Program logic

Volume
Low to moderate. Optimized for sustainable performance, quality recovery and consistent training without unnecessary overload.
Frequency
3× a week (full body). Frequent stimulation of every major muscle group, with frequency and quality of execution put ahead of total volume.
Progression
Gradual and controlled. Load goes up only once proper technique and consistent, repeatable execution are in place.
