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 will show you how to program this.
