Ok so I am starting GLP in a two days. Should I be taking 1 day in between or 2 moving forward? I get that I should do GLP for lets say Squat and Bench Press. Am I doing just those two exercises but doing them EVERY time I am in the gym? Or do I do Squats on Day 1, BP on Day 2, Squats on Day 3, etc....

How do I know what to do for exercises on the German Loading Pattern? Also, for workout 5, is it JUST warm up/stretch and then 1RM? Also, here are my results from the past few workouts: A. Yes. You can do EDT blocks afterwards if so inclined, but they're not mandatory. With respect to not know what ...

Ok... Workout #4 is done. It hurt. Only Achilles heal here is that there isn't enough weight on the low cable machine for me to do deads. It says "weight is per cable" but there is only one cable. I had it stacked out on 95, so was it double that? 95 seems light, even for a small guy like ...

That does help... A lot. Last question - on the EDT blocks, MUST the exercises be performed alternating? Can I do Ex1, Ex1, Ex1, Ex2, Ex2, Ex2, etc.? Also - what would Workout #3 be? A. Workout #3's EDT block is going to look a lot like workout #2's... except you're going to be shooting for a highe...

That does help... A lot. Last question - on the EDT blocks, MUST the exercises be performed alternating? Can I do Ex1, Ex1, Ex1, Ex2, Ex2, Ex2, etc.?

A. Yes, but if you absolutely can't feel free to do it in the fashion you're espousing here.

Ok... um... So how do I know what to do today? Lol. According to the sticky: DAY 2 - SQ 1.) Perform your 6 sets of German Loading Pattern 1 for the SQ. Take adequate rest between sets to ensure complete intra-set recovery. 2.) Perform the following movements in EDT fashion as above: Romanian Deadlif...

Ok maybe I'm missing something here. I'm looking at the version I have on my PC and I'm lost. When did EDT come in? Looking at the copy I have, it says that Workout 1-5 are just standard workouts and then it goes into the German Loading Patterns but EDT isn't mentioned until Page 32. I know you dire...

My left side is smaller (although I don't think weaker) than my right. My left arm has less definition and size. What can I do to even it out?

There are no loose bars but there is a low cable tower. What would the movement and form look like on that?

Right but I don't have a barbell at the gym... That is my dilemma. Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

That second EDT block of leg sled + deadlifts looks awful demanding, especially since you've worked the deadlift hard already. Suggest picking just one of those two movements or alternatively, performing a less demanding variation like the Romanian DL. You may benefit by doing just the Romanian DL ...

Ok - you know what you are doing. Today kicked my butt. Only problem is that I am going to a Planet Fitness which has machines, dumbbells and smith machines. I tried doing deads on the smith machine but it just isn't working. I did the leg sleds on the leg press machine which I think is equivalent b...

Ok... I'm still really confused but I like your strategy. On the EDT stuff, is it that I'm supposed to stick with the same weight? Workout 1, to be performed this Saturday: - Bench Press: 1 x 12 at approx 60% of max weigh for warmup - Bench Press: 1 x 8 at a weight that puts me at near failure on th...

Maybe I'm stupid but I'm really confused by what I should be doing for Feast 1-5 and thereafter. The blueprint doesn't directly talk about changing rep scheme for the 1-5 but it does talk about it in the sample template. Also, I don't get this which is listed right after the bench press: EDT BLOCK -...
