You people suggesting a higher lift frequency per week program than 5/3/1, what program exactly did you have in mind for this situation?[/quote]
I agree, Jiu-Jitsu is taxing, I’m not so sure higher frequency is the way to go. I don’t think powerlifting and Jiu-Jitsu go together at all as it is. Good luck OP.[/quote]
He said he wants to get real strong and take himself to the next level. If he’s not working hard he’s not going to.
The program I would have in mind would be something like madcow or TM…hell he could even make for some progress on SS I bet. But if he is only benching BW for one rep, he can definitely get a lot more out of benching (or adding the press) more than once a week.
Not to diss on 5/3/1, but I think the program just work betters if you have a solid foundation first OR if you’ve lifted a long time and you know what assistance work will complete the package for you. OP doesn’t seem to fall into the latter.[/quote]
Agreed.
