In the upcoming sports off-season I'll be taking my time to do more less specific work that has a good carry over to my sport. In this off-season I want to gain as much strenght as I can.
In the competition season, I pretty much know the training volume I can handle since I've been doing that for a really long time. But every year I struggle to make the progression I need for the next year. The major question for me is: How much volume can I handle? (MRV)
My first week would look like this:
Monday
Exercise 1: 4x12
Exercise 2: 4x12
Exercise 3: 3x Strenghtserie assisted by coach
Wednesday:
Exercise 1: 4x10
Exercise 2: 4x10
Exercise 3: 3x Strenghtserie assisted by coach
Friday:
Exercise 1: 4x8
Exercise 2: 4x8
Exercise 3: 3x Strenghtserie assisted by coach
Sunday:
Exercise 1:3x Strenghtserie assisted by coach
Is this a decent point to start at? If I progress slowly I can start adding sets for each exercise or some accessory work right, but until what point is this beneficial? As the weeks go by I'll turn up the intensity and try to auto-regulate, any advice on this?
