Layne Norton's Workout Routine - Power and Hypertrophy

[kman025]

If my main goal was size, this what I'd do.

I did this program a while ago, it was pretty good. But the hypertrophy workouts were way too long and too much isolation work for me. Just not my style, but it is a nice balanced program. I believe my first post ever on a forum was me throwing this up at ipyu.com and it basically got torn apart. I still did it with some pretty good success.

This was also my start into becoming a powerlifter.

I find it hard to hit certain muscle groups twice a week. I know a lot of guys try to copy this routine, but I think I would do a heavy hypertrophy-slanted Westside before this. I also don't care for cramming al hypertrophy work into 3 days.

Anyway, it's a good program to analyze, but not the best for most lifters. if someone's going to go for size and strength as an intermediate, I would rather see them alternate heavy and hypertrophy weeks.
