Current Bodybuilding Cycle: Week 9 of 11
(Not Scored)
Bodybuilding Cycle 4: Week of October 21 - January 3 (11 Weeks)
Goal: The goals are to stay focused and rest just long enough so that you can perform the next set with quality and control unless stated otherwise.
Keep your attention on each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not done “for time” but treat them like you are limited on time. Keep a visible clock running to keep you accountable.
Progression: The main lifts will follow a 6x6 at a lower intensity with the accessory lifts alternating between sets of 10 and 15. The goal is to maintain strength gains while giving the body a little bit of rest for this cycle. We want the joints feeling good and athletes feeling strong. We will focus on RPE for this cycle and go based on feel. If you feel good, go heavier. If not, stay light and give your body a rest. The Shock method will be alternating days for each week and should be the focus of the week. The goal is to hit each of those with all out effort. There will also be 2 “heavy weeks” where the RPE will be high and the reps will be low. Go heavy and push yourself here.
Length: This cycle will be a 11 week long cycle starting with a familiarization week. We will then move throughout the cycle with 2 heavy weeks and a max at the end of the cycle.

Bodybuilding RPE Scale
(Not Scored)
RPE 1-3 || This should be a weight that an athlete can move with ease throughout the intended rep range.
RPE 4-5 || This is a weight that provides a moderate amount of resistance but the athlete feels like they could double the intended rep range with the weight they chose
RPE 6-7 || This is a moderate-moderate/heavy weight for the athletes. This should provide a challenge for the intended rep range but should not be something that they are worried of failing. The rest needed between sets should be minimal.
RPE 8-9 || This is a near maximal effort for the intended rep range. Athletes should need and want adequate amount of rest between the sets at this RPE.
RPE 10 || This is a max effort for the intended rep range. The athlete should be fully taxed at the end of each set.

Current Bodybuilding Cycle: Week 8 of 11
(Not Scored)
Bodybuilding Cycle 4: Week of October 21 - January 3 (11 Weeks)
Goal: The goals are to stay focused and rest just long enough so that you can perform the next set with quality and control unless stated otherwise.
Keep your attention on each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not done “for time” but treat them like you are limited on time. Keep a visible clock running to keep you accountable.
Progression: The main lifts will follow a 6x6 at a lower intensity with the accessory lifts alternating between sets of 10 and 15. The goal is to maintain strength gains while giving the body a little bit of rest for this cycle. We want the joints feeling good and athletes feeling strong. We will focus on RPE for this cycle and go based on feel. If you feel good, go heavier. If not, stay light and give your body a rest. The Shock method will be alternating days for each week and should be the focus of the week. The goal is to hit each of those with all out effort. There will also be 2 “heavy weeks” where the RPE will be high and the reps will be low. Go heavy and push yourself here.
Length: This cycle will be a 11 week long cycle starting with a familiarization week. We will then move throughout the cycle with 2 heavy weeks and a max at the end of the cycle.
