5/3/1 While Injured

Here you go

That’s about 2 weeks post ACL reconstruction onward.

Big takeaways;

-You can still train 1 leg. Train it. I’d rather have 1 strong leg than 2 weak ones.

-For deadlifts, look into seated good mornings. I’d use 3 variations (seated chain suspended buffalo bar good mornings, seated chain suspended SSB good mornings, and seated zercher axle good mornings off pins). You either want to suspend the bar or have it on ins, so that you don’t have to walk it out.

-I used seated press until I was confident to stand

-Reverse hypers are awesome
