This was the 4 week time crunch. I feel pretty good about it. Similar to all bbm programs so it’s not like they just crushed volume. The main differences are that week to week exercises and rpes stay the same, and that all the non comp lifts go to myoreps.
I also added arms, and generally had 1 to 2 days of football/sprints a week that I didn’t log. So overall I feel that I’ve been working hard, but still mostly in that 6-7 session rpe range.
I think bbm programming just works for me. My squat is basically flat over the past year and half but I think it’s starting to gain some momentum now. I’m really happy about my press and incline progress although the hypertrophy is there so I think the strength gains were due.
Their volume and single work means a lot of people with less structured programs will always realize gains on the programs, so Id they get a lot of fake credit for that. Lets see what their programs do over 6 months.
Not a fan of lower body myoreps, and generally wish they had more upperbody, but obv PLers will have slightly different goals
