Back on the fortification wagon, fellas. Again, the remainder of this cycle has us building volume using the estimated 1rm's we are using from the 5rm's we did a couple of weeks ago. New here? That's okay. If you don't know your 1-rep max, you can guess for now.

The benefit of working in volume and utilizing percentage work is that we are getting our bodies ready for our hypertrophy phase, which will begin roughly sometime in mid-March. For now, we are building a base of strength and conditioning and working on injury prevention for the rest of the year.

Lots and lots of gains to be made in this training block, so don't let off the gas!
