Hi everyone,
I have a question that I have yet to find a good answer and I apologize if this topic has already been addressed elsewhere (I wasn't able to find it).
Imagine you are running the ETK program according to the book with a 3 sessions a week plan.
Now imagine that your work sometimes does not allow for 3 sessions a week, some weeks you might be left only with 2 days to practice or, at worst, only 1.
How would you factor that into the plan?
Would you rank "session priority" according to heavy - medium - light and choose the heavy day in those weeks where there was only 1 practice day available, heavy and medium in weeks with 2 available days and so on? If not, what would your criteria be?
I reckon that during these weeks it would make no sense to even think of increasing the load (whether we were talking reps, sets or even kg).
The question here is really how to adjust to life's constraints in the best possible way (most productive)?
I had no such issue when I ran S&S because of it's simplicity in planning.
Thanks in advance for any input you might provide.
