I guess for a beginner it ain't terrible.

Why no deadlifts though?

are you doing the basic vanilla 3-day TM?

try a 4-day upper/lower TM

>>39229866
nah I've modified it quite a bit to try and make better bench and OHP progress. Worked for a while, but now everything but sqwats have stalled big time. gaining about .5lbs a week btw

>>39229845
Just out of curiousity why wouldnt you use this through intermediate phase? And I low-bar squat and hate deadlifts thats why I dont do them. Every couple weeks I'll go with my friend whos into powerlifitng and I do deads with him though, just dont like em.

>>39229910
post your tm then

but im betting its still relatively low volume. id try gzcl jacket and tan 2
>>39229919
you probably wont recover from those three heavy squat sessions in a week and you probs need some variety too

It is also my experience that an upper/lower works better than TM. Heck, even HLM does.

Vanilla TM is too much squat volume, and too little Bench/Press volume.

>>39230065
isnt TM basically HLM? and you can do upper/lower TM, not sure why youre excluding those

and i fail to see how vanilla tm has too much squat volume but i agree otherwise

>>39230077
TM is actually HLH.
The problem is the vanilla version: squat 5x5 on monday, and a 5RM two/three days later. I always overtrained, it is too taxing (even gaining weight and not doing sports).
I saw better gains on HLM: even though I had a balls-to-the-wall 5x5 squat workout, it didn't matter if I didn't fully recover by friday.
It is possible to lower the volume in volume day TM though.

the intensity day is more like medium imo tbqh

>and a 5RM two/three days later
nigga what? its 4 days later.

betting you underrecovered, not overtrained.

I'm doing Greyskull LP now and it's awesome. Maybe it wouldn't work for a true intermediate lifter though.

op here, I was considering something from gzcl.

don't wanna do stuff like slingshot and legs up bench though, or lunges. you got any replacement ideas for those?

>>39230221
replace slingshot with spoto press

dont know about the others. why no legs up? just figure out some random lower body exercise to replace lunges with
