LEARN TO<br />

PROGRAM<br />

One of the biggest mistakes an athlete<br />

can make is to train without a program.<br />

It’s like going to find an address in an<br />

unfamiliar place without directions.<br />

Think of a program as a map to<br />

success. Programs have purpose; for<br />

example, if your goal is to build muscle,<br />

you could then implement a progressive<br />

overload training program on the<br />

offseason.<br />

PRO TIP<br />

TAKE A BREAK NOT A KIT-KAT<br />

Not incorporating a rest day into your regime can lead to<br />

overtraining which has a number of pitfalls including halted<br />

muscle growth, altered sleep patterns and a decreased libido<br />

to name a few. Yes, we know you want to hit the gym hard<br />

to smash out results, but unfortunately, this is not<br />

how muscle building or weight loss works.<br />

Rather take a day or two off every week, let your muscles<br />

recover and have some fun with family and friends.<br />
