Hi Jaunty, it's pretty simple, and one of his original templates.How does the Boring But Big work? Wendler has so much stuff now I can't keep up with it.
Hi Jaunty, it's pretty simple, and one of his original templates.
Basically, do 5/3/1 and then 5 sets of 10 reps with 50% of your training max. There are variations (as always) where the % increases on the 5 x 10 sets, but I'm a simple man so am sticking with the original.
Yeah, I'm not ready for that yet, the shoulder injury really set me back quite a bit, so am keeping everything super light, and trying to build some volume.Ah, yes, I remember the original one. For some reason I thought you were doing one of the fancy new ones. I have seen one where you increase the % over quite a few weeks.
Ah, I think this was it:

Done over three months, 50% first month, 60% second month, 70% last month. Which sounds unpleasant.
