Its a Russian Squat Routine, meant to increase your squat figures in 6 weeks, but its actually tough though.

I actually havent decided yet, at first I thought of hitting a regular bb`ing routine. I actually never had one before, most of the time it was compound.I might want to see how does a bb`ing routine work for me. I seriously need to shape up a little. fukkin small arms, weak chest. lol. But dang, the marunde thing looks great. I`ll come back with a progress report 1st, I just wished I could take a lil video of my PR . sheesh.

Ya know what, I thought so as well on the RSR, I was wondering how should I slow 112kg on the oly bar. hahaha. Probably round it up to 115.

HB did say that endurance/strength level will suffer during the end of the push/pull split. Thats why I am still in a dilemma.

This is option 1,

Chill for 6 - 10 weeks without the RSR and proceed with the HB Push Pull. I wanted to try incorporating machines and free weights + smith on 6-8 reps, 4-6 sets during my next routine to see how does my body respond.

Option 2

Screw the chills, go for another RSR cycle and hit 150kg of squats. kekeke. But I have to come up with a routine. And I`m fukkin lazy to do that. hahahahha!

Option 3

Rest for a week and during that rest period I`ll come up with something ( This is last on the list though )


What ya think?

Well, NOT really..the key to this routine, is compounds. You can row, but I wouldn't recommended exerting your lower back. Maybe do it on a bench, supported rows. Would be good.

Btw, how long have U squatted? And ur weight/height again?

I weigh 165. Im not sure about my height, around 165-167cm. I`ve been squatting for quite some time, about a year. Well actually less than a year.

I'll be ....around the middle of KL. At Heritage Row area there..entah hapa nama tempat tu lah....

And whatever you're doing, half of them I've never done them. Whatever it is, the key is having fun doing it. So yea, go try that out if U want to. Maybe someday, I'll do a "Lateral Cable Isolated Delt Side Fly Ultra Megamassmonstergimmemuscle Bicep Curl"

Should meetup someday. I sense some mixture of HB`s routine and the High Rep Squat thing. I wonder whats gonna come up if I mix them up both. biggrin.gif
