Build in blocks, peak for the day

Consistency beats the plan's shape. But the shape helps a little.

SWe reviewed 35 studies on it.Strength and muscle without a gym

How to use it

For a season: 4–6 weeks of strength and tendon work, 4–6 weeks of skill work, then a 1–2 week taper (less volume, same intensity). Be honest about the size: periodisation gives a small strength edge. Consistency matters more than the plan's shape.

How sure we are

S Evidence: strong. Large trials or many studies, pointing the same way.
