Getting The Most From Off-Season Powerlifting Training


Written by

Chad Wesley Smith takes you through some of his Bridge Block training on the JuggernautAI App. The Bridge Block, a program Chad first wrote for his own off-season training in 2014 and then brought to many athletes in his book A Thoughtful Pursuit of Strength (2016), serves to avoid adaptive resistance, increase work capacity and create a broader base of fitness either as an introductory block to training or going from one meet training cycle to another.
