Week 5 Cycle 26

 

One of the main new changes we are making to this next 6 week training block is the addition of a totals day once a week. This is a power lifting comp style day whereby you will try and set a 3RM in your front squat and deadlift along with a 5RM in your floor press. Your combined weight lifted in those rep maxes will form your total for that week. The aim is to increase this total week on week.

 

We will also be using Every Min on the Min (EMOM) style training for a couple of big lifts, namely the back squat and split stance OH press. This will allow us build volume h=while also keeping the intensity of the lift fairly high.

 

We will also have sets to failure one day per week in RFESS, Chins and pushups which again will be another way of judging your progress week on week.

 

We will be having 1 day which will incorporate a long conditioning piece and 1 day which will have 2 short conditioning pieces. These will remain constant throughout the 6 weeks in order to see some progress.

 

Apart from that, as always we will train single leg , single arm, bodyweight, KB’s etc and just look to keep on improving.
