Question Would like an answer to a question please


Hi, I am Jeff and I am new to the forum. I dont know if i am posting this in the correct spot, but hopefully someone will have an answer for me.

I recently read an article that talked about Brian Urlacher's Offseason workout. Any way, there was a question I had about something in the workout.

He says,

DAY 1
Chest, Back and Biceps*
Bench Press (superset)
4 X Max-Max+2-Max+2-Max+2
Seated Row 4 X 8-8-8-8
Incline Press (superset)
4 X 8-8-8-8
One-Arm Row 4 X 8-8-8-8
Dips (superset)
3 X AMCD
Lat Pulldown 3 X 12-12-12
Straight Bar Curl (superset)
5 X 10-8-6-6-6
Seated DB Curls 3 X 8-8-8
Crunches (superset)
3 X 30-30-30
Knee-Ups 3 X 30-30-30

My question was in regards to the

Bench Press (superset)
4 X Max-Max+2-Max+2-Max+2

I don't quite know what that means to do.

Any answers or help would be appreciated

Jeff

Default Re: Would like an answer to a question please

I can't say for sure, but I think it has to do with the number of reps and the weight. You take your maximum lift ability (for example, if the most you can bench is 200 then you put on 200) and lift it four times. Rest a few seconds then lift it against twice. Rest. Lift twice. Rest. Lift twice.

That's my best guess, but I'm not 100% sure.
