It follows the RoP template but I'm not necessarily going for Easy, Medium and Hard - I'll listen to feedback from body on each day and wrap it up before failure. I'll throw in a killer session each week, maybe even a LCCJ test here and there, and take it easy when I feel I need it.

Swings could be pyramids, top of the minute sets, timed sets, H2H drills even. I like the flexibility this provides.

The grip program is from Brian Copeland's ebook Seriously Strong Hands - recommended reading.

A great template for success. The variety will keep you:

1) sane
2) lots of chances for multiple PRs

Also, I like your new emphasis on grip strength. I'm looking forward to following your journey with Brian's e-book.
