My goals right now are to heal my groin so I can do heavy squats, deads, and power cleans again. I wanna get to a 365 bench and 225 military as well. Once I get those goals ill do a cycle

put up that btn military video man I've wanted to see your form on those! I've been doing them after regular military press just for balance with rear and front delts. I only use 3x10x95 lbs and touch my traps on each rep. Good stuff it gets me a good burn in my rear delts

damn bro i cant figure out how to get the video to my computer. I cant send it as an email because it says the video is too large, and when i try to download the blackberry program with the cd that came with my phone my computer wont let me install it, it just says it cannot finish installing.

I like the QVT. Are you still sticking to the original plan though?

 

[the.gladiator1987]

Thanks bro, I am still doing my routine but I am using QVT for squat and deadlift. I likethat way, so next workout I need to increase the average weight right?

185x5
235x5
275x5

For bench, next time take 300 and do 5 reps. Then rest for 5-10 minutes. Take 315. AIm for 5. You'll get them.

So, it should look like:

135 x 7
185 x 5
245 x 3
285 x 2
300 x 5
315 x 5 hopefully

Playing Devil's Advocate...

Why would doing more reps with a heavier weight make it easier for him to get 315x5? Wouldn't it just tire him out?

I would believe so but I dunno....it's not whether it's going to tire him out or not if he does 300x5 then 315x5 that is a hella of a lot more volume and he will get stronger and grow more than from 315x5 plain
