Does anyone here use Prilepin’s table as a guideline for their training?

I am interested in this table and I have been applying it to different routines, to see if they are in line with the table.

I am guessing that the table is only for the development of maximal strength. I don’t recall seeing more than 6 reps recommended per set.

I think there is a book out on designing your own routines based on the table. I will see if I can find it.

it is a good guideline. It explains a lot about the Westside protocol - Louie Simmons applies it.
Its also helpful in designing your own workouts.
Some of Chad Waterbury’s programs break the rules of this chart and he explained why in one of his treads.

“A system of multi-year planning in weighlifting” by Medvedyev shows how the table was benifical to the russians. You should check it out.
