How to apply the program


1. Log the performance (time/reps) in your training-journal of every exercise with a
repetition range.
2. Improve these exercises from session to session by at least 1 repetition/2" seconds
total (accumulated from all sets). No 2 consecutive sessions will be the same!
3. All the relevant exercises have a progression video attached. Choose the
progression that is suitable for you to perform the exercise within the
repetition/duration range prescribed with great technique, as demonstrated.
4. Once you reached the ceiling of the repetition/duration range in all sets, move on to
the next progression of the respective exercise.
5. Rest between sets until fully recovered. Depending on the exercise, it may take 2-4
minutes.
It takes 1-2 additional years on average to achieve these goals from the prerequisite's
standpoint. Take your time to apply the program and its progressions accordingly.

Words of wisdom…
Arrive to your sessions prepared, physically and mentally. Bring your training journal. Log
and track your performances each day. Improve each consecutive session by little.
Controlled full range of motion repetitions. Apply technique intently. Move on, rest,
recover, sleep. The slow and methodical progression rate is ultimately the fastest way to get
there.
