Hey guys, I've known about periodization for a few yrs, but never did, I also started keeping a log. I'm trying to rededicate myself and take my workouts more seriously and take it to the next level. I've got a periodization time frame set up, and I was wondering if anybody had any tips. The first session is what I'm currently doing, and its the order from current to latest: Fat loss, ...

In basic English, periodization is simply the organization and planning of training. In sport, this planning is usually based upon achieving maximum physical abilities (strength, speed, power, etc..) for a given competition or period of competitions. In strength training, it might be organized around a specific goal for the muscles. Most people who strength train actually plan or ...

I followed Ironwill's advice and put the leg curls in. In doing this over a 12 week time perion shoul I incorperate a periodization program for the major lifts or leave them at 3 sets of 5?

Hey all, Just a couple quick questions - Note - not a competitive lifter just a fan / rugger. Technique For the push jerk, should the athlete try to stick the lift after getting underneath the bar or should they plan on sinking down and dropping low. I've seen it done both ways and was curious and was hoping someone could shed some light on that. Also, when periodizing your programs is...

Do you use it to prepare for fights or competitions? Do you go through periods where you focus on grappling and other periods where you focus more striking? Or periods where you focus more on cardio, and others on strength? How so? I've been finding that I can't maxmize my progress with strength at the same time as cardio. I feel that I have to maintain one while I spend more time on the ...

Hey JR, After being pretty seriously overtrained and not having important matches for a couple of months, Im now building up some basic strength and conditioning to start at the beginning phase of my periodization again. Well, I had to take a good rest first. I wonder if you could give any advice on what kinds of strength-, conditioning- and maybe on-court training to do to ...

While cluster training, wave loading, undulating and conjugate periodization schemes, Sheiko, circa max cycles, variable resistance, accommodating resistance, ...
