Anatomy Ladies That Lift – Metabolic Conditioning Phase 9

LADIES THAT LIFT PHASE 9

The four/five percent set/rep scheme for the improvement of maximal strength.
It increases your rate of progress so that you reach new standards, regardless of your current condition.
The four/five percent set/rep solution involves a set pattern of progression. It requires increasing the amount of resistance by 4-5 percent each workout, while simultaneously performing one fewer rep each workout.
After you complete your fourth workout, you will have increased your strength in each lift by approximately 10 percent!

Intensity Zone
The number of reps should fall between 4 and 7, such as 5-7 and 4-6. The selection is somewhat arbitrary; just be certain to write down the rep bracket you selected and stick with it for the duration of the program.

 

Giant sets are a high-intensity training technique in which you do four or more exercises consecutively without taking any rest between exercises. It’s a similar concept as the basic superset, only with at least two more exercises added on. For example B1, B2, B3 & B4.

Hypertrophy I
Type I muscle fibers are more efficient over long periods of time. They are mainly used for postural maintenance (such as holding the head upright), or endurance exercises (like marathon running).
10-12 reps (70-75%)

Strength endurance
Endurance means encouraging and training your muscles to perform for an extended period of time. This means doing a lot of repetitions. People targeting muscular endurance will aim for a range from 12-20+ reps.
20 reps (60%)
12-15 reps (65-68%)
