OFF SEASON TRAINING / FORWARDS

Week 6 · Posterior Chain & Single-Leg

Hamstrings, glutes and the back of the hip — the tissue that extends the stride and the tissue that tears when it is undertrained. Heavy hinge first, then the single-leg and eccentric work that keeps it healthy. The heaviest week of the block. Two hard, clean sets beat five sloppy ones — leave the ego at the door.
