Hey everyone,
I've been a huge fan of DC and Fortitude Training, read the book multiple times, and used Fortitude for 8 months from 2021-2022.
To me, the logic behind high frequency and moderate/low volume just makes sense.
For the past year, I've been working with a coach that uses Rennaissance Periodization principles. Quick idea of what that looks like:
PPL, 6x week
5 Week Phases w/ 1 Week Deload
Increase 1 set of each exercise each week (only on exercises that can handle additional work)
Reducing RIR each week until final weeks, everything is 0RIR, 3-4 sets per exercises per session.
I've grown the most using this style of programming, but I loved fortitude when I used it.
So, Scott, I was wondering if you could help me understand, why I saw more growth RP style programming, and how can I take what I learned from this style of programming, and integrate it into fortitude?
Perhaps I misunderstood FT and how to work through the Tiers Effectively?
My last question is;
I wasn't a fan of the supersets on Day 1. Again, maybe I misunderstood the book, but is there a way to break up the workload so I don't have to superset?
Looking forward to your answers!
