Plan Details
The week 5/6 routine by Tomyossowski is a 7 day workout plan. It is an intermediate level plan to achieve general fitness goals.
This is a powerlifting routine for those who are competing/training for a powerlifting competition or for those who are looking to increase their strength. Powerlifting is based upon straight power of an individual and this routine is purely for strength gains. With this routine you will be training in a 4 day split with the 1st day on, 2nd day rest, 3rd day on, 4th day rest, 5th and 6th days on and then 7th day rest. While performing this workout you will start with a weight that you are able to manage on your first set for 8 to 10 reps and as you increase the amount of sets that you will perform, you will be increasing the weight until you are able to perform 4-6 reps per the last 2 sets.
