Training for Life.
● Means “joined together”● Training several motor abilities
within the same week● Programming is sequential to
create favorable conditions for strong training effects without overtraining
● Structured, but constantly varied● Emphasis on limitations
Training for Life.
● Refers to strength of the whole muscular system
● Foundation of any general fitness program
● Can be developed using GPP measures such as sledwork
● If neglected the clients progress can be impeded and/or significant deficiencies may exist
● Base of Conjugate Training
Training for Life.
● Improving the aerobic abilities of fast-twitch fibers means high power output can be maintained longer
● Excellent for general population athletes
● Manage stress levels● Bridge gap between demanding
training ● Recovery via decreasing resting HR
Training for Life.
● Brings forth the greatest strength gains
● Maximal number of motor units is
activated
● Incredibly safe when used correctly
● Creates a synergy between Dynamic
Effort Method
● Low volume, but highest intensity
Training for Life.
● Less emphasis on loading & more emphasis on efficiency then bar speed
● Balances out training modalities to prevent overtraining
● Utilizes Type 2 fibers● Recruits high-threshold motor units● Improve motor patterns● Dynamic Effort Lower● Dynamic Effort Upper
Training for Life.
● Utilizes Fast twitch muscle-fiber -
higher threshold motor units
● As you age type 2 fibers deteriorate
● Applicable to other aspects of health
and performance
● Done on Dynamic Effort Days using
jump variations
Training for Life.
● Stimulate hypertrophy - body composition
● Low intensity/high volume● Sarcoplasmic adaptations● Ability for muscle to generate
force● Decrease risk of injury● Base building - general strength● Done on all ME/DE days
Training for Life.
Training for Life.
● Day 1: Max Effort Lower● Day 2: Strongman Endurance ● Day 3: Max Effort Upper● Day 4: Cardiac Output Method● Day 5: Dynamic Effort Lower● Day 6: Dynamic Effort Upper● Day 7: Active Recovery or OFF
Training for Life.
● 1 Rep Maxes - Build over the course of 8-10 sets. Use a rep scheme of 5-4-3-2-1 then 3-4 singles ABOVE 90%
● Rep-schemes: All work includes WORK sets - do not count your warm-up sets that led to your work weight for both assistance work and dynamic effort work.
● Accommodating Resistance: There will be options for use if available.
● Specialty Bars: There will be options for use if available.● Recovery between sessions: There should be a minimum of 72-
lower sessions and upper sessions must to be separated by 72 hours.
Training for Life.
● Week 11 is a “deload week” and week 12 is a “testing week”● Weeks 10 & 11 the barbell volume will be lower, but the
special exercise work will still be high● Weeks 10 and 11 we’ll be running a 2-week dynamic effort
wave for the lower and upper-body● Weeks 10, 11 there will be two “recovery” sessions and NO
strongman work● Week 12 there will be three testing sessions and 4 off days● Week 12 the ideal split would be 96 hours between session
1 and 3 and at least 48 hours between session 1 and 2.● How to set-up bands here.
Training for Life.
● Day 1 - Monday - ME Lower● Day 2 - Tuesday - Strongman Conditioning● Day 3 - Wednesday - ME Upper● Day 4 - Thursday - Recovery● Day 5 - Friday - DE Lower● Day 6 - Saturday - DE Upper● Day 7 - Sunday - Recovery
