Training For Life | Building a Performance Plan That Lasts

Welcome to The Training for Life Series! Discover workouts that create less wear and tear on the body, help stimulate and rebuild muscles and joints, and create a body built for longevity. Here’s what to expect:

Week 1: Strength Phase

Stimulus rotation is all about changing up what you’re working on. In other words, repetitive exercises that you use time and time again end up working against you in the long run. Here, we dig into how to understand what stimulus rotation is and how to build programming that leverages it for building a healthy training program.

Next, we get into how to program a routine you can apply across your weekly/monthly regimen.

Week 2: Hypertrophy

In this section, we dig into how to program out a week where building muscle is the goal. Strength drives the central nervous system, and it also pushes your muscles into overdrive, maximizing them to their highest potential. Hypertrophy is the method for adding on more muscle mass.. Learn how to use higher repetitions and tempos to grow those muscles!

Week 3: Isolateral Programming

Isolateral movements are made for building balance and allowing weaker muscles to catch up. Week 3’s programming will dig into how to lighten the weight and hit the muscles with balance-based exercises.

Week 4: Deloading

You’ve been working hard for the last three weeks! Time to deload. Deloading is exactly as it sounds: We reduce the weight slightly and pull back on total effort. But we are not going to stop everything. Find out how to properly deload and what a healthy regimen looks like for allowing the muscles, bones, and central nervous system to restore themselves.

Exercises Explained

Here, we get into demonstrating a number of essential exercises you’ll want to incorporate into your routine. We’ll explain how you can add variation over time. You’ll learn proper technique in both what to do and what NOT to do. Coming out of this segment, you’ll have dozens of exercise variations you’ll be able to perform from a core set of key essentials.
