Today's Training: Strength Training

In the 5-3-1 system, this week is a deload week so loads are much lighter and it is a recovery week. It is good timing for me as I am headed to my daughter's wedding this coming weekend so gym access was going to be compromised anyway!

Warmup: Ankle mobs, forearm wall slides, tabletop hamstring, tabletop hip rotators, Swiss ball chest opener, Swiss ball hip flexor, 1/2 kneeling adductor, Brettzel 1.0

Workout: RFESS 1 x 5 @ 60, 70, 85; Landmine 1/2 moon 3 x 12; 1 arm KB swing 3 x 10 @ 24 kg.; chins 2 x 15; KB Farmers carries 2 x 70 yds. @ 32 kg.

Comments: This is a piece of the training puzzle that many people miss in that planned recovery/deload weeks are critical to prevent injury and ensure long term progress. You should have every 4th or 5th week as a deload week.

Train hard and train smart!
