Plan Details
The Texas Method routine by cipherzero is a 6 day workout plan. It is an intermediate level plan to achieve bulking fitness goals.
Template for the Texas Method program, baby's first program after running out linear gains on Starting Strength or Stronglifts. This is a two-week rotation of exercises; that's why it looks so odd compared to other three-day-a-week programs. Rest periods are merely recommendations, adjust to your body's requirements. ------ Based off the spreadsheet found here (and is required reading for how it works): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AnnDjspTjVUAdGdpeWNQanYyZGRtdW5YLTR2Z1ItQmc
