👉 FULL 4-DAY LADIES DEC-18 TRAINING BLOCK PLAN
With Ladies DEC-18 #HyperWorkouts, we are going for Higher Rep & Increased Isolation Work, to mix up the stimulus, take a break from the heavy CNS demanding lifting, and to illicit more frequency and volume for hypertrophy plateau busting. Plus, there are 4x Strength Days scheduled through the 8-weeks to maintain strength gains.

TO NOTE:
- Front Squats – The limiting factor for most people is their wrist and upper back mobility. As you see in the video, feel free to keep the bar in place with only your finger tips, and focus on keeping chest up, elbows up and an upright posture throughout the movement. Imagine a piece of string holding up your elbows.
- Single-Leg Stiff Deadlifts – You’ll require some balance here, but will feel the benefit with lots of glute and hamstring activation
- Band-Assisted Nordic Curls – The key with this exercise is to go as slow and controlled on the eccentric (lowering) portion fo the movement. To get enough reps out, and to help with maintaining tension for as long as possible, using bands can be really helpful.
- Mobility & Pre-Activation – The idea is to work on dynamic stretches and short power work to warm up your limbs into full range of motion and to do a little work on muscle recruitment timing. This will help you feel mentally and physically prepared for your working sets. That said, what you choose to do will depend on your weaknesses or mobility issues.
- Cardio – Very little in the way of cardio. Honestly, if you go full out on this workout, you’ll not have the capacity for anymore. The intent of the cardio finisher is simply some light active recovery. To get the blood flowing into your limbs and begin the process of flushing out the metabolic waste buildup. Do too much cardio and it will be catabolic – not good.
