I ran Strong with 2x24kg C&P this spring and loved it. I worked up a 4-5RM to 8RM with it. What I liked about the program:
Has anyone run Strong this way (or similar)?
- Logical and systematic volume progression
- Rest periods "by feel" and only 5-10 sets makes for a time-efficient program
- One big compound movement - C&P/PP is pull and push, C&J has a bit of a squat in it too
- Day A: C&J
- Day B1: Front Squat
- Day B2: Chin-ups (ladder, stopping 1-2 rungs before rep max)
- Mon: C&J 10x1
- Wed: FSQ 10x1 w/ chin ladders
- Fri: C&J: 5x2
- Mon: FSQ 5x2 w/ chin ladders (or not, on these heavier days)
- Wed: C&J: 10x1
- Fri: FSQ 10x1 w/ chin ladders
