Lesson 1:WOLVERINE BEASTMODE TRAINING PHASE

How to Perform ANIMAL STRENGTH Workouts

With brute strength the name of the game in this initial phase of Wolverine: Beastmode, the focus is going to be on
using heavy weights and moving them as quickly as we can. Additionally, we will be concentrated on performing high
intensity QUALITY reps in lieu of QUANTITY! To do this we introduce the “Force Cluster” set (or FC25 as defined
for this phase). To perform the FC25’s, you will use 85-90% of your 1RM on a given exercise (feel free to use the
RM calculator in the NXT Tools section of your dashboard) with the goal of completing 25 Reps in as few sets as
needed. You move from one FC25 exercise to the next only when all 25 reps are completed. Between each failure
along the way to 25, you will rest up to 2 minutes to allow for enhanced strength recovery. After completing your
25 reps, perform the “negative-only” sets prescribed to failure. I stress again, while reps are low here, quality must
be high and these should all be some damn heavy and challenging reps!
