Creating a program Is the first step whether your goal is body fat reduction, increasing lean body mass, or just general sports performance. You will need to progress through the different phases of training for your body to adjust for proper muscle balance and growth.
Using the different phases of training you can assure that you are progressing efficiently. Starting off in the Stabilization phase which I bring up a lot in my blogs. This is critical in maintaining stability in all of the phases of training. Stability exercises are exercises that are unstable but controlled, this will include proper posture and your adaption to getting the right muscles to fire. This would include high reps, low to moderate volume, intensity, and postural position. In this phase, our goal is to increase muscle endurance and stability while developing optimal neuromuscular efficiency ( coordination)
The next phase of training is Strength training, during this phase we will still want to maintain stability endurance but will start in increasing your prime movers. Here we will incorporate some supersets ( back-to-back exercises without rest) which will include traditional strength training followed right after with a stabilization exercise.
There are other parts of strength training phases that include hypertrophy and maximal strength. To determine the type of program are interested in and what phase of strength training you would like to include in a program. it would be better to have a conversation to best fit you and your goals.
Our last Phase would be the Power phase, this level is for successfully completing the stabilization & strength levels. This training emphasizes the development of speed and power. For more information about Power training please feel free to
