Thanks man! Happy to get to 5 reps (3 more from the last time I tried 405), but reps 4 and 5 were grinders, so sticking to that 385-405 until those 5 reps @ 405 are super explosive.

My favorite article on T-Nation has shown up again! One of these days I have to actually run the program though lol.

@Chris_Colucci do you guys pitch to the coaches on what topics for a article would be great or do the coaches decide themselves? I would love for Dan to write a 10-Secrets to Building Mass part 2 type of article (even though we all know the secrets haven’t changed lol)!

For a 4 Day full body routine. No MORE than 6 exercises per session. Quality greatly diminishes if you add more.

Quality over quantity like usual!

great workout, and some nice PR’s.

Does anyone like Burpees?

Thanks man! You know sometimes you have to love what you hate lol. I’ve been doing these 10-15 min conditioning sessions or metcons at the end of my workouts. It sucks lol.

But I have noticed not breathing as hard during my sessions. I rest between 45-60 seconds between all my sets (even the heavy top sets) so I think my conditioning is level really starting to show. Can really fly through my workouts. I got the idea of flying quickly through my workouts when @T3hPwnisher got the 531 BTM done in under an hour. I knew when I saw that my conditioning was fucking horrible lol. Conditioning for sure lets you push harder during the workout.

That was a big indicator for me as well.

You’re kickin’ some serious ass man, good work!

@T3hPwnisher is a beast. under an hour for BTM is no joke.
I can get through my sets quite quick. But I would have to lower the weight a bit. When amrapping a topset I need a bit more time before the attempt and after too.
But I’m in a good condition anyway.
It looks like a solid plan with 6 exercises and SS them. Might try it someday
