Y3T Program - Week 7


With week 6 out of the way it’s on to week 7, which is very similar to week 1 and 4 of the program as it’s a 3 week cycle with a few amendments.

So it’s back to heavier weights and high reps, targeting my 2B fast twitch muscle fibers. On the program you should be looking to increase your weights by 5%-10% from the first/fourth week, however only do this if you can handle the weight and maintain perfect form focusing on the muscles your targeting.
