Tip: Station 4

Aim to do as many reps as possible before you break up. Do not focus too much on the progression from week to week in this section. Focus more on the stimulus that you are getting in the present moment. Push as much as you are comfortable based on what you have left in the tank. The earlier portions of the training will progress in intensity and or volume throughout the six weeks, so as the cycle progresses, you may find yourself more fatigued by the time you get to the finisher.
