This is now your Base Power Program. Good form is important to reduce the chance of injury.<br />

I practice quite often on my ‘off’ days doing up to 150 reps with a much lighter weight to get<br />

the feel of an exercise. This ensures proper form when the heavier weights are used. Once you<br />

are able to perform the above workout getting 7-8 reps for ALL 4 Work Sets, take away one<br />

Pre-Fatigue Set and add one more Work Set for the next workout. Do this until you can get<br />

full 8 AMRAP reps for all 5 Work Sets in 30 seconds. Now reduce to 2 Pre-Fatigue Sets and go<br />

to 6 Work Sets until 8 reps is reached again, then pat yourself on the back and begin over with<br />

the Base Program. This round of Pre-Fatigue Sets will be the weight you used in the previous<br />

Work Sets but for 4 sets of 10 and the Work Sets will add 5 pounds. Look how far you’ve come!<br />

Give these club training exercises a try in your next workout. Develop the bit of skill needed to<br />

build a solid foundation, then adapt the exercise as you progress to challenge yourself.<br />

Keep it interesting and reap the benefits of solid full ROM body power, you won’t be<br />

disappointed!<br />
