    I've been reading your posts about sling shot training and i've noticed you separate your back workouts by overall, width and thickness. how do you determine how many sets for each part of the back during the blast phase? is there an overall set amount for total back workouts?

    if i was planing a 12 week cycle of test e (then week 14-18 pct), would that change the length of the blast cycle to include pct? how should i arrange my lifting cycle for that?

    thanks for the help

    Yes, I've never understood why some people treat back thickness and back width as the same muscle group. Rows build thickness and pull-ups build width.

    The amount of sets needed for back thickness and back width are a very individualistic thing. As of late I have been doing well by employing 12 sets for back width and 12 sets for back thickness during a reload. During a deload it's been 6 sets for back width and 6 sets for back thickness.

    In regards to your cycle, 1) begin the test enan at the beginning of the 2 week prime so it will be kicking it as you enter the 12 week blast. 2) start pct at week # 10 of the blasting phase. 3) For the last two weeks of the blast you might want to peform a deload to allow for better recovery.
