Strong Living

Program Description

Introduction to strength training built around foundational movement patterns. The most important part of this program is that it is done with progression. Doing the same thing each week will be far less beneficial then steadily increasing load. The intensity you should strive for is “RPE 8”. This means that a set should end with just enough in the tank to squeeze out two more reps. When starting you can do a little less than this, but if the weight is so light that you could to 4, 5, or more reps beyond the set the work will be less productive. This being said, going to absolute failure is not necessary. Soreness and discomfort is good, but nothing should be acutely painful. Especially if the pain increases during the workout. Training hard is the goal, and nothing slows hard work down more than injury. Listen to your body. Most importantly have fun and get strong!
