In-Season Strength

Two days a week to keep what you built in the off-season, without stealing anything from Friday night.

How to run it

  • Maintain intensity, cut volume. Heavy-enough loads at low reps hold strength; long sets only produce soreness.
  • Stop every set two reps short of failure. If bar speed drops, the set is finished.
  • Lift within 48 hours after competition, never within 48 hours before it.

Springbak® note

In-season, your total ground contacts are set by practice, not by your program. A stable, ultra-thin platform beneath your foot supports body control through the contacts you never count.
