Somewhere in there, progress will stall. So what do now?
Option1: do nothing
This is definitely an option but it SUCKS. It means hitting the same weight and the same movements week after week until progress occurs.
Option2: deload
This means a week of lighter weights and volume on the same movements. The idea is that you will restart a new cycle at a lower weight (but a higher threshold than the previous cycle) post deload. Great if you plan on keeping the same movements for a longer period of time.
Option3: change movements
This is NOT a program overhaul. It is a form of deload by exchanging the stalled movement for a similar movement. This is the money shot if you have no intention of being an expert on what stalled. I.e. Gen pop, quadrant 3, non sports specific damn near everyone training.
