My All Pro's

A little explanation of All Pro's.  All Pro's goes in cycles, where 1 cycle is 5 weeks.  First week, you start off with 8 reps and each week you increase the reps by 1 until the total gets to 12.  It is a 3 day a week program and goes like this, day 1 you use your 10rm, day 2 is 10% less and day 3 is 20% (of the 10rm).  2 working sets for each exercises and 2 warm-up for the first 3 exercises, total sets 20.  Week 5 Day 1 is Test Day where if you hit the 12 reps you move up in weight by 10% for the next cycle for that exercise.  If not, you repeat the weight.

Here are my weights for each day.  A slight difference than what I posted previously.

Day 1
Squats 170
Bench 120
Rows 100
Overhead Press 80
Stiff-legged deadlift 115
Barbelll curl 60
Calf Raises 130

Day 2
Squats 150
Bench 110
Rows 90
Overhead Press 70
Stiff-legged deadlift 100
Barbelll curl 55
Calf Raises 115


Day 3
Squats 135
Bench 100
Rows 80
Overhead Press 65
Stiff-legged deadlift 90
Barbelll curl 50
Calf Raises 105

 What I like about it.  Full body work-out.  Built in deload each week.  Quick and simple, always finish within an hour.  No DOMS for the most part.

What I don't like.  This program is really BORING except for Day 1 of the week because that is challenging.  Just doesn't really feel like you're hitting the muscles because each exercise has  only has 2 working sets.
