    Hey all,  I am working on setting up an online training business.  I use CBL/CNS as my nutrition protocols, with some variance depending on the individual.  For training,  unless they are working towards a specific competitive goal,  I use a pretty basic 4 week wave template based on 5/3/1, except I move the 3's week and 5's week around, so its 3/5/1, similar to what Wendler talked about in the 5/3/1 for Powerlifting Ebook.  On the 5's week I don't have them rep out the last set.  It's meant as a deload or as I prefer reload(term from former mentor S/C coach).  The assistance work stays the same through the wave, I just add volume or intensity every week, then switch the movements the next wave.  After 2-3 waves I will change the main movements to something similar, back squat to front squat, conventional deadlift to sumo deadlift, bench to floor press, OH press to incline bench, for at least 1 or 2 waves,  then come back to the original lifts.  I give them a main movement every day in the 5/3/1 rep/intensity range, then two main accessory movements, then 3 accessory movements done in a circuit style,  this is how I get in the minor accessory stuff, like biceps, upper back, extra tricep volume.  Torso work is included as a circuit in the warm ups.  Any critiques or discussion would be appreciated.  Otherwise,  hopefully this template might help some others with ideas for training.Example:Day 1Squat 3's weekGood Mornings 4-5 sets of 5-8Lunges 3-4 sets of 8-10Circuit:Pull Throughs, Stability Ball Leg Curls, BW Step Ups 3x15-20Day 2 Bench 3's weekBB Rows 4-5 sets of 6-10DB Shoulder Press 3-4 sets of 8 Circuit:Tri Extensions, Bi Curls, Face Pulls 3 sets of 15-20Day 3Deadlift 3's weekSplit Squats 4-5 sets of 6-10RDL's 3-4 sets of 5-8Circuit:Leg Extensions, Leg Curls, Calf Raises 3 rounds of 15-20Day 4OH Press 3's weekPull Ups or Inverted Rows 4-5 sets to failureDB Floor Press 3-4 sets of 5-8Circuit:Triceps, Biceps, Upper Back 3 rounds of 15-20

    It sounds like a straight-forward, well thought out approach.  Don't see why, depending on current level of training, it wouldn't work as a jumping off point for most lifters.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it really doesn't take much to translocate TGLUT. I think a lot of people including myself stress to much on whether we are or not. I know I can't work legs hard at all except maybe some extensions and curls due to injury. That means I can't Dead lift or squat or really anything that is to extremely heavy and involves to much core. However I do think that if I stick to things I can do and work that muscle group to failure or just before failure with a good amount of weight and volume then I'm probably translocating. I remember Kiefer saying that it's a way diabetics can stop such extreme insulin sensitivity(or however he stated it) but the diabetics I know couldn't kill themselves in the gym due to poor health and without extremely heavy lifts and they seem to be translocating. He also said in one of his podcast that it is possible to translocate the hormones in one working set.  I may be completely wrong with this post. And I know I'm a newbie to this site, but I have spent a shit ton of time researching and asking questions as some of you may know LOL. Hopefully someone will agree with me on this! Thanks!

    Kiefer said you get the best results with tGLUT translocation when one set is taken to failure on upper body movements and three sets are taken to failure on lower body movements.tGLUT isn't the only thing that is of concern though, you have to make sure you are depleting glycogen too or else those carbs have nowhere to go except for your fat cells.

    So could one translocate strictly off extensions and curls? It never specified what moves or lifts?

    I saw the 5/3/1 workout and i cant stop wondering if i can do it!I suffer of back injury (hernia in L5-S1) and because of that i cant do heavy weights squats or deadlifts, I can still do them but as part of the last exercise and with low weight or else mt hip and leg starts to burn and hurt like hell,By what i saw, is there any way of doing this plan with 1 Leg Squats for example? (1 Leg Split Squat, Squater squats)My current workout is based on 4 Sets of 4-6 exercices per muscle group on the inverted pyramid of 6-10 reps for shoulders and arms, 12-16 reps for Legs and 8-12 for the rest,Am i doing too much reps or that doesnt really matter?I finish each workout with 1-2 failure sets.

This week is a lighter squat volume and little bit lower intensity and volume on the lifts.

    What is the reason I don't see many people train like shockwave? I start with every muscle group now with 2 times 5×3 (increasing quick after eachother like Kiefer shows in his vids), followed by 2×8, so mostly 3 things for every muscle group. Is this not optimal or muscle building? I am a bit surprised right now so that is why I ask.

    Reseructing this cuz it seems like the place this should go. I've always had a problem with the concept of less is more.
