Week 1 Cycle 19

 

This new cycle we will be re-incorporating a few exercises that have been left out of training cycles for a while namely being weighted chest pressing exercises along with barbell complexes.

 

We will also be implementing a lot of pause work into the program to help improve people’s starting strength which should hopefully keep people making steady progress in terms of their strength levels in all the big lifts. Combined with this will be some max effort reps which will challenge people to maintain good lifting technique when fatigue is accumulates and will add another stimulus to the muscles so they adapt stronger.

 

Training days will change week to week also so those that are on 2 set training days per week will see greater variation.
