Capacity Code: Week 2 Program
Week 2 Program
Important Notes:
The goal from last week is to either : add more weight or use the same weight and increase the reps. Once you reach the top end of the rep scheme, increase the weight.
Each set should be taken to failure.
If there isn’t a given rest, rest as long as you need.
When working towards a top set. Perform warm up sets of 5 building to the weight that you will use for the set.
A superset means you perform both movements back to back without resting between them!
