This is for:
-Endurance athletes (5k through marathon) and HYROX athletes who want to spend the off season REALLY focused on strength. Building muscle. Maintaining cardio fitness or maybe focusing more on top end speed.
-Those wanting to go through a TRUE STRENGTH SEASON.
-In the "off-season" meaning no true race coming up, WITH the intention of getting stronger for a few months while MAINTAINING miles and working on speed, power, strength.
What you’ll get:
FOUR repeatable sessions per week, each ~45 minutes:
-Day A (Anterior-focused): squat emphasis + horizontal push/pull + quad accessory + hip/rotation + calf/tibialis work
-Day B (Posterior-focused): hinge emphasis + vertical push/pull + hamstring accessory + hip/rotation + calf/tibialis work
-Day C (Power Focused Full Body): trap bar work + plyos + rotational work + incline press/ vert single arm pull + lateral hip movement
What it’s optimized for:
-Day D (Upper Body Focused)
Training characteristics:
-Muscle-building stimulus that fits endurance realities (moderate-to-high weekly sets, intelligently distributed).
-High training quality and repeatability THROUGH RIR (most work stays 1–3 reps shy of failure).
-A built-in plyometric “micro-dose” through good ol fashioned jump rope for ankle stiffness/reactivity with conservative weekly contacts.
How Often To Use The Program:
This is a 4 week program designed to be used as a BLOCK. 3 weeks of building strength and 1 week of a deload. The idea is to use the program over and over again for 12 weeks straight.. getting stronger each time.
