General Mass - Which Template while shift work

[TopGun]

Hi Guys,

I am using TB since 2016.
Now for the first time, i would like to run Mass Protocol.

But i have some troubles with finding the right Template for GM because of my working shedule as a LEO.

Its the following:

Day 1: 12-6 pm
Day 2: 6-12 am AND Night Shift 6 pm to 6 am
Day 3: Off
Day 4: Off

Then it starts again with Day 1 and so on…

At the Day 1s i could do some conditioning. The Day 2 i have only 6 hours to eat and sleep before starting again. During the two days at work i am not able to use a gym.

I know that Fighter HT and Gladiator would be an option, but my question is, if you guys see a possibility to use one of the others?
I really would like to use MT or Grey Man and wondering, if there is a possibility to do so, without pushing the rules of the program too hard

Thanks in advance!

TopGun, I've run all except Fighter HT. If it were me, I'd run Gladiator, but because of the 2 on 2 off, which will actually make it a bit better for recovery, I'd add pullups. So maybe Day A would be MP, SQ, WPU, Day B would be BP, DL, the E. That leaves work days free. Blocks are only 3 weeks long, a little longer in your case - suggest you give this a try for a block.

Just want to give my 2c.. I have been following custom 9 days training week for long time for both BB and OP I/A. I am doing the same currently for Fighter HT and will be applying it for Grey Man starting next week. It is set up like:

Day 1 - Lifting AM (optional conditioning PM)
Day 2 - conditioning or off
Day 3 - conditioning or off
Repeat

It works very well for me giving my complex personal family/work situation and my age (51 yo).

I hope it can give you some ideas..

Thank you for the great answers!
I immediately started to work out Fighter HT with an extended week and so i forgot to answer…sry!

What was the reason for KB not to write an I/A version for the Mass Protocol?

How you doing with the 9 day version of grey man Barkadion?

Oh.. that’s easy..

Day1 AM - Lifting
Day 1 PM - E
Day2-3 - off
Repeat

OR

Day1 - Lifting
Day2 - E
Day3 - off
Repeat

Good luck!
