Rep Guidelines
This is a quick and easy table you can use when programming your strength workouts. In comparison to previous version, this table is more streamlined and more simple, plus some Prilepin volume guidelines were added.

Movement Training in the MMA and Combat Sports
Since the early days of MMA, also known back then as NHB competitions, there has been an ongoing debate on whether certain things will work in the competition area of choice, be it the ring or the cage of some sort….
The Dowry Problem
In this video I am solving the famous dowry problem using the simulation in R. It is interesting to see how we can test the assumptions and heuristic easily with simulations.
Predicting Injuries Using Banister Model – The Addendum
A year ago I tried to use Banister model to predict injuries, but I recently realized I made an error implementing link function. So, I decided to do one more try and correct the problem.
Daily Undulating Framework (DUF)
After a long “battle” with Daily Undulating Periodization/Planning/Programming term, I decided to name it to DUF – Daily Undulating Framework, or just Undulating Framework (UF). The most recent video Planning and P…
Planning The In-season Microcycle In Soccer Part 8: Hamish Munro Case Study
The use of tactical periodisation to outlay the physical impetus for the in season micro cycle in football.
Planning the Strength Training – The Addendum
In year 2008 I wrote series of articles about Planning the Strength Training. Back then, my “philosophy” (or should I say model of reality?) was (and I believe still is) highly influenced by Mark Rippetoe’s books: …
Homoeostasis Performance Model
Homoeostasis Performance Model is a synthesis between Noakes’s Central Governor Model and Schmidt’s Conceptual Model of Human Performance. Some of the Bernstein’s conclusions about motor controler, who controls hum…
Testing and Training Agility in Sports – Part 4
Agility is defined as an independent motor skill. The previous studies lead to the conclusion that there is very little positive transfer between the straight line speed and agility (i.e. change of direction speed), whic…
More Advanced Daily Undulating Programming
In this video I am expanding on the idea of using multiple set and reps schemes across movement patterns under undulating umbrella. For example, how can we utilize undulating approach with the goal of developing hypertro…
