Talking to a guy and he suggested I do powerlifting for 2 months to gain some size. He said to lift 2-3 times a week and to do squats, bench, deadlifts and lunges and that's it. I'm thinking of trying it for a couple months, but was wondering what others had to say about it. | ||

Don't know about the lunges but the rest works. Make those three your core exercises - one on each day and add exercises to it that correspond to those lifts. Like on deadlift day I also do heavy dumbell rows and chins. As well as barbell curls and heavy concentration curls - all heavy. I would recommend switching up the accompaning exercise for variety but try and keep most of your lifts compound and heavy. Get lots of sleep and lots of chow! Hope this helps | ||

The big 3 never hurt anybody. I'd stick to those and throw in some shoulder work. I'd focus on the big 3 and then some assistance exercises. | ||

I think the point of the guy's advice was to focus on the three all around developers to get some growth going. Do all three (4 with the lunges, chins too if you feel like it) on each workout day. It you try it, let us know how it works for you and what you think of it. ------------------ | ||

Yes, his point was to just do the basic movements each workout to get some growth going. Thanks for all the input! |
