CFH Training Days 27/10/2014 – 02/11/2014
Week 5/12
The weeks seem to pass so quickly, can you belive its November? Soild work by eeryone in the first 4 weeks of the current phase. We’ve been preparing the body for the challange ahead. The next 4 weeks will follow a simular patten to the last, with some interesting progressions.
You will notice that we are doing 1 1/4 reps on both the back squat and the bench press in this mesocycle. The 1/4 repitition will be an incomplete concentric on the initial overcoming phase of the movement. The 1/4 movement benifits Motor Unit Activation (MUA) in a number of ways:
a. It increases the time under tension for each repitition
b. It stimulates a panic button when the initial concentric is not complete, making the brain go “holly sh*&, I’m about the get cruched…. All hands, or in the case muscle fibres, are put into action.
We will also be introducing the 1-6 Principal on Deadlift days to call on Post-tetanic Facilitation (PTF). “In simple terms, PTF represents the idea that a more powerful muscular contraction can be achieved if that contraction is preceded by a strong muscular contraction” (PoliquinGroup). You will us heavy loads for the 1repitition to activate the nuromuscular system which in turn will allow you to pick-up more weight for 6 repititions. Enabling you to build bigger and stronger muscles… GAINZ!
The behind the head strit press has progressed to a behind the head push-press. The technique of lowering the bar to your back needs to be mastered. Don’t go rushing towards the higher weights in this movement until you can successfully lower the bar.
Lets see who has been practicing their reverse kneeling lunges from the first 4 weeks. The pistol squat progressions continue this month with pistol squats on a box. Your hipflexor and abdomnal strength will also be tested with the gymnastic ball-ups and l-sits.
The Olympic lifting will continue in this phase with 2 days a week. Some simple complexes to keep the lifting form in tune for the future.
