CMS, MS, & MSIC (4-day programs) / How to taper for a minor meet mid-cycle
« on: May 12, 2015, 11:45:53 AM »
Hello all,
I am currently on week 4 of Prep 2 in the 20 week, 4 day program. The full cycle is aimed at peaking for a major meet in August but I have a minor meet a the end of this block (after week 6 Prep 2) where I will only be aiming to express 90-95% of my true total.
I will complete weeks 4 and 5 as written but the question is: For week 6 can I just cut out days 3&4, drop all accessories and reduce the volume slightly on days 1 & 2 to achieve my goal or should I use the final week from the Competition block as a template for that week?
I know that in the long run with the aims I have it probably won't matter either way but I would still like to hear opinions.
Thank you
