Sunday September 20th, 2020. “When in doubt, throttle out.” Week 2

Sunday September 20th, 2020. “When in doubt, throttle out.” Week 2



-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.

https://youtu.be/K93S2UiXhPY - Video shows 1 power clean followed by 2 push press. In this workout, perform all 30 power cleans first, then perform 60 push press.

**Weight should be moderate so that the barbell can be moved consistently. Should NOT be light enough to be performed unbroken. Expect to have the weight too heavy to be able to finish at once.
