Periodization and load management
Cycles and loads written before the first session.
For people who already follow a plan and want an outside reading of how they are executing it, not a second programme stacked on top.
| Scope | fixed or ongoing |
|---|---|
| Deliverable | findings and agreed changes |
| Works with | the plan you already follow |
I read what you are already doing, go through how you decide session order and execution, and report where the plan and the practice have drifted apart.
A fixed scope for a single read, or an ongoing arrangement across a season if you want it repeated.
People who follow their plan but want a second opinion on how they are executing it.
Cycles and loads written before the first session.
A document you keep, not a feed of sessions.
Training that develops strength and endurance inside the same programme rather than in separate seasons. It is what the market usually calls hybrid training. The work is in sequencing the two so that each keeps progressing and neither is quietly sacrificed.
Not by itself. The interference effect is real but its size depends on the modality, the proximity of the sessions and the total load. Adaptations compete when sessions are placed badly, the load exceeds the recovery available, or the phase has no stated priority. All three are planning problems.
A template cannot know your training history, your week, your equipment or your injuries, and it cannot change its mind when the block does not go as written. If a generic plan is still producing progress, keep following it. Planning earns its fee at the point where it stops.
The log is read before every scheduled review, against the plan it was supposed to follow, and the amendment is written with the reason for it. That is the whole service. There is no automatic progression that runs regardless of what happened.
Small corrections happen at the review cadence we agree at the start, usually fortnightly or monthly, and larger changes whenever your response to the training says they are needed.
If the question is specific to your situation, it is faster to ask it directly than to look for it here. Describe the goal and the week you have.
Describe your goal, your horizon and the week you actually have. I reply with whether I am the right fit and what a proposal would cover.
I read every enquiry myself. You get a straight answer about whether I am the right fit, and if so, a written proposal with the scope, the fee and the schedule for your plan.
Nothing is charged through this website, and there is no account to create. If I am not the right fit I will say so and, where I can, point you somewhere better.
