Sample Famine Phase Workout Template
Oliverparsons, bless you for your question.
I know it's confusing. A blessing and a curse. I didn't design it this way, but even for the people who bought it they find it difficult to reverse-engineer/execute. Good for me if you're a pirate, bad for me if you're a paying customer.
I'll clarify it anyway: 1 set of A, 1 set of B, 1 set of C, 1 set of D. Proceed to triceps

1 superset of legs/back, total of 3 times. To clarify:
Squats with a weight that finds you able to perform 4-6 reps immediately into - Seated cable rows for 4-6 rep range
Rest for 2 min and repeat two more times.
On the arms for workout #3, 5 sets of 5 different exercises (ideally). If you can't swing 5, some duplication is OK. I'll give the template a second look on point #1.

I believe this has been covered extensively. Page 27 of the Blueprint 2.0, point #3 is actually on this topic. The recommendation in the book is more specific (But I don't like to put parts of the book on the internet) but basically, it's highly recommended. Check the book for specifics.xxtotuxx wrote:Rob, how about doing cardio (HIIT or LISS) during Famine?

Hey Rob, figured I might as well post this on the sticky instead of starting a new thread. You've mentioned that we could possibly get away with a 4 day famine instead of 5 days. Just wondering how that changes the workouts...do we now need to compress all 3 famine workouts into 4 days? Or do we just drop the last workout on day 5 (so we'd only be working out days 1 and 3)? Thanks!
No need to compress anything. Simply skip workout #3, and finish out the 5 day famine phase with the diet.oliverparsons wrote:Hey Rob, figured I might as well post this on the sticky instead of starting a new thread.

Still confused. :(
Hi Rob, and all. I am getting ready to start my first run of BP and after reading through all the material, I thought I had a good handle on the workouts for Famine, however, after reading through the posts here, I am confused again. I apologize for asking you to answer the same questions over again, but can you please clarify:
On Monday, I will do Squats/Cable Rows as a superset, rest 2 minutes and then do it again 2 more times.
Then I will do one set of each of the 3 bicep exercises?
On Wednesday, I will do one set of each of the 4 Chest/Shoulder supersets? And then do one set of each of the 4 Tricep excercises?
Is that right?
Thanks in advance!
