Peak Performance is a periodized 24-week strength and conditioning program available in PDF format.

It is designed for both the intermediate and advanced-level individual or athlete and consists of six distinct, four-week training blocks or phases to ensure long-term progress, functionality, and maximum gains in physical capacity and durability.

Each training session is programmed for a training time of 30-45 minutes (after the warm-up and depending on fitness level) making Peak Performance one of the most efficient ways to increase physical fitness and improve optimal readiness.

Phase 2

This phase introduces movements and or protocols that are more challenging to the Central Nervous System (CNS). These movements include variations in both body weight and loaded exercises that are designed to stress muscle tissue and connective tissue for hypertrophy (muscle building) adaptations .

For bodyweight-specific movements, more difficult variations, eccentric training, time under tension techniques, and other higher-intensity training protocols are utilized to stress the muscles for growth and adaptation. For loaded exercises, we will work in the 8-15 rep range for strength endurance/ hypertrophy.

There is also an equal emphasis on increasing aerobic capacity development for performance during this periodized block of training. These sessions will carry over from the previous phase and continue in progressive fashion.

Week 1, 2, and 3 will build in intensity with Week 4 being an intentional de-load for recovery purposes.

Each session in week 4 begins with a 'readiness test' to evaluate fitness and proceeds with reduced volume and intensity.

Ensure you are eating enough calories each day and getting plenty of sleep to adapt to this phase's demands adequately. If you are not recovering properly, you must address your recovery (eat more sleep more, or both).

I understand that this can be tough with family and work commitments, however, if you do your best, positive results can be expected.
