Back up 2 workouts when you get back in the gym. Repeat those 2 and do the 3rd like you would have had you not taken the layoff.
Hello I am a farmer going into harvest season. It will be approximately 3 weeks long. I will not have time to do the program during this time. Looking for some stop gap measures during this time to try to not lose the progress I have made.
I have been doing the program consistently for a little over 2 months:
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 243
Waist: 41”
Program: NLP
Squat:135> 325 lbs
Press: 70>145lbs
Bench: 155> 205 lbs
Deadlift: 175>375 lbs
**my deadlift stalled for a short period because I got greedy and set back back on track now**
I have not been doing power cleans, mostly because I have never done them before and I do not have someone locally to coach me on the proper technique. I don’t want to be caught doing upright rows.
Currently not doing chins as I cannot do one. Instead I am doing 3x5 dips and 80lbx3x5 lat pulls.
I also will row at about 100 watts a couple times a week, mostly because I enjoy it.
Nutrition:
150-200 grams of protein per day depending on farm schedule. Hard to go get extra food in the middle of a field while on a tractor. Working to up it to 250g/day.
About 3500-4000 calories per day. Though I have been eating less since I have not been training as consistently this last week while getting ready for harvest.
Sleep:
7-8 generally. Though the last two weeks I have had some issues with sleeping, not unusual for me at this time of year.
I will be starting the program again as soon as the last bushel is out of the field.
Thank you for your time,
Kevin

Thanks Ripp.
That's a possibility. Also, you're very old.
