This program is designed to aid experienced lifters in significantly improving overall strength. This is done by using specific modifications to acute variables such as sets, reps, and volume. The Advanced Strength Program uses traditional strength training coupled with periodization to encourage growth in muscle size and force production. Weeks 1 and 2 are focused more on Hypertrophy, weeks 3 and 4 are deeply rooted in strength. Hypertrophy training is needed to help improve strength as it specifically promotes muscle growth. This growth leads to increased for producing potential by an increased size and number of muscle fibers available for contraction. This type of training is perfect for your goal of [Fill in goal details: Bench Press my body weight for 5 reps, squat my body weight x 1.5 for 5 reps] INTRODUCTION How it Works In order to give you the direction, accountability and support you need, there are a couple different facets to this program.

Processed foods are not optimal for health and would be categorized as anything altered from its original state in nature, or if it doesn’t exist in nature, it is obviously processed from other food sources. To give wiggle room we will apply an 80-20 rule (eat well 80% of the time) as it tends to be the easiest and most sustainable way for most people to eat well and achieve their fitness goals. The way I further define the 80-20 rule would be that you eat as clean as possible from Sunday evening to Friday lunch and stray a little bit on the weekends (but always avoid grains and grain products) due to social events (boozing) and eating out (typically lower quality food). NUTRITION PLAN GUIDELINES When you eat the right foods and then combine it with the correct amount of food, you become a result achieving machine. Let’s determine the right amount of food by using the formula below. [PRE CALCULATE THIS FOR YOUR CLIENTS] Calculate your TDEE: MEN TDEE (in kcal) = 66 + (6.2 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) – (6.76 x age in years) x 1.2 WOMEN TDEE (in kcal) = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) – (4.7 x age in years) x 1.2 EXAMPLE: Male: 66 + (6.2 x 152lbs) + (12.7 x 68inches) – (6.76 x 30 years old) x 1.2 = 66 + (942.4) + (863.6) – (202.8) x 1.2 66 + 1603.2 x 1.2 1669.2 x 1.2 = 2003kcal NUTRITION PLAN GUIDELINES FOR MUSCLE TONING GOALS TDEE + 300kcal = Total kcal/day Example: 2000 TDEE + 300 = 2300 kcal/day FOR A BODY FAT LOSS GOAL TDEE – 300 kcal = Total kcal/day Example: 2000 TDEE - 300 = 1700 kcal/day FINAL THOUGHT Don’t blow your good week of eating by going crazy on the weekends and eating pizza, cake, cookies and candy. It’s best to minimize damage to the best of your ability, which in turn promotes the achievement of your fitness goals. Small amounts of booze, dairy and legumes can be permitted on the weekends, but don’t indulge often in non-recommended foods. SUPPLEMENTS WHEY PROTEIN SHAKE Whey can help you increase the amount of protein you get in your diet. If you need a quick snack after a workout this can be a good option. Limit to only on the days you workout and always choose food protein sources over whey when available. ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS An Omega 3 Fish Oil supplement can be a great way to ensure your intake of one of the most important essential fatty acids. Omega 3 has been proven to enhance heart health, improve brain function and increase fat loss. MULTIVITAMIN Ensuring you have adequate consumption of all vitamins and minerals can be done through a basic multivitamin.

REST AND RECOVERY LISTEN TO YOUR BODY •Getting 8+ hours of sleep per night is crucial when trying to increase strength. You will be working out more than you're body is accustomed to. Getting adequate rest can make or break how well you recover. •The brain and body need time to recover from the constant stimulus received throughout the day. When we have adequate sleep/rest we improve our metabolic expenditure, recover from workouts faster, and are more alert throughout the day. •If something ever hurts or is sore after exercise, especially around the joints, use ice to reduce inflammation and/or swelling.
