Cornerstone of our Philosophy
Programming and Progressions
Stress – Adapt – Recover – Repeat
Proper programming is necessary to initiate a response from the body. This “stress” needs to be specific in nature to goals desired.
Too much, too fast doesn’t work and too little, too far apart doesn’t either.
Once loading parameters are determined the rule of progression needs to be applied.
Progression is necessary to cause the body to change. Once the “stress” is recognized the body will adapt (i.e. increase lean mass, strength, etc.).
To continue the adaptation process, workouts need to progress from one to the other. Simply doing the same thing workout after workout, will not cause a change and can actually lead to regression.
Progressing safely is key: One cannot simply always do more weight and more reps every workout. It is about forcing the muscles to be challenged in some form in which they are not accustomed.
Proper progression is everything from increased range of motion, tempo, rest intervals, and sets – not just increased weight and increased reps.
Since no one can simply just lift more and more, this is where programming is key.
A program should last only as long where progressions are either no longer made, or stopped just shy of that point. A properly designed training program with properly implemented progressions is not an easy task and is where most mistakes are made, but if done properly – you can dramatically change your body
