As well as going over fuel program we also talked and detailed down every step about training day, what you do and etc. so here is my detailed down steps of a training day. Training day
- Sign up/Show up
- Signing up keeps you more committed
- Be 15 minutes early, either riding on a bike or getting some movement in
- If you can't get there early, make sure you are on time and hustling
- Make sure Coach Lew or any trainer knows you will be there
- Decide lift schedule for the week early on and commit. Otherwise, communicating specific conflicts
- Prep
- Eat the right foods before a lift
- Drinking enough fluids throughout the day
- Maybe do some stretching before the lift
- Come in wearing the right clothes
- Coming into each lift without distractions and with energy
- Dynamic -
- Sign in and get to track as soon as Coach Lew says you can go in
- Though repetitive sometimes, work hard to help with mechanics
- Prep your body for movement and avoid injury
- Pre lift
- Most people think this is not needed, but it gets your body ready for your lift
- Gets your CNS and your other muscle groups ready
- Good transition into actual weight stuff
- Bar complex
- As soon as you are done with pre-lift, get to your rack with 2 others
- Complete pretty quickly
- Someone should always be at the bar, so no talking too much
- Gets movements down for main lifts so you'll be able to do heavier weights and still have good form
- Primary - A/B
- The Primary lifts help with whatever sport or activity
- Improve your strength, speed, and performance
- Give yourself good rest time
- Stay on task and don't just go around and talk, though
- Make sure you go through your sets at a good pace
- Supplemented - C/D
- Keep the same energy going
- Might not be as fun, but it is still important to improve different aspects of your performance with different movements
- Extra
- Can meet the desires of working on something more specific, not necessarily athlete-based
- It could be especially important for injuries and can gets you back faster
- Make sure you do everything you are told to do outside of the regular schedule
- Post - rolling out/shakes
- If you aren't feeling good roll out/stretch after the lift
- Make sure to get the shake if you can have to help with muscle recovery
Julian,
ReplyDeleteI appreciate how thorough you are with your blog posts so far. It's good to see that you're learning how to pitch a "product" (blog #2) and also build out a training plan here in your third blog. There are so many variables and different components of running your own facility - and you're off to a great start in learning all of it!
