About 4 months ago, I started CT’s Rennaisaince Body Development program. I figured this was a good program for me as I was new to strength training and I needed a program that was simple, would help me get better at the basic lifts, and would allow me to build a good base of strength. It worked pretty well because I gained about 20lbs of muscle (122lbs to 145lbs) and my strength went up (though my lifts are by no means impressive). Anyway, I feel like I’ve come as far with that program as I can and I need to start something new. I was thinking something like this:
MONDAY
- power clean 5 x 3
- squat 2 x 5, 3 x 3
3A) bench 5 x 5
3B) bb row 5 x 5 - romanian dead 3 x 8
- ab circuit
- bodyweight circuit
WEDNESDAY
- snatch 5 x 3
- deadlift 2 x 5, 3 x 3
3A) bradford press 5 x 5
3B) pullup 5 x 5 - good morning 3 x 8
- ab circuit
- bodyweight circuit
FRIDAY
Here’s where I need help. I was thinking Friday should be a repetition day but I don’t really know how to organize it to fit in the rest of my program.
My goals are a bit unique as I’m a martial artist (Jeet Kune Do) so I want to be fast and powerful but I’m also an actor, so I have to look good too.
