I looked ages ago. It's the same rehashed information on the free articles and pod casts as well as videos.

I also don't think his programs in the books are great. It's from his experience and he's not exactly on the natural side of things. That being said the principals remain constant and I think you could rejig it a bit.

Juggernaut method seems okay but to me for a natural lifter it misses frequency, isn't it only squatting and benching once a week?

The championship program imo offeres more frequency with still a similar upfront hypertrophy wave. That being said again I'd rejig it a bit, especially if you have any ohp goals as it's not included at all

wait are you from Aus?



In the states

E: I havent read the new one yet, I'm going to borrow hers before I buy it.. But the bare bones are you're supposed to do minimum 30 sets on each body part per week, or at least that's what I've understood.

Once I'm done reading and learning more about it, I'll let you know.

Turning the feet too far out can cause a LOT of knee issues later down the road though. It collapses the arch and causes the knees to cave. I'd personally rather squat with shoes or plates behind my heels than rotate my feet too far out.


I get that and I try to keep my feet as close as I can to the proper position (which, imho, leaves the toes out a bit anyway). I'm just so physically buggered up from sports injuries that most Olympic lifts challenge my flexibility. I work on correcting my physiology and form without furthering harm, but I resist some methods mostly because I don't feel comfortable with add-ons.

@ Juggernaut 2.0: I think every program needs to be tweaked a little. If we don't tinker with things I believe we don't align our routines authentically. It's almost like saying no every once in a while even when you know damned well yes might the right answer. You just have to do it to be you, and if you don't do it you don't get the benefit of your own experience.

And alright, I have my method all set up.. Bought the book on pdf, have it saved too.. So <~~ lmk if you guys need any 'advice'.

Basically i'll be doing the exact same thing as I was before when I started the method 2.0, except the accessories are different.. They emphasize a shit ton on conditioning and on core training, so I can't wait to see how this goes.. The style i'm doing has me resting 60-90 seconds between sets, so it incorporates the conditioning in the actual movements..



Also, they have 7 different varieties I can try out, most of them look fucking awesome.. But so far, this book has been pretty epic..

well that's bad ass

So these are my OG stats

Squats: 210 5x5
DL: 185 1x5
Bench: 145 5x5
OHP: 75 5x5
Row: 85 5x5

This is my PR for RM

Squats: 315 x 12 / 370 x1
DL: 385 x7 / 445 x1
Bench: 175x 9 / 205 x1
OHP: 135 x3 / 145 x1

I do 235 high bar to warm up, 185 are light RDLs now and 75lbs OHP is usually around my 2nd warmup set..

So today was squats

225 5x10 with 60-90 second rests between sets.
Last set was AMRAP at RPE9.. ended up doing 17, felt like I had 2 in the tank.

RDLS 3x12 @185 lbs

Lunges 3x20 steps @90 lbs

3x30 second planks

Muh ass cheeks are sore from lunges

E: also for fun, I'm up from 202 to 215 since June 19th.. I've actually managed to lose an inch off of my waist measurement and hips, and gain .25 in my neck and half an inch in my calves.

Fuck yer.
