CONCEPTUAL PROGRAM INTRODUCTION

The next program obtained from Idaho Weightlifting Federation which I underwent was called the "Conceptual Program".  This particular program is a hybrid routine developed by Coach Mike Burgener and Coach Steve Gough and their interpretation of the "Bulgarian Method".  In all honesty and candor, I chose this program because it looked freaking bad-ass on paper.  During the course of the past two programs, there weren't any hang, power, or stage movements, and the thought of doing these seemed novel, fun, and exciting.  Not very scientific, but as you'll see, it worked out in the end with an increase in strength and confidence under the barbell.

The four week program calls for four workouts per week, which agreed with my schedule -- something I found appealing about the program as a SAHD.  I utilized the automated spreadsheet to populate my projected workout weights over the next four weeks.  The following PRs were entered:

110kg - Snatch
130kg - Clean and Jerk
170kg - Back Squat
