5/3/1 is progressing me well, have no complaints on the strength front. Pulled 150 for 9 reps yesterday and benched 80 for 6 recently, reps I've never seen before with those weights. I'm slightly on the fat side (strong fat), but what concerns me most is my conditioning at the moment.
Play rugby as I have mentioned a lot before, and looking to get back to training thai 2x a week in the not too distant future. I'm just looking to improve both aerobic and anaerobic capacities, but I'm having trouble trying to program it so as I'm not burning myself out for lifting.
Current schedule is as follows:
Monday:
Squat and bench 5/3/1 followed by treadmill pushes and bag work
Wednesday:
Press 5/3/1 with assistance followed by treadmill pushes and bag work
Thursday:
Deadlift 5/3/1 with assistance followed by bag work
Question is when should I include LISS? 2x a week on top of that? I was thinking maybe 2 45 minute jogs at 60% HR on Tuesday and Sunday - This would be fine??
Or should I ditch the treadmill pushes and include LISS whilst I'm in the gym?
Sorry if you feel I'm moaning, I don't often do conditioning work and have recently realized its about time I do but I suck at programming my stuff around my college and work life etc.
Appreciate any help
