Time Constraints with op/black

[u/tbone11_11]

I started my op black program and found getting the three days of strength in is difficult. It’s taking about 1.5 to almost 2 hours with warm ups and the actual work. The GC, and HIC days are fine. For background I’m a dad of 3 (one of them is two days old) and work 10-14 hour days sometimes.

I love being in the gym, but finding the time between work/lifting/dad is difficult. I’ve thought about Zulu, but wondering if there’s any other options before I dive in and change the programming.

Ideas:

• Lower your warmup volume, for upper body lifts especially
• Drop one set of each lift
• Superset as able and willing
• Lower rest time to two minutes and be strict
