Cycle 32 Week 2

 

This new 6 week cycle sees, as per usual, a nice change up from what we have been doing during the last programme, which saw even the long term members manage to set new PR's in various lifts.

 

For most of the days, we will be implementing a “core” warmup which will allow us to work on some isolated/ stabilization muscles while also preparing us for the bigger lifts ahead.

 

The bigger lifts such as the squat, deadlift, bench etc will follow a rep scheme of 5/4/3/2 adding weight for each set.

 

The inclusion of the Front Foot Elevated Split Squat as one of our single leg strength exercises can be seen along with the re-introduction of the BB Step up.

 

As always members can expect to be challenged when it comes to overall full body strength

, stability, balance, mobility, conditioning and of course, we'll have good fum along the way.

 

Have a look for yourself to see what’s in store.
