Having lots of difficulty with my bench and OHP. I think my form is good. I just can't seem to increase upper body lifts fast.
Is this a good work out or nah?

i like but why not change up bench on deadlift day to ohp? and maybe some different accessories on the dl day like reverse curls, shrugs etc
its not bad just a suggestion so u dont get bored bb
>>36634162
>no mention of progression just an endless list of accessories with a token compound thrown in
No it's not.

why the ref. to nuckols? does he advocated high rep sets?
prsonally i like to do a few sets of 3-5 maybe ramping, then some backoffs of 6-8
>>36634313
i guess if he started off with 8 reps then worked with the same wight until 12 reps then added a few pounds?
