This document outlines a 4-week strength training program with 5 sessions per week. Each session focuses on either upper or lower body strength and includes exercises like squats, lunges, presses, and pull-ups. Exercises are done in circuits and loads are progressively increased each round. Rest periods and stretches are also incorporated. Loading is prescribed as a percentage of the maximum weight lifted in previous similar sessions to ensure appropriate progression over time.
