As we dive into another macrocycle this week, athletes will experience an increase of volume. In the coming weeks you may notice more front squats, single leg work, deadlift variations, push press/jerk complexes, and vertical pressing strength. Remember, there is a plan with everything we do. Nothing is random. Everything has purpose and progression. Stick to the script. Don’t stress. Eat right. Sleep right. Pay attention to aches and pains… and you will progress.
