I’m also having the same issues with the app. Just cannot go into the workout section no matter how many times I click “ok” when the error pops up. That section was also a little “buggy” but otherwise love the app and your work!

@Paul. Thanks for sharing that with me, buddy! This is a typical experience of those who go from a low rep, heavy weight plan (like 5×5) to THT. Keep up the good work!

I think this is because I’ve always tended to lift fairly heavy weights (for me) and in doing so bring into play a range of muscles, especially neck and shoulders almost regardless of the exercise. I’m following the THT program and over the last few months have focused solely on the intended muscle, such as bicep, traps and calves. I do these very slowly (about a count of 5 co9ntract, same extend) for both negative and positive movements using a weight that allows me to focus on a specific muscle, and using that muscle only to move the weight.Using this approach I find I have grown in size and have lost body fat, especially around my waist. Best of all, I find that I am avoiding putting strain on areas, such as my neck, and thus I’m avoiding injury. So, many thanks for all your advice. Paul

@Matt. I always err on the side of caution here. Take a break and work your legs on Friday. Allow the extra time for full recovery and growth.

Started a new 3 day THT and MANS cycle on Monday after taking a week off after doing six weeks of TSPA (with great results). Problem is my quads are still super sore today (Wednesday) two days after working out on Monday. Is it OK to do more legs in my full body workout today, or have I not reached POP?

Btw as I am luckily chosen as the volunteer for leg blast, just wondering is there any way I can corporate it with TSPA or do you prefer I go back to TSPA after I’m done with leg blast? And is it fine for me to corporate the leg blast with other 3 days full body workout instead of THT, as long as I follow the same guidelines?

@Kyle. That’s why it’s optional. And only used towards the end of the program. And it’s brief and infrequent.

@Nick. I saw the issue. No idea why, but if you click ok and keep going to the area you want to go to, you’ll get it. So ignore it, keep clicking ok and go to the workout you want to go to.

Cheers Nick
