FAQS
1. Can I combine this program with other programs of yours?
A: Yes. This program can be run concurrently with any of my programs. I would recommend being very cautious
when combing the Back and Arm Hypertrophy Programs however as the biceps may become overtaxed. If
combining these programs, be sure to reduce the bicep work in the Arm Hypertrophy Program by 50% initially
and carefully assess your own recovery moving forward.
2. What does LSTF mean in the program?
A: This is a programming tool used to indicate whether or not the last set of a given exercise should be taken
to failure. In the program, this will be annotated as either a Y (meaning yes, take the last set to failure) or an N
(meaning no, do not take the last set to failure). Failure in this case means you couldn’t get another rep through a
full ROM.
3. What about my neck and traps?
A: This program can be easily combined with my Neck and Trap Training Guide. There are crossover exercises
on Day 1 (Rack Pulls) and Day 2 (Upright Rows) which makes integrating the two programs together very simple.
Granted, if you don’t have the
Neck and Trap Guide,
you can optionally add in the high volume Power Shrugs on
Day 2. This will provide a very sizable stimulus for upper trap growth in addition to the Rack Pulls on Day 1 and
all the other rowing in the program. If you want additional strategies for training the neck, you can watch my
Neck and Trap Science Explained video.
4. What if I can’t do rack pulls?
A: Do barbell power shrugs instead for the same sets/reps, but rack pulls are preferred as they will target the
spinal erectors and stabilizers to a greater degree.
5. Can Back Day 1 and 2 be combined with extra bicep isolation work to make a complete “Pull Day”?
A: Yes. If you’re running a push pull legs split, you can add bicep isolation work at the end of Day 1 and 2,
however keep in mind that all of the pulling in this program does target the biceps to an appreciable degree. You
may want to adjust your usual bicep volume down initially by 25-50% if you are not accustomed to this volume of
pulling in your training.
