This program (and part 2) have a low-volume-per-workout protocol that differs from the recommendations in articles “Block Training for Beefy Abs” and “5 Things You Can Train Every Day”. I’m wondering which to follow. The BDWP says you can do ONE of the following each day: calves, abs or forearms. The other two articles recommend daily ab work, and the possibility of doing daily forearm work as well (I’d have to think calves would be included as well, since they are a low-impact exercise that wouldn’t affect recovery too much). Looking for some guidance on which protocol to follow: daily ab and forearm work, or just one per day and alternate the chosen add-on muscle? CT…would love your opinion on this. Thanks!
You won’t stay with any one style of program the rest of your life. Stop overthinking, pick one, run it till the end, learn, and move on.
All are correct.
Based on your response it seems like you haven’t read any of those articles, or at least not all of them. If you had read them then you’d realize that the Block Training and 5 Things articles are not programs. This isn’t about overthinking, this is about trying to maximize progress without overtraining. Isn’t that what we’re all after?
