Powerlifting 2
This program is designed to follow Powerlifting 1 as the next cycle of training. It is 9 weeks long, and is designed to help you prepare and peak for a meet. If you are not competing in powerlifting yet, be sure to max out at the end of the program to record your progress! The intensities for the main lifts are all percentages of your 1 rep max. Be sure to use recent maxes so the program will be appropriate difficulty
level for you. If you completed Powerlifting 1, your 1 rep max can be calculated from the 2-4 rep max you lifted at the end of the program. If you don't know your maxes or they aren't recent, consider starting with Powerlifting 1. The intensities for the rest of the exercises are expressed as RPE or Rate of Perceived Exertion. This is a measure of how hard the weight feels to you on that day. For example, let's say you have Pull ups for 3 x 8 @RPE 7. This means you will perform 3 sets of 8 pull ups at a difficulty level of 7/10. For an exercise like the pull up, you can adjust difficulty by using the pull up assistance machine or adding weight with a dip belt to achieve an RPE of 7. If an exercise does not have an RPE or a percentage, pick a weight that
seems reasonable and focus on form!
Be sure to get a few warmup sets before you hit your 'working sets' for the main lifts (bench, squat, and deadlift). Always a good idea to prime the body before lifting heavy!
