Tip: Strength Intensity 2 Progression

In this training section, you have explored three variations of single-leg work. We are now going back to week 1 to improve upon that stimulus. To improve upon this stimulus, increase the weight based on how week 1 weights felt. If you got a great stimulus from week 1, increase the weight by a small amount of 2%; if the week 1 stimulus was pretty mild, increase it by 5%.
