    Currently running your 70's powerlifting program, the volume is actually crazy. Feeling good so far and my right quad seems to catch up. Good program so far Alex!

    If I remember rightly, Christian Thibadeau suggests using the second set of the first ramp percentage as the starting percentage of the second ramp and so on.
    Eg - 82.5%, 85%, 87.5%
    85%, 87.5%, 90%
    87.5%, 90%, 92.5%
    90%, 92.5%, 95%

    this is magic, grey fkn magic, it just works. even though sometimes I would drop down, get to my 2nd wave, almost match the 1Rep from the first wave with the double but then be totally exhausted. other times I missed the 1Rep at wave 3, went for another 4th wave, then basically PR'd a double lmao. can very much recommend experimenting with this. perfect explanation, Alexander!

    I like wave sets on Front Squats, Pressing, Weighted Pull Ups, and Benching. It's a bit too fatiguing on squats now that my 1rm is 520, and it is soul crushingly miserable on deadlifts lol.

  • @HAMMERTIMEBB

    I did this with a 5 3 1 and hit a almost 50lb heavier deadlift. 315 was my old 1 rep max but I hit 365 for.the first time today

    When doing waves do you pause from each rep scheme for like 1 minute? Or just move on than pause more between each block

    Question: assuming you were using waves in this manner for push press, and pressing 3 days a week, would you do all three waves each workout or eg do two waves on two days and three on the other? Or maybe even one wave first day, two waves second day, three waves third day?

    • @BakerBinary
      @BakerBinary Рік тому

      Depends on what you can recover from, but you could also use undulated periodization, where you use a method like in this video for your push press and the other pressing days you can do volume/speedwork with lower percentages/rpe. This way you train different thresholds which makes recovery generally easier. But if you're a beginner or early intermediate, you can probably get away with the same thing for pressing all 3 sessions.

  • @ramblr5900
    @ramblr5900 3 місяці тому

    @AlexanderBromley whats your thoughts/opinion this WAVE set 5 reps of 80% then 1 rep of 92.5% ... 95% ... 97.5%? I been doing this for Deadlift Monday, Bench Tuesday, Squat Wedensday, Thrusday OFF. Secondly How long can you repeat this ? Can you do 6 work out sessions in a week with one day rest in between ... for how many weeks? Also is this accumulation or intensification phase?

  • @tomsettles6873
    @tomsettles6873 Рік тому

    Alexander - do you have many clients over 50? I'm 59 and can only handle 1-2 of sets on a weekly basis in the 1-4 rep range. What is a good bench press strength program for me to follow that has worked for your older clients?

  • @chriss2122
    @chriss2122 11 місяців тому

    For the wave loading, I get the general principle for any given week. However, what should you do week-after-week? Do you do waves of 3-2-1 one week, then increase the weight a little and do the same next week? Or do you vary the rep ranges in a 3-4 week cycle, like Wendler's 5-3-1? Cheers

    • @str1ker_eureka
      @str1ker_eureka 11 місяців тому

      Say your 1RM is 400 pounds-your wave structure could look like this:
      Wave 1: 320x3, 340x2, 360x1
      Wave 2: 340x3, 360x2, 380x1
      Wave 3: 360x3, 380x2, 400x1
      And then if you make all the reps on the third wave, try a fourth one:
      Wave 4: 370x3, 390x2, 410x1
      Basically the third wave should end in your current 1RM, and if you hit it, go onto the fourth wave. Depending on what reps you hit there, adjust your 1RM accordingly and repeat the same thing next week with the new 1RM. Hope that helps!

    • @jaredgreen1770
      @jaredgreen1770 7 місяців тому

      Since the best application for this is in a narrow band of reps (1-3), increase weight week to week and keep reps the same

  • @Grof2000
    @Grof2000 Рік тому +3

    well I'm not power lifter and I'm confused here , first set you go to 1 rep and that is for this week or you go to second wave and do 6 sets again and than finish third wave with 6 sets? I'm 62 just trying to keep up with those youngsters in gym :)

    • @OllieMartinGamer
      @OllieMartinGamer Рік тому +1

      Wouldn't bother with this at your age with all respect. However if you do, then it's all 3 waves in a work out. So 9 sets. Reps range 3,2,1 x3
