Thanks all for the replies.

I suppose one of the things I was curious about is that I saw a PL making a PR of something like 600 pounds. I was wondering, does that mean that this person would workout with, say 585 for a set of 3 - something to that effect. Another example is there is a post in this forum (I believe) where a guy is squatting 835 pounds (IIRC). Since that was a PR for the guy, I doubt that was a workout set, but would I assume he’d be working out in the 700 lb range?[/quote]

Eric Lilliebridge (835 squat guy) details his training on Paul Carter’s blog:

Part 1:

Part 2:

It’s a good read.[/quote]

His routine at the end of the 2nd part looks good, is this based off any known programs? Has some similarities to westside but maybe better for raw lifting. I kind of want to give a program a try where you alternate squat/DL weeks.

I was checking out an old training log from when I first start trying to improve the big 3 (instead doing stupid shit for football). It looked exactly like this:

Monday: Squat- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1
Wednesday: Bench- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1
Friday: Deadlift- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1

Took every 4th week off and pushed the weights up every workout.

My bench and dead saw a little improvement but my squat went through the roof. This is about as basic as it gets.

same dude… im still looking for a powerlifting routine too. i dont know enough about powerlifting to set up my own program and i dont know anybody who would set one up for me, so im kinda fucked for right now until i get out of high school and stop playing football.

but right now im tryin to balance between powerlifting and football. StormTheBeach suggested that i do 5/3/1 for football so im definitely gonna do that next year.
