Plan Details
The BigElk Bulk and strength training routine by drelky is a 6 day workout plan. It is an advanced level plan to achieve cutting fitness goals.
I used this to make great strength gains and made decent Gains. There is a lot of super setting but that's my style. I used 4 different rep schemes something like 12,10,8 then pyramid up from 12 10 8 in one set. I also used a lot drop sets/extended sets.
