Mun Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Hi all, im not sure which forum to put this under exactly but i thought it might fit in here? anyways just wanted to get your thoughts on my split. Got the exercises from Brooks Kubik's Dinosaur Training book, just not sure which days to put which lifts, will do grip work twice a week during the rest days. Just started dinosaur training this week, newbie here, trying to work the compound lifts mostly. Day 1, Monday Squat, Military Press (alternating with clean and jerk), Bentover row, Farmers Walk, Barbell Curl Day 2 Thursday Deadlift (alternating with Power Cleans), Bench press, Sandbag carry, Calf raises, Ab work Doing 4 sets of 5 reps for all lifts, Farmers walk 1 set to failure. 1st set is light weight and keeps increasing till the 4th set which is my maximum weight. However, I'm pretty spent after my last set but I feel I have more endurance and maybe I should do the last 2 sets for 5 reps each with maximum weight instead of just the final set for max. weight. Recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbcx6pmw Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 That's a great program. I would do 2-3 warm up sets of 5 then 2-3 work sets to start with on the main exercises. Increase the weight if you get all 5 reps on each work set. As you improve you could then drop one of the work sets if necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
