The training protocol
Four sessions,
one rhythm.
Two lower-body days, two upper-body days, and aerobic work stacked around them. Every session has a purpose, a prescribed intensity and a recorded result.
Anatomy of one session
01
Prepare
Raise temperature, prime joints, wake the nervous system up.
02
Primary
The main strength movement of the day, capped and logged.
03
Secondary
Single-leg and posterior-chain work to close the gaps.
04
Conditioning
Aerobic work at a prescribed intensity, never random.
05
Downregulate
Breathing and a short check-in before you leave the floor.
