Conjugate Powerbuilding 3-Week Split
Try to keep your rest between sets to 30-45 seconds; for heavier sets, you
can rest up to 90 seconds. The reason to keep the rest short between sets is
simply to increase the volume (pounds/kg per minute) without increasing the
work.

Recap
● Powerbuilding is a combo between bodybuilding and powerlifting.
● I have not invented the name; maybe someone wants to take the
credit for it and that’s fine.
● The program I did is designed to build muscle and strength in four
hours per week.
● Whether you’re a powerlifter or you just want to build muscles, I
think you can learn from the program and get some new input for
your training.
