TRAINING GOALS

TRAINING PROGRAMS

TERMS | DEFINITIONS

DB	Dumbbell
BB	Barbell
1RM	1 Rep Max
BW	Bodyweight
ECCENTRIC	In an eccentric exercise, your muscle stays contracted while lengthening. EXAMPLE: It’s the downward motion of a push-up, pull-up, or squat.
ISOMETRIC	During isometric exercises, the muscle doesn’t noticeably change length and the affected joint doesn’t move. EXAMPLE: A wall sit, plank, or handstand hold.
CONCENTRIC	During a concentric exercise, the muscle length will shorten. EXAMPLE: The upward motion of a bench press, dumbbell row, or bicep curl.

*INTENSITY LEVEL

This will be the resistance weight (dumbbells, barbells, weight plates, cable machines, etc.) you will use in each exercise. There are 3 options available:

1 ) X % of your 1RM

2 ) ≤ X % of your BW

3 ) BW only

TRAINING PROGRAMS

STABILIZATION *

Stabilization training is used to increase muscular endurance and stability. It will help improve your ability to stabilize your joints and posture; high repetitions with a focus on increasing your proprioception.

STRENGTH ENDURANCE *

Strength Endurance training means training with a moderate number of repetitions with heavier weights. This phase of training will help your body adapt to higher volume workouts while increasing your strength. This type of training will involve compound sets of exercises.

HYPERTROPHY *

Hypertrophy Training refers to an increase in muscular size by increasing the number of sets performed while increasing the amount of resistance used. The amount of reps for each set will be moderate to low.

MAX STRENGTH *

Max Strength Training is a measure of how much force your body can exert. More sets. Less reps/set. Heavier weights.

POWER *

Power Training typically involves exercises which apply the maximum amount of force as fast as possible. It is based on the idea that Strength + Speed = Power. Power training workouts will combine a Strength focused exercise with a Power focused exercise for each body part.

TRAINING STYLE

SINGLE SET	Performing only 1 set of each exercise.
EXAMPLE
Resistance weight used: Exercise 1:.. 70% X 200 lbs. = 140 lbs.
START If your 1RM for Barbell Squat is 200 lbs., then the actual weight you will use for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform ONLY 1 SET of Barbell Squats with 140 lbs. FINISH Once this 1 set is completed, rest, and then move onto the next exercise.

MULTIPLE SET	Performing multiple sets of each exercise you have selected.
EXAMPLE
Resistance weight used: Exercise 1:.. 70% X 200 lbs. = 140 lbs.
START If your 1RM for Hex Bar Deadlift is 200 lbs., then the actual weight you will use for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform 1 set of Hex Bar Deadlifts with 140 lbs. FINISH Once this set is completed, rest according to your chosen Training Program and then REPEAT the same exercise for X amount of sets based off of your Fitness Level.

COMPOUND SET	Performing 2 exercises in rapid succession for the same muscles, or non-opposing muscle groups, with minimal rest in between the two exercises.
EXAMPLE
Resistance weight used: Exercise 1:.. 70% X 200 lbs. = 140 lbs. Exercise 2:.. 70% X 120 lbs. = 84 lbs.
START If your 1RM for Barbell Squat is 200 lbs., then the actual weight you will use for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform 1 set of Barbell Squats with 140 lbs. FINISH Once this set is completed, IMMEDIATELY begin Exercise 2, or at least with as minimal amount of rest time as possible. START If your 1RM for Dumbbell Lunges is 120 lbs. then the actual weight you will use for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform 1 set of Dumbbell Lunges with 80-90 lbs. (using either two 40 lb. dumbbells or two 45 lb. dumbbells). FINISH Once this set is completed, Rest 60 seconds, then REPEAT the same two exercises for X amount of Compound sets (as determined by your Fitness Level).

SUPERSET	Performing 2 exercises in rapid succession for opposing muscle groups with minimal rest in between the two exercises.
EXAMPLE
Resistance weight used: Exercise 1:.. 70% X 200 lbs. = 140 lbs. Exercise 2:.. 70% X 120 lbs. = 84 lbs.
START If your 1RM for Dumbbell Squat is 200 lbs. (two 100 lb. dumbbells), then the actual weight you will use for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform 1 set of Dumbbell Squats with 140 lbs (two 70 lb dumbbells). FINISH Once this set is completed, IMMEDIATELY begin Exercise 2, or at least with as minimal amount of rest time as possible. START If your 1RM for Dumbbell Deadlifts is 120 lbs. (two 60 lb. dumbbells), then the actual weight you will use for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform 1 set of Dumbbell Deadlifts with 80-90 lbs. (using either two 40 lb. dumbbells or two 45 lb. dumbbells). FINISH Once this set is completed, Rest 60 seconds, then REPEAT the same two exercises for X amount of Supersets (as determined by your Fitness Level).

PYRAMID SET	Increasing or Decreasing resistance weight with each set.
EXAMPLE
Resistance weight used: Exercise 1:.. 70% X 200 lbs. = 140 lbs.
START If your 1RM for Leg Press is 200 lbs., then the actual weight you will start for this exercise will be 70% of that total weight. This means you will perform the 1st Set of Leg Presses with 140 lbs. FINISH Once this set is completed, rest, and then repeat the same exercise for X amount of sets (as determined by your Fitness Level and Training Program you have chosen). You have the option to increase or decrease the weight of the dumbbells for the each set thereafter.
