Strength and performance training uses progressive overload on the major lifts and athletic movements to build force, power and resilience. It serves anyone who wants to be stronger, from a first barbell squat to a competitive athlete preparing for a season.
Lifts are taught and reviewed first, because a clean pattern makes heavier weight safer and more productive.
Weights, sets and reps are laid out across weeks, with built-in lighter weeks, so strength climbs without constant plateaus or burnout.
For athletes, the program is matched to the demands and calendar of the sport: strength in the off-season, power and maintenance as competition nears.
Every session is logged, so you can see what you lifted last month and what the next target is.
Every plan is built around the individual, so your coach will adjust this. As a general shape, the first four weeks of strength & performance coaching tend to run like this.
Squat, hinge, press and pull patterns are taught and assessed with light weight.
Sets and reps are set at manageable loads, and you start logging each session.
Small weight or rep increases are added where technique allows.
A planned lighter week lets the body adapt. Then your numbers are reviewed and the next block begins.
