Part 1: Linear Periodisation

Linear Periodisation is the classic strength-training blueprint, simple, structured, and remarkably effective. Built on the foundation of progressive overload, it steadily increases training stress week by week, guiding you toward predictable strength gains without unnecessary complexity. In Part 1, we explore the different forms of Linear Periodisation, including Weekly LP, Monthly LP, Wave Loading, and Step Loading, and show how each offers a clear and purposeful path toward long-term progress. If you value structure, enjoy seeing measurable improvement, and want a training plan grounded in proven scientific principles, Linear Periodisation is your roadmap for getting strong.

Train Your Energy Systems Like a Pro

Ready to build unstoppable stamina, speed, and strength? In this guide, we break down how to train your body's energy systems—aerobic for endurance, VO2 max for power, and anaerobic for explosive effort—to work smarter, harder, and longer. Whether you’re crushing runs, rowing sessions, or SkiErg sprints, we’ve got the workouts and tips to help you level up your fitness, supercharge your mitochondria, and dominate any challenge.

In this first part of our three-part series, we dive into the science of your body’s energy systems—the ATP-PC, Glycolytic, and Aerobic systems. Like a high-performance vehicle with different fuel modes, each system powers you through varying levels of intensity, from short, explosive bursts to steady endurance. Understanding how your body switches gears and fuels itself can help you train smarter, boost performance, and maximise endurance. Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll explore strategies to optimize these energy systems for your workouts.
