Decided I want a break from writing my own programs and would like to give a BBM template a try.
Which template would you recommend based on the following:
-
15 years of pretty consistent training experience
-
Plan on either maintaining my weight or possibly shedding 4-5lbs
-
Would like to set some squat, bench, and deadlift 1RM PRs over the next few months.
-
Have responded pretty robustly in the past (at least on the bench and deadlift) from training quite far from failure (sets of 3-6 @70-80% of 1RM, for example)
-
Enjoy adding “bodybuilding work” such as arm work, belt squats, back work after main lifts
-
Can hit the gym 4 times per week, but like to do conditioning work in the form of 4-5 mile runs @5-7RPE on two additional days
-
Have been training in the 5-20 rep range for the last 6 months, 8-12 sets per muscle group. Haven’t been putting much focus on the “big 3 though”
-
Would like each session to last no longer than about 1hr 15.
-
Have access to all the standard gym equipment, SSB, belt squat etc, but no bands or chains.
Looking at the template descriptions, I can’t decide between the strength, powerlifting, or powerbuidling templates. Which one would you suggest, and should I go for 1,2, or 3?
Many thanks!
