starting tier 1 with a focus on arms, then after two weeks going to tier 2 for a week then a one week cruise. after 3 hard weeks my mind is ready for a easy week

I'm thinking of exercise selections as so....

upper load day

chest- CGBP
shoulders- smith Behind neck press
back- supinated pulldowns
back 2 ( rack deads)

then lower body pump

for MRs I was thinking

hammer strength press (chest) or weighted dips
Machine OHP
triceps will be smith JM press

so i guess all my shoulder pump work will be laterals and rear delt work. tricep pump will be maybe behind the head rope extensions, to hit the long head some. Something brutal...maybe like 1.5s or 21s

any other fun tips?

Do you have the FT e-book? You seem to be missing out on a good bit of the basics of exercise selection for the different Set Types (page 90 or so).

For instance, there are three rotations for the Loading Sets (call them A, B and C) and you chose a compound and an isolation exercise each for chest and delts (e.g., a press and a fly movement for chest), and a width and thickness exercise for back (e.g., a pulldown and a row).

I could go on, but there's no reason to if you've got the book, where it's all laid out in detail.

Chest I was thinking, CGBP, Dips, slight incline smith bench
Shoulders: Smith OHP, neutral grip OHP, and we have this power squat contraption that I crawl into and you can use the shoulder pads to do an close handwidth OHP


MRs I’ve mostly used machines and DBs or the Smith. Racking and re racking is a pain in the but with MRs

If so, I'd read this first (first post): FT Most Frequently Questions asked here on the Forum

I’ve gone through like 4 sheets of scratch paper tinkering with it lol. I’m a touch of an over thinker so that’s why I did so well with DC. Do 1-2 soul crushing sets per body part, then go eat and pass out lol

But I’m in my 30s. College football, mma, lifting....my joints and lower back are letting me know I’m not 21 anymore lol.
