HI Aelian, thanks for that link. I had read that a while back, but forgot about it. Unfortunately the way my public gym is set out it wont be easy to carry this out (treadmills upstairs, weights downstairs). I could possibly try it with Kettlebell Shoulder Press though. I'll keep this in my back pocket and try it at some point as well.Aelian wrote:Welcome to the forum! In addition to Mikhou's plan, here's another option that'll allow you to bench and OH press every week:Hillside HoneyBadger wrote:Hi Mikhou, I'm new to the forum, although I've been lurking for a while. I'm also on the EO3 forums, and I thought I recognised the username. I'm currently using OMOB with SQ, BP, DL, OHP but I'll soon be starting Operator so that I can get more conditioning in my plan. I'm begrudgingly thinking of dropping OHP, and you're "rule" no. 5 that you set out in the beginning of your log about switching between BP & OHP has intrigued me - how did that work out for you? Would you recommend it, or did you find that your progress with OHP went too far backwards when you concentrated on BP and vice versa?
Any feedback welcome.
I've copied your rule below for reference :
5. My plan (and tell me if this doesn't make sense) is to do forced progression until I can't hit my reps anymore. Then I'll switch BP for OHP, start OHP at a 90%TM and do the same (force progression until I can't progress anymore). Then I'll switch back to BP. When I can't hit WCU reps, I'll switch to either bodyweight work or weighted pull-ups, progress awhile, and then switch back. I'll keep SQ and DL in the cluster and just reset them as needed

Option #1 in particular.
