The Absolute Performance Training GPP (General Physical Preparedness) program focuses primarily on building your strength, power and functional conditioning.
The program incorporates Olympic Lifting (Snatch and Clean & Jerk), Powerlifting (Squats, Deadlifts & Presses), Strongman (Kettlebells, Dumbbells,Sandbags & Sleds) with Relative Strength (Bodyweight) exercises as well as Functional Conditioning (Row/Bike/Ski).
Each day’s session will include a warm up, strength/power/conditioning training along with workout notes explaining the intended stimulus as well as accessory/body maintenance pieces.
If you're looking for a training plan that will get you closer to your general strength goals, whether that's to compete in CrossFit or simply to look and perform better, be more functional every single day, then you've come to the right place.
