This program is for anyone looking to increase their strength and aerobic performance. If you are feeling burned out from endless metcons and boring HIIT training, this program packs the punch you are looking for. Derived from the concepts and principles of Patrick O'Shea, I've created a linear strength progression combined with cardiovascular exercise. The goal of this program is to increase strength, power, endurance and aerobic output.
