3 Week Changes
by Jud Logan
In 1992, preparing to make my third Olympic Team in the hammer throw, I sought the help of ""Strength Guru"", Charles Poliquin. Until this time the shortest training cycle I had ever done was 6 wks. and some lasting 12 wks. before changing. He switched me over to 3 wk. cycles of M-TH Pulls/Squats and T-F, Upper body.
I never stagnated, and in one particular 21 wk. period, I increased my Power Clean from a previous best of of 404, to 440. That was 7/ 3 wk. blocks of varying Pulls, Squats, Tempo's, Range of Motions, Rest periods and Rep Schemes. More later, on ways to increase "YOUR" Power Clean - From the floor in a high catch position.
