Today brings a NEW Strength & Power Cycle.  Here is a brief description of how it will work.

Major lifts and days of the week will look like this for the next 6 weeks (July 30^th-Sept 7^th):

• Monday (Back Squat)
• Tuesday (Deadlift)
• Wednesday (Shoulder Press)
• Thursday (Front Squat)
• Friday (Bench Press)

The plan calls for choosing one of the two pressing movements (shoulder press or bench press) based on where you feel you need the most improvement and for you to use the other press day as a rest day or to integrate a MetCon workout. A very important aspect of this programming is for all athletes to take at least two days of rest during the strength cycle.

• Tuesday – (Deadlift) S&P
