This week, Mike shifts from a power-dominant plan to a force-dominated one.  In the next 4 weeks, you'll see his lifts change from nonspecific to specific, and he'll get shorter workouts that will primarily exhaust his nervous system.
Two exceptions: the bench press and deadlift, because he'll be tested on them.
Mike's preliminary testing (done last Friday) indicated that his bodyfat had dropped 4%, which is a big deal.  He also hit a PR on the chinup and both jumps, and we haven't really done work to address either yet, just built the base.  We're excited to see what he can do after the next 4 weeks.  Stay tuned!
