FAQs
How should I time this program with my upcoming competition?
The program is designed to perfectly lead into competition from 8 weeks out, week 8 being tournament week. If you're closer than 8 weeks out, just start on the number of weeks out you are rather than on week 1.
How should I organize lifts, conditioning, and skill work?
Try and group your hardest efforts on certain days, and lower efforts on other days. Ideally, on a day with a lift and an anaerobic conditioning session, you would have a harder practice. On a day with zone 2 aerobic conditioning, you could have an easier practice.
