How to use it

The first two weeks are for learning, not proving anything.

Complete Session A and Session B each week with at least one day between them. Use the opening sessions to learn each setup, record your weights and find controlled starting loads.

01

Open both sessions

See the full week before your first visit and watch demonstrations for unfamiliar exercises.

02

Follow the stated targets

Use the sets, rep ranges, rest guidance and reps-in-reserve target shown in the programme.

03

Repeat, then progress

Build towards the top of the range with control before moving to the next practical weight.
