PHYSICAL READINESS SESSION

The following training session is taken directly from my Daily Readiness Program. These workouts are designed to safely train the entire body in balanced fashion in only 20 to 30 minutes per day.

The emphasis of this program is upper body and lower body strength development consisting of three days per week. Aerobic conditioning is programmed for two days each week but I highly recommend at least three for best results.

In these particular readiness sessions, we begin with power and activation exercises designed to prep the central nervous system, muscles, and connective tissue. This potentiation should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.

Following the potentiation, we train the entire body succinctly. No wasted time or effort.

For those who have a busy schedule and don't want to have to think about what to do each day and want to ensure you are training effectively, this program is for you.

@ SME or Sub Max Effort means accumulating the prescribed # of reps while staying away from muscle failure and excess muscle fatigue. Break the reps into cluster sets as necessary.
