Week of 10.2.23
Week 4 Fall Fuerte - 5x5 on all lifts this week!
It is likely athletes will experience some form of central nervous system fatigue by this week in the program with all the heavy volume we’ve done in the first 3 weeks.
Athletes who feel beat up shouldn’t worry about hitting exact prescribed percentages. Aim for a challenging set of 5 by feel. For example, If 75% feels like 90% on a lift this week, keep your top sets there.
But for athletes that feel good, send it and try to hit 87-90% for 5RMs!
