    Default Optimal way to program presses when training two days a week

    • starting strength seminar jume 2024
    • starting strength seminar august 2024
    • starting strength seminar october 2024
    I'm currently doing the following:

    Mon Squat 3x5 Bench 3x5 Chins
    Thu Press 3x5 DL 1x5 Chins

    But fairly quickly ran into stalls in both presses, is there any better way to program them? A back off set or two for volume after main sets?

    I don't have much more time to train so doing them both twice a week is probably out of the question unless I did one set.

    Squat/DL are going fine, so far...

    Thanks for any help!

    Bench and press both days, alternate volume and intensity.
