I’ve been alternating between hypertrophy and strength cycles (as written) with 2x2x2 and have been making great progress. I’m 46 and have a family so I can’t commit to a 3 or 4 day program consistently. I’m wondering if I could add a 3rd workout the weeks where I find that I have extra time. I was thinking of adding something like the full body deload (in Beyond) or just an easy workout where I do a single-leg exercise, a push, a pull and some low back/abs. It would be kind of like the suggestions in the “Training for Busy Men” article. I like doing 2x2x2 over a 2 day workout with squat/bench and deadlift/press because I like focusing on just one main lift per workout instead of two. Will adding an extra day screw things up?
Reread your first sentence until it sinks in.
You’re welcome.
