This is a 12week program designed to increase overall strength.
To get Strong AF you have to be willing to endure the repetitiveness of nailing your lifts.
Weight Training 3x/week: Each day will be a FULL BODY workout to maximize strength.
There are cardio days scheduled in between to work on cardiovascular health at low intensity. Low intensity cardio is also fantastic for fat burning.
Rest 1 day/week
There are an additional 2 weeks to the program which are your Testing Phases. It is essential that you collect and input this data in order to get a starting point, track your progress, and see that you reach your GOALS! Testing Phases are weeks 1 and 14.
Week 2-13: Based on the data from the initial Testing Phase, you will see that each session will give you the weight needed for the lifts based on percentage of your lift max. Progressive overload is the key to increaseing strength.
*This program can be done with dumbbells if a barbell is not available to you.
Don't overthink and don't over complicate your workouts when pure strength is the goal.
Get out there and crush it! Do Work!
