– Schedule Wisely

When designing a weekly plan for your


training, consider how different styles of
training affect different systems and thus
affect recovery. For example:

Allow for some "space" between different


types of stressors. For example, if you
stress something one day, do a lighter
session or work a different type of stress
the next day. The sample plan at the end
will show you how to program this.

– Schedule Wisely

When designing a weekly plan for your


training, consider how different styles of
training affect different systems and thus
affect recovery. For example:

Joint stressors: sprints, high impact


jumps, heavy barbell trainingSpinal
compression: heavy squats, deadlifts,
farmer's walksNervous system
stressors: speed/power training, heavy,
low-rep training (especially >90% 1RM),
training to failureMetabolic stressors: 
lactate work (i.e., doing things that last
about 30 seconds to 3 minutes and
produce a lot of lactic acid. Great for fat
loss, but harder to recover from)
Allow for some "space" between different
types of stressors. For example, if you
stress something one day, do a lighter
session or work a different type of stress
the next day. The sample plan at the end
