042 : 004 Quest For The Hyper Trophy S5E1

The lesson of the week: overcooking. This is different from intentional overreaching, although it can be turned into that. I’m talking about perhaps too many “good ideas” happening inside of a week. If it hasn’t happened to you, I suggest trying this entire week day by day, knowing what it feels like, and trying to discern which aspects are worth replicating and which parts become a problem. Our combination of strength endurance days chased by capacity days with mirrored movement patterns is a cool one that I will keep exploring. But in some aspects we have kind of run off the edge with it, meaning that a lot of people were trashed enough from the first 2 days that we didn’t see them for the rest of the week. These are two separate sessions. Let’s get to the week:
