Principles

  • Plyos first, fresh: 3 × 3–5, stop when speed drops.
  • Pair push and pull as a superset to save time.
  • Accessories: 2–3 sets, 1–2 reps short of failure.
  • Row after deadlifts: chest-supported or seal row, or cap Pendlay rows at RPE 8.
  • HM7 before every strength day: 7 min of handstands and mobility. HM21 on run days: the long version.
  • No HIIT the day after a deadlift-heavy week 3 session if your back is tired. Swap R2 to Zone 2.
