Description

In this episode of the Everyday Strength Podcast, Anthony breaks down his 5-step framework for writing a training program.


The discussion covers:

  • How to decide on a training split that matches your schedule and recovery ability
  • Choosing between linear, block, and conjugate systems depending on your context
  • Applying proven methods like max effort, dynamic effort, repetition effort, and conditioning progressions
  • Setting the details (sets, reps, rest periods, loading schemes) without overcomplicating the process
  • Using feedback and iteration to adjust programming and ensure consistent progress


This episode provides a clear system you can use to plan training with more intention, recover better, and evaluate whether your approach is moving you toward your goals.
