Are you not getting the progress you’re looking for using bulk 5×5 programs or by programming yourself?
First of all, have a look into the TRAINING PRIMER for more info on how to write your own programs. It’s not fucking rocket science, but it needs a bit of effort.
If that’s of no use, then try our FREE 12-WEEK POWERLIFTING PROGRAM. Yes, free.
Open this Google drive sheet, and create a copy to your own drive or print it out.
>> BARBELL CULT BASIC 12-WEEK POWERLIFTING PROGRAM <<
A straightforward, no BS linear periodization program with emphasis on the big three SBD. This program should familiarize you with the concept of swapping variations and manipulating volume and intensity. Unless you’re already an advanced lifter, you should be able to amplify your neuromuscular drive for bigger loads.
Before hitting the program, please familiarize yourself with the concept of autoregulation by measuring RPE. For example EliteFTS has an extensive article on the topic by no other than Mike Tuchscherer himself.
The program requires basic knowledge of how to perform powerlifting excercises and lifting in general. Prioritize clean execution in technique over max loads. Don’t skip sessions. Don’t overshoot RPE. Eat a balanced diet with at least maintenance level energy and aim for 2g protein per kilo of your bodyweight.
Would gladly hear some feedback and what type of results youre getting. But keep this is mind – its just one 12week program, its not be all end all and while you could repeat it, that’s not ideal.
