#Bigger leaner stronger workout routine how to#

I still can't figure out how to do it without massively cheating. Lateral and rear delt raises in the 4-6 rep range is fucking difficult. Slow progress, mind you (I aim to increase by 1-2 reps per exercise per week), but progress nevertheless. I eventually found it difficult to progress using the 8-10 or even 6-8 rep range, but I'm consistently making gains on the 4-6 rep range despite being on a cut. The 4-6 rep range for the most part is really, really good. I'd stay on that until progress starts to stall. It also eases you in the whole lifting thing, and I feel that 3x/week is just right to not burn a beginner out. I wouldn't recommend it for complete beginners - personally, I benefited from doing compound lifts at least twice a week (for example, the AWR beginner program), as it gives you more opportunities to progress and lift more weight. It's basically a variation of 5/3/1 - Mike himself calls it a powerbuilding program. I was hesitant to go on it at first because of the bro-split and thinking that I needed to hit each body part 2x per week, but I found myself recovering better and making steady progress following Mike's principles even while I'm on a cut. This is the program I've been using since October and I'm really loving it.
