Hello,
My name is David and I'm 49, 6'3" and weigh 198lbs. I'm currently barbell training based on the Pavel article mentioning Faleev's strategy. I would consider myself a novice.
M-F, one lift per day.
Monday - heavy lower back squat, 5x5
Tuesday - heavy BP, 5x5
Wednesday - heavy DL, 5x5
Thursday - light lower back squat(80% of heavy day) 5x4
Friday - light BP(80% of heavy day) 5x4
I also enjoy the overhead press. Is there a way to incorporate it with a program like this and if yes, what would be the best way? I was thinking one week, I would do the BP and the next week I would do the overhead press. I just don't know if switching it out every other week would work and limit my gains in BP and overhead press. My thought process is that the 2 lifts would compliment each other so it might work...but I'm a novice so that's why I'm asking for help.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
