I go alot by feal these days. and im a PL not SM. Ive got a training log here too ive been keeping up to date for quite a while.
but right now
6 day split
sun - ME squat
5 or 3 or 1 rm in squat
accessory work
mon - Back
Rows + biceps
tue - DE/RE bench
10-15sets of bench (speed)
work up to near max single
accessory work
wednesday - Deadlift day
Work up to heavy single (increase each week)
add 3 inch platform and get some volume in (sets of 3)
shrugs / more hamstring work
thursday - Squat accessory
Squat variations, as much as 20sets.
raw squats, oly squats, box squats, speed squats etc. go by feel.
fri - off
Sat - ME bench
Max out some sort of bench variation (floor press, reverse band, etc)
accessory work
The reason why most people cant follow this is
- I hit a near max deadlift every week
- I hit a max bench every week, as well as a near max bench on another day
- I squat heavy as possible 2x per week.
I like going heavy, so this works for me. I hate doing much volume (although, it does work for me as well). And I generally stick to things I know will work to bring up my lifts 100% of the time.
for SM training, you need a base of strength in all the lifts. Something like the starting strength template would even be alright (Squatting 3x per week) then add a day for event based work if possible I think.
If I was a strongman (I plan on competing one day).. I would train very similar except almost all bench work would be overhead work. I would practice all the variations of overhead work.. but the push jerk may be the one to focus on I think.
I would also change my max effort squat day to an events day, and I would do more rack pulls and deadlifts for reps on my deadlift day.
hope this helps.
