After

Looks pretty good to me

With probably 5 minutes of cardio as warm up

@Deleted User Yeah I am not really doing it for strength. I have followed quite a few strength programs. This is for volume.

@Deleted User Thanks. The only thing it needs is a good sprint day.

@Deleted User I do proper deadlifts. NO romanian deadlifts or straight leg deadlifts for me. So I hardly count it as a back workout.

Ok

I usually do like 15 - 20 minutes of cardio before lifting, both to warm up and because Im usually spent by the time I finish a lifting session

If anyone is considering joining a local sparring club but thinks they’re not in good enough shape... just remember- it’s not the size of the man in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the man. https://youtu.be/JhZpTjj3KxM

@Alfred-22 waaaaaaaay too much volume in my opinion. It's going to be really hard for you to progressively add weight on your compound lifts doing 10x10 reps

I would highly recommend cutting your volume in half and just doubling your lift frequency

I would still deadlift on squat day since it is a posterior chain dominant lift so it works perfectly in conjunction with squats, but 10x10 on squats AND deads is asking for an injury.

Oosh I missed the 10x10 part

That’s 200 reps of the two biggest lifts

I was considering going to 5 x 10

I really wanted to try a really high volume with big lifts. Just kind of see how my body reacts

This definitely isnt a long term plan. Just 6 weeks of radically high volume and then maybe decrease volume by half. AFter I would go back to standard strength training.

I am considering the criticism. I will be sticking with the 10 x 10 for the main compound lift but I will decrease the other exercises to 3 x 10.

@Nick-NJ @Deleted User How is that

I'm by no means an expert, but I'm just curious, cause I've never seen a program with this high volume

- why? what's the purpose?

How is your body meant to react?

high volume means lots of hypertrophy

I hope you get shredded like a Greek god

Yes but 10x10 just seems extreme.

I've seen people who do it

ik this little black dude, Richard hawthorne i think

he does that with deadlift

he's incredibly strong pound for pound

That guys name is Richard Hawthorne? ahaha, that's awesome

Man. That's seriously impressive.

high volume training has its benefits, i try to do my strength sets first, then do 5x10 of a decent weight

the pump gets unreal

and it really helps engrain form

oh and always beltless

Yes no belt. Hypertrophy is the goal. It will be interesting to see how my muscles respond to the training. I just finished my first set of 100 reps for Bench and holy crap. 5 sets in the pump was nice. 8 sets in I could feel anything. I would only recommend this if you have a Goode strength base

What's the benefit of belt/no belt?

Belt is good for heavy lifts. Contrary to popular opinion using a belt doesn't really weaken your core.

However I just don't see any need to use a belt for weight you push in high volume training

Belt exists mostly for safety and for helping maintain internal pressure during a lift by giving your core something to push against
