Nah, I'm going to stick with what you outlined. It makes more sense to wave a bit the volume and intensity of the workouts.

WEEK 2:

WEEK 3:

2x3 MSEM

It has to be 40, looks to high even with the angle considerations.

Yeah it sounds cool. I guess I'll do today 90x8x3 and go with 100x5x3 on Thursday. I might throw in a MSEM workout every now and then for potentiation/rest purposes.

Well it's squat + assistance (usually 2 supersets of 2x5) two times per week
and
Bench + assistance two times per week
The third day is an explosive and whatever day.
So it's:
lowerbody1
upperbody1
explosive (clean/jumpsquat and some back work)
rest
lowerbody2
upperbody2
rest
and
Bench + assistance two times per week

Yes but 3x8 and 3x5 with the same weight?
So if I do 3x8 on Sunday with 90 kg, then I should do 3x5 on Thursday with the same 90?

That song is great. Heard it first in a VC mix.
And adarqui looks a bit like Mike Miller.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / 3x8 or 3x5?
« on: October 30, 2010, 03:47:15 am »
That's the question. Is 3x8 good for my current goals which are hypetrophy and some strength or is 3x5 a high enough of a volume to generate hypertrophy with proper food while also creating more strength since heavier weights are used?
I tend to focus better on 3x5 because the sets are shorter so I don't lose my focus in the sets, but I don't know about the total amount of volume. 15 reps seems so little.
What do you think?

Why do you have to "buy" everything. I guess all you western guys are spoiled with money.

Exactly. Plus that nobody knows you're going to dunk. You might take a layup, pull up for the jumper, turnover the ball, get fouled etc.
In a dunk contest you always expect a dunk, so it's not that spectacular.
