Phase 3 week 2
Last week was about relearning how to move fast. Feeling the patterns, getting comfortable with the intent behind each rep, and trusting that lighter load with maximum speed is actually doing something. And it was. Your nervous system was working overtime even if the weight didn’t feel heavy.
This week we are building on that. (Only 3 week peak) You are going to add a set to your primary work and if last week felt controlled and manageable, it is time to bump the load by about 5%. Not because we are chasing heavy, but because your body adapted and it is ready for more stimulus. The movement still needs to be fast. The intent still needs to be there on every single rep. If the speed slows down the weight is too heavy, back it off.
You should start to feel the difference this week. The patterns are more familiar, the positions are more comfortable, and your body knows what is being asked of it now. That is when training gets really good.
