Sunday AUGUST 29th 2021 -Week 1 “The Gains will be legendary” **Programming options. Choose one of the training tiers to follow (Red, White, or Blue). Each day perform ONLY that part of the Major Lift section. Red is the foundational strength template, based on 5/3/1. White is the Powerlifting tier for max strength building. Blue is the bodybuilding tier. All other sections of the day’s training will be completed by everyone.**
-Anyone following the 4 day routine should not do “humpday pumpday”. They should do the active rest. Whether they do the Sabado Gigante (which is the same programming as humpday pumpday) is case by case depending how they feel from the week’s worth of work. Don’t over do it. The Sabado Gigante often overlaps things done during the week. When in doubt, push or drag sleds and do some curls.
-Afterburners: These are optional conditioning pieces of the programming. Whether a person completes this is dependent on their goals and calorie intake. If actual sustained strength and mass is the goal, the afterburners should not be done. At least not without increased calorie count to accommodate the extra effort. That being said, some sustained sweat should happen at least once a week. That is the active rest on Wednesday.
Additionally, some of the movements in the Afterburners are not found in the GainCity accessory work. If a person wants to get those movements in for accessory but doesn’t want to overdo the sweats, just take the movements and rep counts out of the afterburner and do them like regular sets/reps.

100m Buddy carry
10 deadlifts

**Switch every round i.e. One partner carries his buddy, then performs 10 deadlifts and 5 power cleans as fast as possible. Then the other partner carries and performs the lifts. Basically, one partner completes a round, while one rests.
**If a person cannot buddy carry at all, they will be of no use in an apocalyptic scenario. Have them farmer carry instead, but weight must be awkward and uneven i.e. a kb and a med ball, one on shoulder, one held at waist. Something like that.
**Weight will be dictated by the powerclean. Same weight for both deadlift and powerclean.
**If youre doing this alone:
30 min max rounds
100m Sandbag Carry
10 Deadlifts
5 Powerclean
Rest 1:1 between rounds
Girth differential:
Tabata:
Empty BB curls, and OH extensions
Alternate. Go for 8 mins
