This is a 12-week full body split (M/W/F) with conditioning days incorporated in between main lifting days on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, with Sunday a focus on mobility/recovery.

FAQs
Who is this for?
Someone who has intermediate training experience and is looking to become more well rounded in a performance program that covers both strengthening and conditioning.
How long is each session?
Main lifting days should be ~60 minutes and conditioning days ~45 minutes. Depending on detail of warm-up and cool-down, sessions should not last more than 75 minutes.
What if I miss a day?
A few options here - 1. Just do the day missed the following day, 2, complete the day missed within sessions later in the week as this is a full body split where foundational movement patterns are touched upon multiple times throughout the week and/or 3. Move onto the next day.
Is support available?
Yes, please just send me a private message
What if I can’t train 6-7 days a week?
Stick with the main lifting days and mix in the conditioning sessions based upon goals. These could be done after lifting sessions in a modified manner or at the end of the week as a hybrid. Feel free to send a message for guidance!
