    It's the structure of the program. There are 10 and 8 set phase for volume accumulation, then 5s and 3s for increasing intensity.

    Probably easier to understand if I just post a screencap of the program instead of trying to explain.



    However, I am running what's called Inverted Juggernaut, which flips the sets and reps during the 10s and 8s blocks, and puts mandatory rest restrictions in place. The idea is to keep technique and explosiveness up while still getting in volume to increase work capacity, because most people's last few reps tend to get ugly as shit once fatigue sets in.



    The 5s and 3s remain the same as original Juggernaut.

    Greatly appreciated. I've found something that I love in Strongman, and I'm going to do whatever it takes to get myself in shape to be as competitive as possible.

    It's going to be a long road though, and I've accepted that. For my height (5'10") I'll likely need to end up in the 215 class at least. Going from 163 to 200+ without getting unacceptably fat is gonna take some years, even if I were to start punching the needle nitrous.

    Ok, I see what the concept is. Each week is a new stimulation to the muscle as far as rep range and load is concerned.

    Precisely. It's essentially an overly complicated but more scientifically validated and much higher volume 5/3/1 style of programming.

    It looks nearly identical to some of my powerlifting routines and some of my baseball training I did in college. Identical as far as setup and methodology I should say. Mine was unusually periodized into 3 phases. Hyperthropy, power and in season. I would have some micro periods for like recover after season, slight injury rehab during season if it can up and so on. My rep scheme was usually a 5x5, 10/8/6, 3x3, 20/15/10. Typically in that order, that was for all lifts except axillary work for say shoulders or some light rehab or focused work.

    Ahh, gotcha. Yeah, I don't bother periodizing accessories, as I can just push those to failure without having to worry much about fatigue. Or I'll set a rep range, and as soon as I can hit beyond that, I'll up the weight.

    2700 kcals on tempo only days.

    3050 on lifting days.

    Meal one is a Milk Protein Concentrate shake and a couple of apples.

    Two is either a whey shake and blueberries on lifting days or a pint of Halo Top on tempo days.

    Three is a can of either pinto, black or kidney beans and a protein bar of some sort (usually a Quest bar or other higher fat bar). Then some raw carrots and cucumber whenever I get to work.

    Four is tilapia, either white rice or a sweet potato, mixed veg and pecans.

    Five is the same as four, except a russet instead of a sweet potato.

    Six is either a bag of spinach and a couple of salmon filets, or a bag of green beans and a boneless skinless chicken thigh.

    10s realization deadlift day.

    Vertical Jumps: 4x3

    Jesus Christ, higher rep deads still suck, despite the improvement in conditioning.

    Tempo conditioning day.

    Tempo Bike:
    10x30 sec 120rpm+10 pushups/15 sec rest
    4.5 minute active rest
    10x30 sec 120rpm+20 situps/15 sec rest

    One more of these tomorrow before the reps drop back to six, but duration increases to 40 seconds, and climb by two reps per week until hitting ten again.

    Tomorrow starts bench 8s Inverted and increases tempo time.
    I don't do programmed deloads. Will likely be another nine weeks before I actually need one.

    Had two fucked up molars extracted yesterday. Trying to eat chicken breast with nut butter is hilarious when half of your face feels like you've had a mild stroke.

    Tempo work yesterday and this morning. Might go hit the accumulation session for deadlifts this afternoon, as soon as my new gum piercings stop bleeding.

    I probably should be hospitalized, in a cushioned room staffed by white coats, if nothing else. Especially considering that I don't deload and have started doing some two-a-days with my conditioning work.

    It's small wonder that I'm not gaining weight on 3000+ kcals at 163 lbs. xD

    One nasty case of food poisoning later, I'll be heading in for overhead work today. Took a full day off yesterday, and spent about 85% of it split between sleeping, shitting, and utilizing $40 worth of Pedialyte and protein shakes to keep myself from totally dehydrating.

    Food poisoning really sucks man, happened to me in Thailand from a chain restaurant, I had a friend with me in case I dehydrated too badly and fell asleep, it was really bad lol like if you had demons inside. Same with norovirus... Props to you for managing to down protein powder, I would have vomited just by the smell of anything. Hope you get well.
