HOW TO CREATE A TRAINING PROGRAM PART 4

Now it is time to put it all together.  I won't go into all the specifics of the exact movements that you need to do as the options are almost limitless.  I will give example movements that you can use later.

The main thing to focus on for this last step in the program is to tailor it to your specific goals.

If you are targeting strength and getting stronger, you will want to work with a 1:3 work to rest ratio for the strength portion.  For example if you do 3 sets of 5 of back squat, each set will take roughly 20 seconds.  So that is 20 seconds of work. So if you put in 20 seconds of work, you then need to take 60 seconds of rest, 1:3 ratio.

If your main objective is fat loss then you will want to stick closer to a 1:1 ratio for work to rest.

For the GPP or cardio section, you will want to focus on getting your heart rate up, record what you did, and then your next training session you will want to increase the amount of work that you did in the same amount of time.  For example:  training session one you did 35 burpees in three minutes.  Your next training session you would want to focus on doing 38 burpees in the same three minutes.  Then the next session you will want to get 40 burpees in the same three minutes.

All you are trying to do in the section of your program is increase the amount of work that you do in a given time.

Nice job on making it this far.  Tune in tomorrow as I will break each section down into more movements as well as help you create a training log.
