Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this Rapid Fire Q&A, the KILO Crew zooms out to big picture program design. We cover how to plan mesocycles in the context of a macrocycle, why intensity drives quality selection, and where parallel periodization actually fits. You will hear when to use phase undulating models, how to prevent interference, and how to balance variation with mastery so progress does not stall.00:00 Welcome & Introduction 00:19 Designing a Mesocycle: Strength Qualities & Overlap 01:38 Macro vs. Mesocycle Context 06:09 Methods vs. Macrocycle Planning 08:11 Intensity Drives Stimulus & Volume 09:20 Preventing Overlap in Training 10:01 Undulating vs. Standard Periodization 11:12 Adaptation & Variation for Advanced Trainees 12:17 Progression vs. Variation in the A Series 12:57 Novice vs. Experienced Athletes: Repetition vs. Variation 15:04 GPP to SPP: Building Robustness 15:54 B Series Progression & Strength Ratios 17:08 Addressing Weak Links & Mobility 20:25 Addressing Imbalances in Training 23:38 Parallel vs. Phase Undulating Periodization 25:37 Emphasis & Sequential Models 31:04 Reintroducing Eccentric/Isometric Methods After Layoff 33:13 Assessing Readiness 35:15 Interconnectedness of Hypertrophy & Strength 36:07 When to Switch Strength Qualities 37:01 Inconsistent Clients & Periodization 37:44 Parallel Model for Inconsistent or Low-Frequency Trainees 39:34 Adapting Plans to Life Circumstances 40:23 The Importance of Having a Plan 41:47 Mike Tyson Quote & Episode Wrap-UpStay Connected with KILO:Have Questions?
