Based loosely on Jim Wendler's 5/3/1. For each session, do some warmup sets then the three working sets of the big compound exercise at the prescribed percentages of your 1RM. 1..99 reps means do as many reps as possible on your last working set. The second and subsequent exercises in each session are suggested assistance work which can be varried to keep your interest but don't overdo them! The routine covers three weeks, after which you should do a deload week using 50 - 65% of your 1RM for three working sets of 5 reps. Following deload week, increment your working 1RMs by 2.5 to 5kg and start the routine again. Repeat as many times as allow you to make progress on your strength.
