Hi all,
I have been training 531 1000% awesome and I’m on week 6.
I’m planning a 7th week and I’ll test training maxes to assess the weight used.
With that said, I would like to set a Hepburn cycle in fullbody style ABABAB…
A:
Squat 8x2
Bench 8x2
Rest 5’
Squat 3x6
Bench 3x6
Any vertical pull movement (chin/pull up)
B:
Deadlift 8x2
Press 8x2
Rest 5’
Deadlift 3x6
Press 3x6
Any row movement
On the rest day I’ll do conditioning LISS or HIIT.
Time ago I read that power (8x2) and pump (3x6) workout should be split in different mesocycle.
I have just read this from CT site

What do you think about?
Some guys separate the power and the pump. Sometimes meso to meso, or even day to day. Other guys mix them, within the same meso, or even in the same day. They all “work,” it’s just a matter of how they work for you.
If you’re an extrovert, who loves variety, mix away.
If you’re an introvert who hates change, don’t mix.

no advise?
how could there be trouble you haven’t got started yet.
you said what you are doing is mentally draining and you are ready for a change.
change to what you have laid out and see how you feel.

I know what you say instead I’m doubtful to mix or not.
My question arises from doubt because I read that Hepburn later advised to separate power and hypertrophy “programs”.
In any case, thanks.
