So I re-joined the gym as soon as I had my second dose in August and I have been on the Stronglifts app four days a week until now. I have reached a plateau and I don't see myself advancing much more between now and Xmas.
So I am thinking I could shift over to Juggernaut which I have used before. I like the variation with Juggernaut – how you do both high reps/hypertrophy at one end and low reps/strength at the other end. But there is a big difference in terms of SL making you squat every session, but Juggernaut requiring squats only once a week.
I've had no issues recuperating from the (near) daily squats so I could maybe tweak the Juggernaut program to include the 5 x 5 squat with every session? As a kind of warm up exercise? But then again, that will just keep me at the plateau I am at now.
Your thoughts please.
