Yesterday was the start of week 5 on this program. So it's week 1 all over again, but up the weight.
It was determined by myself and my son (workout partner) that we HATE high reps.
As a recap of the program layout:
Week 1, 5, 9 = 12-15 reps
Week 2, 6, 10 = 9-11 reps
Week 3, 7, 11 = 6-8 reps
Week 4, 8, 12 = 3-5 reps
