testing with a set of 12 and a lifter who is typically used to 10-15 reps is going to decrease accuracy.
The deload/intensification calculation is based on your Week 4 top set and recalcs a new 1RM
Week 1 Offset is how far back you start from your Week 3 goal. The first time you do this 80% is probably a good number.
Keep in mind that it's the final 2 weeks that are the real core (i.e. you could start lighter and build over 6 weeks to the final 2).
Once you are familiar with heavy loading periods 10-14 days is about right for most people.
Set Interval is the percent change between sets based on the top set of the day for a given exercise (only relevant for days bu
The lower this value the less space between sets (i.e. higher workload and more density) the greater
the possibility of fatiguing too soon and limiting progress (i.e. fewer weeks of progression or too weak for high performance on
An easy way to increase load is by decreasing this incriment. A more advanced version would be making Monday and Friday
Note - this spreadsheet can't do that by setting it to 0% as cells are linked to 5RM and 5x5RM accordingly. But you can chang
Week 3/8 PR Increase is the amount to exceed current personal records (PRs) by. First time through one should start with 0%
in week 3 and then exceed in week 4 (same for week 8/9 respectively). Once you know what you are doing, feel comfortable a
and see how this is tolerated.
Tonnage is calculated based on core lifts, it is the combined sum of volume and intensity (%1RM). Basically a proxy for worklo
i.e. Weight Used X Reps = Tonnage. The cutoff is to make the calculation more relevant and not count light sets
towards the total since the impact from very light work is not going to be as significant (this is common in practice)
Obviously most people will need to round the weights. If you want to train by percents and be more precise with weight
selection than 5lbs incriments (i.e. two 2.5lbs plates), maybe look into microplates or even this really innovative/inexpensive
microchain solution. Unfortunately, this is more a problem for weaker/newer lifters as a given % of a small lift is inherently sma
