Hi Guys. I'm a long-time reader but just recently decided to ask a Q.
I've got a PL meet coming up and will only have 6 weeks to prepare for it. My plan was to re-test my 1RMs then start with the cycle. I based it off of two factors 1)I'm really new to competing, this will be my first IPF meet, so I'm thinking of a linear progression. 2)Using prilepin's table for max strength.
Typically, i was just working on form, so I would do the three big lifts twice a week (with 1-2 assistance exercises), once at 80% (7 x 2) and once at 70% (5 x4). I kept the reps low to focus on set-up.
This is my current plan with the meet being at the end of week 6. Any thoughts, suggestions, tweaks?
