FAQ
FAQ
Can I move sessions around to fit my schedule?
Yes - keep the order of training days but swap which calendar day they land on. Avoid stacking the two hardest sessions back-to-back.
What if I miss a workout?
Slide the week back by one day rather than doubling up. Recovery is the variable that creates progress.
