Other Programming
Intro Programming:
This is a 4 week program to be used as either an intro program for those that haven’t trained much, or as a bridge program for those who joined late in the training cycle.
The program is general and is designed to get you up to speed with both, how to read the programming sheet and to find out where your currently are in terms of numbers.
Plugin Taper:
This is a 1 week plugin to be used when you have a competition outside of the Natural Strongman Season.
You have two options for this:
Run Day 1 & 2 of the current program and then do Day 3 of this plugin 48 to 72 hours out.
Run the full plugin taper.
Which option you choose depends on your goals where we are in the main program and your circumstance so feel free to ask for direction in the Facebook Group.
Plugin Programming:
Click the link to head to our plug in programs page if there’s a specific issue you need to treat.
They’re generally higher frequency and higher intensity in nature's if you’re running one, just run one at a time would be my advice.
If you need some extra guidance, just ask in the facebook group.
Social And Coaching
The Private Facebook Group:
This is your hub to ask the coach questions on movements, the program and also a great place to socialise with the other strongmen and women we coach.
The Hotseat:
There will be a ‘hotseat’ Q&A every Saturday Morning at 10:00am.
It’s the best way to get an answer to any questions you may have that require a deeper response than in the Facebook group.
We run both the Weightlifting & Strongman hotseat at the same time as there are crossovers in both sports and it allows each group an insight into the others sport.
What Next?
I know it’s a lot of information to take in and have thrown at you all at the same time, but nows the time to take it in and learn it. I’ll see you in the Facebook group where you can ask any questions you have.
