A collection of russian powerlifting/strength routines with xls.

Just thought I'd post them up for people to look at since quite a few of us are interested in them or are in the process of doing them.

Smolov Squat Cycle
Apparently a 13 week soul-destroyer. I think you need to be mental to do this one. I'm trying it next year

Smolov Jr
A great 3 week strength builder for exercises such as deads or bench. I did it and added 15kg to my deads and 10kg to my bench. Its not that scary, honest!

Boris Sheiko Cycles
I'm eager as hell to try these routines. Posted by Tunen originally so ask him about them. Varied cycles for training all 3 lifts.



And here's a T-nation T-Cell Alpha thread with some good discussion regarding Sheiko cycles...


2 Spreadsheets, the first is a 4 week preparatory cycle and the second is a 5 week competition cycle.
