BP LIGHT WORKOUT #7
6-8/2-3 with a good cushion between you and failure. Skip the assistance. Take this workout 4-
7 days before the meet, depending on your recovery rate.
WHY YOU SHOULD DO IT
The WPC Team Russia coach sums up why his system is so effective.
"There are no mandatory RM percentages that must be fulfilled. On the heavy workouts you
lift the weights you are capable of on the given day based on how you feel. Thanks to alternating
light and heavy workouts, the joints and connective tissues are not excessively overloaded.
Chronic injuries typical for the athletes working the same exercises several times a week go away,
heal. Long rest periods between workouts and the distribution of load let the body recover and,
most importantly, increase the strength potential."
If you have been tempted by the Westside siren song of variety but just can't call yourself a man
without facing 5RM sets in the competition lifts, the WPC Russia method might be for you.
"Accumulate strength, collect confidence, bring up the weak... spots—and your records will
come!" promises Konstantin Rogozhnikov, Distinguished Coach of Russia.

Russian coach Lev Shprints tells an amusing story about a group of young Russian lifters who
were fortunate enough to meet and pick the brains of two iron legends in one day.
"You are weightlifters," said weightlifting Olympic champion Leonid Zhabotinsky. "That's
good. But it is wrong to limit yourself to the barbell; you ought to take up track and field, play
soccer, volleyball."
