4. Spring Programming Review
We’re kicking off a new 7 week training cycle called Novus, running from April 6 – May 18. We’re dialing things back to basics so we can build a stronger foundation for the months ahead.
What to expect:
Strength: Slower, more controlled work (pauses, isometrics, positioning)
Olympic Lifting: Focus on technique and movement quality
Conditioning: Still challenging, with more longer, steady efforts
Goal: Move better, build strength, and set yourself up for long-term progress
We'll Kick Off:
We’ll kicked things off with a baseline workout: “Tick, Tick, Boom”
Strength builds progressively across the cycle and finishes with retesting in Week 7
Murph prep begins in the second half of the cycle
Expect a mix of intervals, endurance work, and classic functionalfitness workouts
Strength Tests:
We’ll track progress with the following lifts:
Weighted Strict Pull-Up – 1 Rep Max
Pause Strict Press – 3 Rep Max
Pause Front Squat – 1 Rep Max
Benchmark Workout:
“Tick, Tick, Boom”
3 Rounds for Time:
500/400m Row
20 American KB Swings
20 Lateral Burpees Over Rower
Rest 2 minutes between rounds
Note: This workout starts a longer progression and will be retested in a future cycle.
Big Picture: This is your chance , focus on quality, and rebuild strong movement patterns. Less racing, more intention.
