The Tuesday session the team are doing is a tough hills session. It’s a risk, as probably the most demanding session we do, hence why I have set something different and lighter again this week. We’ve got 128pts on the table, which is getting serious now, so hopefully everything feels ok and if we keep hitting weeks like this you will make some serious gains. Keep smashing it Dan.

A good home workout for the legs. No weights needed, but if you do have some that will add to the difficulty. Recoveries around 30-60s. If time is limited then combined two exercises together. So whilst recovering from squats for example you could be doing your calf raises. This could save you as much as 15 mins.
