  • Kyle Aaron Said:
To that I would I only add the clarification: choose one of squat or deadlift. Doing both doesn't work - you could do some of either movement at 60% or under to maintain the movement pattern, but you won't get stronger on that one. You have to choose between the two. But it's only for several weeks.




My tweaks to Kyle’s ES version:

- Crawl for 5-10 minutes (EASY pace). Mix and match crawls.

- One lower body lift (*): 60% weeks 1-2, 70% weeks 3-4, 80% weeks 5-6.

(*) Switch back and forth every other cycle between deep knee bend and hinge exercises.

- One upper body push: 70% weeks 1-2,, 80% weeks 3-4, 60% weeks 5-6.

- One upper body pull: 80% weeks 1-2, 60% weeks 3-4, 70% weeks 5-6.

- Carry for 5-10 minutes (EASY pace). Mix and match carries.

And, maybe, just maybe, find a Training Max and base all your percentages on it, in order to keep things REALLY easy.


"I think we often spend too much time focusing on max fitness
and not nearly enough on maintaining our minimums.
It seems we need to think sustainable rather than obtainable.
Meaning whatever we do today, we can do it again tomorrow.
Never taking so much from ourselves that we can't."
