Hey Murph,

I signed up for a meet in late May. for the last three months I’ve been running a Barbell Medicine “hypertrophy” program focused on the bench, deadlift, squat – lifts at RPE 7/8/9 and increasing volume each week. Since doing this program, my lifts have gone up 20lbs each. Now at Bench 185, Squat 300, Deadlift 285. Also, I’m 47, 5’6″, and 160lbs. I tend to do some kind of a fitness class in the mornings in do barbell work in the evenings at home.

I’ve had the Sheiko app, and now that Im going to be doing this meet, I was thinking of doing the app workouts. So two questions, I know you have several programs on the site, 1. which one can I look at to train for a meet, over the next 8 weeks, and 2. When training for a meet, should the athlete just focus on powerlifting training, or can I continue my twice a day – class in the am and strength in the evenings.

Thanks!
A
