Change to the MLP plan

Btw MLP stands for Modified Linear Perodisation, I just wanted to save time and energy by typing instead of Modified Linear Perodisation I would write MLP, you see Modified Linear Perodisation is longer than MLP, so in future I will type MLP instead of Modified Linear Perodisation, or I wont.......


Ha bet you feel like a fuckwit for reading that,.....I certainly did typing it........anyway......

On with the spiel......

I have decided to alter the linear method I wrote about, even though I'm sure it would work.
And using what information I have found written by Ben Seath about peaking, excerpt below:
"
8--90% 3's Week Then after max rep set Hit 3 singles at actual 90% 
7--85% 5's Week no Singles
6--95% 1's Week after Max rep set hit 3 singles at 95%
5--De-Load
4-- Now Hit Max Single But make sure you don't miss it know your body
3-- Now I take 92% of what my max was and hit it for 2 sets of 3 Reps Example I hit 725 now I am going to go for 660 2 X 3
2--Now go in and try and Double your old max
1-- Hit an Opener a weight that u can hit for an easy 3-4 Rep
0--MEET DAY! 
"
Therefore I will do:
Week 1:  Done 531 style, 90% of training max
Week 2 : Done last week, mod heavy week.

Week 3: 531 Week, Max out on all lifts, do 531 as programmed but no rep max, work up to heavy single, then drop down and go for a rep max.
Aim:
Sq = 220, bp = 150, Press = 95, dead = 270

Week 4: Deload - Unsure whether to do a strict 60% deload or to go a bit heavier and but keeping reps low, possibly speed work? Or as Ben Seath says, go for ~92% of old max for two triples.
So this would be:
Squat = 190kg x 2x3  || Bench = 130 2x3  || Press = 82.5 2x3 || Dead = 240-245 2x3

Week 5: Take max done on week 4 and try to double it, no rep max, but use the programmed weights as warm ups

Week 6: Take openers, prob Sq (200), Bp (130-135), DL (250), Press do rep max?

Week 7: Meet, Keyahhhhhhhh

Goals for meet, will update after week 4:
Squat : 220-230kg
Bench: 150-155kg
Dead:  280kg
and if I have energy left, I will go and maxout on the press after the comp aiming for 100kg
