He dropped his coach for lack of time and now he’s failing reps constantly. Sound familiar? In this video Starting Strength Coach Grant Broggi lays out exactly what to do when you’ve already built a base of strength but life won’t let you train like a competitor: the minimum weekly reps for squat, deadlift, and the presses, how to split them across the week, and the one question to ask after every session to know if you’re doing enough. He also explains who this does NOT apply to — and why that person needs to block out six months and run the program.
