STOP CHANGING EXERCISES EVERY WEEK.

Your workouts don't need to be different every week to be effective.

One of the biggest mistakes in strength training is confusing variety with progress.

Constantly changing exercises can make it harder to measure whether you're actually getting stronger.

Progressive overload isn't just about lifting heavier weights. It can also mean more repetitions, better technique, improved range of motion or greater control.

That's why a structured programme should give you opportunities to repeat movements, track performance and make meaningful improvements over time.

Of course, exercise variation has its place. But changes should have a purpose, not simply be made for the sake of variety.

Repeat. Measure. Progress.

Train with purpose, not just for variety.

A huge well done to Laura on completing the 2026 AJ Bell Great South Run in 2:14:57.

A short illness affected two weeks of the training plan, so we adjusted and built back sensibly.
Laura increased her long run from 5 to 6.5 miles, 30% further, while maintaining a very similar pace and effort. She then completed the full 10 miles on race day, 3.5 miles beyond her longest training run.

She also continued building her strength alongside her running.

A brilliant achievement, Laura. You should be really proud! πŸ˜€

DEKA MILE BUILD β€” WEEK 3 βœ…

Another solid week of training banked.

3 weeks into the block.
6 days training each week.
18 sessions completed.
6 weeks until race day.

The focus isn't on going hard every day.

The week is structured around a mix of strength, running, DEKA-specific conditioning and lower-intensity aerobic work
with easier sessions there to build the aerobic base and support recovery between the harder days.

This week:

πŸ‹οΈ 2 full-body strength sessions
πŸƒ 60 min Zone 2 run
⚑ 7 Γ— 200m running intervals
🚣 50 min easy aerobic machine work
πŸ”₯ DEKA-specific 2-round session
😴 Sunday complete rest

Strength continues to progress, aerobic fitness is staying consistent and this week's 200m intervals averaged 37.6 seconds.

The final couple of intervals were tough, with power starting to drop.
So no automatic progression.
7 reps stays until I can control all 7.

EARN THE RIGHT TO PROGRESS.

Finished Week 3 with another strong DEKA-specific session, 2 rounds, 2.8km of running and just 1 minute recovery between rounds.

3 weeks.
18 sessions.
Hard days hard.
Easy days easy.
Recovery part of the plan.

6 weeks to race day.

Keep building. πŸ‘Š
