Progressive overload

Bodies adapt to what they have already done. Something must go up — reps, range, tempo or load.

DOMS is not damage

Muscle soreness peaks a day or two later and fades as you repeat the movement. It is not a measure of a good session.

Consistency beats intensity

Twelve minutes most days outperforms one long session a week for nearly every adaptation.

The clock

Round 1the warm-up — 70%, perfect form
0:00A1 → A2
2:00B1 → B2
4:00C1 → C2
Round 2the score round — beat every Round 1 number
6:00A1 → A2
8:00B1 → B2
10:00C1 → C2

Each couplet: 60 s scored → the strength set → 10 s to move on. Done at 12:00.

How to run it

  1. Strength first, speed second: full range beats extra reps every time.
  2. Two seconds down, one second up — the lowering builds the muscle.
  3. Add the harder version only after a clean last set.
  4. Breathe out on the effort. Never hold the breath under load.
