Week 4 Cycle 29

This 6 week training block will involve training two of the conventional variations of basic compound lifts in one day. For example, training the front squat and the back squat in the same day. This will allow us keep on top of technique gains in all lifts while also allowing us build on what were some serious strength gains after our previous cycle of utilizing accommodating resistance with bands.

 

We will also have a day dedicated to solely to core development and conditioning. This will be a nice way to use lighter loads after days of high load and will somewhat allow your body to recuperate throughout the training week.

 

As always, warm-ups will involve mobility and activation pieces as standard to prepare you for the lifts ahead.

 

Looking forward to this one folks!
