Training
Its been a week and 2 days since starting this round of GPP, I can with all confidence say, it was a success to drop the volume on Monday and apply that across the board for all days. Everyone is able to get through the workouts and make it through HIIT without commenting about vomiting. Anyone can train till they get sick, that is not the point of the stimulus we are going for here.
Coaching
Block Periodization is meant to train one attribute for a set period of time. The entire goal of MY GPP is to bring up the ability to recover, metabolic stress, which will allow for healthy hypertrophy and strength training. I am also focused on the single leg and arm imbalances I have, doing these allows me to focus on how I am contracting and bracing my abdomen, it has expressed some serious weaknesses from one side to another. In the past, these training days I had the mental mindset to just get through, now with added intent behind what I am doing it has added another layer.
