Progression

Progression#

Part One says what each adaptation is and roughly how to train it. This part is the long game: how to sequence work over months, what to do when progress stops, and what has to be given up to buy something else.

Every page here assumes you have read the relevant entry in the adaptations.

• Calisthenics

  Building relative strength through bodyweight progressions.

• Cardiovascular

  Building an aerobic engine, from base to threshold to peak.

• Strength

  Loading, periodisation and what to do when linear progress ends.

• Hypertrophy & Physique

  Growing muscle, and the body composition side of the equation.
