You know what’s really crazy? I’m finally, after 20 years of lifting, figuring out that I like different approaches for different body parts and lifts. I’ve always adopted one style and program at a time. All 5/3/1. All SGSS. All straight sets. The Best Damn Program.
I’ve somehow found my sweet spot in 2020. I like SGSS for deads and pressing. I like intensification techniques like rest/pause for back work, arms, and shoulders. I like 5/3/1 Training Maximally’s approach of hitting your TM for a single on squats.
It’s been quite glorious discovering these things. I don’t know if I could write and explain my training for someone else but I’m loving it.
