I don't know and I wish they would have been much more of a constant in NROL4W.

C1 1 leg squat -- need the unilateral work


Why do you 'need' the unilateral work, I wonder? I've read conflicting things about doing it - that it can be great for developing your legs if you're trying to 'spot train' them ... or that doing unilateral is less effective at developing muscle than non-unilateral (bilateral?) work. So... I was just curious why you said you needed it.

I think you should consider keeping some sort of row in the workout. It's going to help you a lot when you get to stage 6.

This is what I would have done with workout B:
A: deadlift/barbell row
B1: back squats
B2: push up
C1: wide-grip pulldown
C2: good mornings
D1: bench press
D2: reverse lunges or step-up

Then again, I'm far from an expert.
