Sunday NOVEMBER 28th 2021 -Week 2 “Fresh, Hot and Delicious”
**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.

*This will get aggressive quickly for most people. Make sure to scale the pullups properly. Bands are ok as long they are not kipping in them. Scaling to jumping pullups may be the best option for many people. Ring rows as a last resort are fine.
*Knee pushups are never allowed. Trunk development is a large part of a pushup. Scaling to knees, takes that stimulus away. Instead of knees, elevate people as high as necessary on benches or boxes so they can get proper form and knock out some reps. Looking for minimum 5-7 Pushups per round. Strong folk should be getting upwards of 20 reps at least in the first few rounds.

*Each rep of DB Burpee stepups consists of one burpee on DB’s, then one step up on each leg.
* Use a box height that is low enough so people do not have an egregious pelvic tilt. For many, this will mean a height lower than 20” and will need to stack plates for their proper height. This will keep their pelvis inline and happy and allow for heavier weights.
*Different sized weights for each stage is allowed.
*The floor press should be unbroken for the first 2 rounds at least.
