Maximum Strength ~ Week 1 of 16

by Lia Halsall

It’s almost the end of my first week of my Maximum Strength Training Program which I’m doing for the next 16 weeks.

Team Halsall has teamed up for this year to finish off the job of tidying up our physiques once and for all. Our health has to come first so we’re placed our health and fitness as our highest priority this year and every year thereafter, more importantly.

We know we have a lot of hard work ahead of us but that’s all a part of the process. Nothing worth having in life ever came easy. But we know that once we achieve our health and fitness goals that the worst is behind us. Life is what it is and we’re just looking forward and focussing on the positive aspects of it. This is going to be a great year for health and fitness for us. What more could we want out of life. If we have that, then we’re wealthier than the wealthiest. So it’s onwards and upwards from here on.

Packing Day was Saturday. It’s basically a test we conduct at the very beginning consisting of:

1. 1RM Broad Jump

2. 1RM Box Squat

3. 1RM Bench Press

4. 1RM Deadlift

5. 1RM Three-Rep Max Chin-Up

Then at the end of this training program we conduct Moving Day and do the test all over again comparing the results. This way we’ll be able to gauge the power and strength gains over the 16 Weeks.

Next week I’ll start posting more about what I’m doing for my warm up, training program and my cool down.

Until then, train hard! Because you know you want too. ;)
