For several months I was using a 5x5 routine focused on deadlifts and bench presses. Then I moved, had my work schedule turned upside down, and started training in brazillian JiuJitsu 2x/week so I havent really been lifting since August.
I've found a new gym and time in my week to lift twice a week. I have lost about 20 lbs of wat looks in the mirror like mostly fat loss but I'm sure I have lost quite a bit of strength as well.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a routine to get me back to my former strength levels on a 2x/week frequency?
I'm guessing I will be able to progress faster to these former strength levels than i could the first time. What would anyone suggest? i thought maybe 3x5 sets at a constant weight, adding 5-10 lbs every workout would be good.
But I'd like to hear if anyone has had success with any particular routine in such a scenario, training to failure, high volume, very low volume, etc?
