You start out doing like 12 singles at around 70% and slowly work your way up to a new max for 1 over 11 weeks. Right now I'm in the last 3 weeks of the cycle and 470 is around 92.5%. You also manipulate your rest time between singles.<br /><br />Also in the first 8 weeks I pull twice a week, with the second session being pretty light.<br /><br />It's a simple program and it's worked just as well for my pull as anything else I've tried. Which is to say, not very well at all :)<br /><br />I do leg raises and hanging leg raises when I feel like it. Leg raises are the ones done on a machine like this:<br /><br />http://www.lifefitness.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/CS-SigBenchRack_SLR-hero.png<br /><br />Hanging leg raises are the ones where you hang from the strap thingies.<br /><br />I don't think either version is particularly necessary or useful. I basically do them to decompress my spine a bit after squats and pulls.Fatmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18077817670776459628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3775547849492453021.post-28693890573856135452015-09-15T15:31:30.779-07:002015-09-15T15:31:30.779-07:00Am I nuts or did you recently up the weight on you...Am I nuts or did you recently up the weight on your mid-shin pulls by a lot?<br /><br />Also, do you firmly believe in doing hanging leg raises? Should I consider adding these onto a program?MichiganMethodhttp://michiganmethod.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
