So, does anyone have a link to their preferred 2-2-2 routine?
I commented on what I do that’s not far from the suggested routine. It’s harder, but you can adjust to your needs.
Thank you
Twice a week, four exercises each session (squat, hinge, push, pull), two heavy sets of 6-12 reps for each exercise. Not bad, it makes sense.
It’s not far off from what I (44) do.
Monday: Squat
DB squat, Goblet squat, Bulgarian squat, squat to jump (forget what it’s called)
Wednesday: Chest
Military press, diamond press, bench press, push-ups
Friday: Deadlift
Deadlifts, Romanian deadlift, row, bicep curl
I usually do 3 weeks of only 5x5, and 3 weeks of 5x10-12, repeat. I’m will add cardio in the form of running, HIIT, etc.
That’s a million miles off. Not to be disparaging to the 2-2-2 folk, but they’re running in maintenance mode. You appear to still have the ambition for hypertrophy, like me. The 2-2-2 method is fascinating, hence why I shared it, but it doesn’t build endurance or muscle, so it’s a poor fit for me personally. I’ll stick to my full body workouts 3 days a week. 6 hours a week isn’t a lot to ask when you’re successfully doing body recomposition.
