BBM Team,
Long time fan, here. First time posting. Some feedback follows as well as a question…
Some feedback after the Bridge 2.0:
- After running the program as designed (plus an addition 2 weeks tacked onto the end), while on a caloric deficit (and a specific macro profile) I lost ~10 pounds and 2-3 inches from waist. Currently 221 with a 39 inch waist. I am happy with those results and my appearance at (almost) 43 years old and 6 feet tall.
- My touch and Go Bench went UP 15 pounds (1X315 @ 10)
- My Pendalay-style Row went up (at least) 10 pounds (1X285 @ 9 w/ a bit of body english)
- My Press stayed stable at an estimated (1X205+)
- My Squat stayed close to/if not equal (1x507 * 9.5)
- Deadlift increased. Per estimates I would say at least 10 pounds stronger with notable more capacity.
- ALL assistance/variations went up notably. I could provide detail if required.
So, in sum, it was a much more productive “cut” than I would have guessed. Kudos for a terrific program!
Now my question:
What would be your feedback on running a program to focus on increased strength but maintain waistline? I could hypothesize some things but I would rather hear your opinion (run the Bridge again?).
Thanks again for a terrific program. It was excellent!
