Getting ready for a stage takes weeks of tight control. Miguel puts the same care into your plan.

03 · Protocol

The method. 12 weeks

There are four phases. Each has its own goal, and you only move on once you've met the criterion for the one you're in. Drag through the weeks on the load map to see the numbers change.

  1. Weeks 1 to 3

    Base

    Full assessment, technique on the basic lifts, and habits (sleep, steps, protein).

  2. Weeks 4 to 6

    Build

    Volume goes up every week. Macros are set to the gram and adjusted from your check-ins.

  3. Weeks 7 to 9

    Intensification

    Heavy strength work on the main lifts plus metabolic conditioning. This is usually where the numbers move most.

  4. Weeks 10 to 12

    Peak

    Fine-tune, deload, then test. You finish with a maintenance plan written for you.

Forja, the coach's side

On Miguel's side there's Forja, with every client's sessions and alerts. A missed check-in or a sore knee shows up there instead of waiting for the next appointment.
