    Powerlifter...is this 2 much

    Am I going to run into over training with a routine like this one. I will be eating around 400g protein, and carbs are high. I will be running cycle during this time. Looking for bulk and strength.

    Cardio 3 days a week along with abs and forearms:

    Monday:
    Speed day for squat 10sets for 3 reps
    2 more excercises for quads
    2 excercises for calves

    Tuesday:
    Heavy Chest - beat max for 2 reps with 2 negatives on last set
    Light tri's - 2 excercises
    side delts - 1 excercise 4 sets
    front delts - 1 excercise 4 sets
    4 sets of shrugs

    Wednesday:
    back width 3 excercises
    bi 2-3 excercises

    Thursday:
    Heavy Squat - beat max for 2 reps
    hams 2-3 excercises
    calves

    Friday:
    Speed day Chest 10sets 3 reps
    Heavy Tri's 2-3 excercises
    Rear delts 1 excercise 5 sets
    4 sets of shrugs

    Saturday:
    Back Thickness 2-3 excercies
    Bi's 2-3 excercises



    Should I forget the 2 days for legs and take more off time due to my bench being my main concern for compeition? I'm trying to get my squat up 2 so thats why I have them split up...just looking for some input.. Thanks

    WAY to much!!!!!! WOW, 6 days a wk???? no way!! not for powerlifting IMO. four at the most. also, are you training the deadlift, you cant max every wk either, and you should not do negatives in the press every wk either. go to the powerlifitng forum, read the programs i posted, i think the westside template will help you out.
