Notes

General


It is important to realize that this plan is a skeleton. Every athlete is unique, and it may be necessary to change and modify many of these exercises and numbers depending on how my athlete looks during his workouts. I want to ensure that technique stays strong throughout the duration of his workouts, and that will be the main factor when assessing progress and work capacity.

%1RM Ranges


Also, I want to clarify that when I have a range of %1RM (i.e. 85-95% in Phase III), I am planning to hit both the low and high numbers of that range during a phase. These charts are designed using phases, and not individual workouts. As you will see in "Training Schedule," Phase II and III are each three weeks long. During the first week of Phase III, I will be aiming to push my athlete to 85% of his 1RM. However, at the end of week three, he should be exceeding 85%, and should be closer to 95% of his original 1RM.

During Phase I have also included ranges of %1RM, even though this phase is one week long. This is because the athlete may not previously performed some of my exercises before, and he may have no reference point. He may be learning the movement for the very first time on set one, but by set three he understands the movement and can increase resistance very quickly.
