Just wanted to share with TEAM PRRS a method I have been experimenting with that has led to great results for those that I have tested it on.
I call it PRRS Burst Cycling and it is simply a modified method of the basic format. Here is what it looks like:
P/P/P/RR/RR/RR/S/S/S/P/P/RR/RR/S/S/P/RR/S
Now the idea here is to focus on one hypertrophy "pathway" a bit more than usual. What this can allow for is stength adaptions to take place within each of the weekly protocols (P-RR-S) more efficiently. Down the road, more reps with the same weight or the same reps with more weight will lead to better gains.
Thus, the idea here is to choose a set of the most effective exercises for you (and/or ones that focus on weak points, such as upper chest, brachialis, mid-back, etc) and to stick with them for this entire Burst phase. The goal is to move more weight at each corresponding P-RR-S session so by the final 3-weeks you are far ahead of where you started.
This is just another way to use the principles behind PRRS.

This looks very interesting. I am thinking I just may give it a shot and log my journey through Burst Cycling.

So this is something that you would have to dedicate 4 solid months to complete... without altering right?
Sounds like something to try out after my next cycle thru ;D

I'd like to try this myself. One question that Magician brings up...how do you structure your off-week? Or do you bother?

More optimal during caloric surplus or OK for deficit periods?

More optimal during caloric surplus or OK for deficit periods? Will work for either as a hypertrophy program or muscle maintenance program! |

I LLLLLLL/OOOOOOO/VVVVV/EE the sound of that new program. I have to say there are times after a P or R I want to go another week into it since it seems the week goes by soo fast. Looking forward to trying it out and seeing more to come

I'm finishing up a couple weeks mini-cut then back to putting on the winter feedbag. I'm just finishing week 1 power so I may give this a gow... though I may also try the P/rr/rr/p/rr/ss/ss etc mode.

I love this concept Eric! ? What cardio [if any] would you prescribe during this? |
