Since my last post back in June, I have been steadily eating at a surplus while focusing my training on powerlifting. During this period I have run three different programmes:

While I was cutting I was running a full body calisthenics-focused programme three-to-four days a week, but I had been wanting to try a split programme which would allow me to train with more frequency throughout the week. The idea that was stuck in my head was that more volume throughout the week would result in more progress at a faster rate, and given that I would be largely starting from scratch again with the squat, the bench press and the deadlift, this seemed like a good way to get in a lot of practice of those movements.
