4 week time crunch: bench v.s. press volume

I’ve downloaded the 4 week time crunch template.
I see that the pressing volume & frequency is higher than the bench press frequency.
Am I reading this right, that the S-B1 is a press and not a bench-press?

I actually don’t like pressing that much, so I’m going to go for the suggested style of BP instead.
Any specific reason I shouldn’t do this?

It’s designed specifically to minimize the time needed to change equipment in a busy gym.
It’s only four weeks, so I wouldn’t worry about it.
you’re of course free to do whatever you’d like, and any BP variation you’d do would be fine there.

OK. I didn’t realize it was even optimized for saving time between lifts.
I train in my home-gym. So no worries there.

I have a few days before I start. So still time enough to change my mind. :smile:

Another consideration to think of is, at least in my experience, my press detrains significantly even if I just back off the volume for a few short weeks. My bench usually holds up just fine during lower volume phases. I’m not sure how your body reacts, but this is at least some food for thought.

I have no idea how my press responds … I don’t care about my press that much. :wink:
