Sunday Oct 25th, 2020 “The comfort zone is where dreams go to die” Week 1.



Sunday Oct 25th, 2020 “The comfort zone is where dreams go to die” Week 1.

-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 doesnt want to overdo the sweats, just take the movements and rep counts out of the afterburner and do them like regular sets/reps.

**Complete 6 suspersets of bench press, non-stop, max reps, decreasing in weight, down to the empty bar or near. Using small plates, load the bar to 60%.

Do this 6 times, all the way down to at or near empty BB.** https://youtu.be/47t0NtU5FoQ This CT Fletcher video shows the basic idea. In the video, he goes for 10 reps at each weight, working to 200 reps. We’ll be going for max reps at each weight, and only decreasing in weight. Not going back up again.
