STRENGTH CLASS
Strength Class: Our strength program follows a linear 3-month progressive plan to improve your overall strength. Although it requires a basic understanding of barbell usage, the class is designed to accommodate individuals of varying skill levels. For those who are new to barbell training or need a refresher, we offer a 101 strength class to help you grasp the fundamentals.
We understand that TTL’s approach may differ from what you’ve encountered elsewhere. Our ultimate goal is to help you cultivate confidence and empowerment. With time, not only will you become stronger and feel better, but you will also gain a deeper understanding of your own capabilities. All we ask is for your effort and dedication
TRAINING DAY
Training Day Class: At TTL, we don’t settle for mere exercise—we train. Our Training Day classes consist of two key segments: Block training and the movement of the day.
In our carefully crafted 3-block training system, we target the body’s three main energy systems to ensure consistent improvement. This approach changes every 4 weeks, offering a dynamic and progressive training experience.
Block 1 focuses on the aerobic system, incorporating longer intervals performed at a perceived effort level of 70-75%. With minimal rest intervals, this block helps develop cardiovascular endurance, enhancing your overall stamina.
Block 2 shifts the effort level to 80-85% and features shorter intervals with a 1:1 rest-to-work ratio. By emphasizing anaerobic capacity, this block is designed to enhance your ability to engage in short, intense bursts of physical activity, such as sprinting, lifting, and HIIT.
Block 3 takes things up a notch, demanding 100% effort during even shorter intervals with a 2:1 rest-to-work ratio. By improving anaerobic threshold, this block allows you to sustain high exercise intensity for under 30 seconds. Notably, the progress you make in this block positively impacts your performance in all other blocks.
The movement of the day is the other crucial component of our class. We focus on exercises like Squats, Overhead Press, Pull Ups, Deadlifts, and Bench, which rotate every 4 weeks. This portion is designed to develop proper movement patterns and enhance muscular endurance. We prioritize barbell work during this segment, as we believe it is an excellent way to build foundational strength. Barbell exercises are compound movements that engage multiple muscle groups simultaneously, promoting overall functional strength.
