Goal of sport population must align with either strength OR muscular endurance OR hypertrophy OR power. NOT toning or weight loss, NOT A BARBELL ATHLETE.

Program as if your lifter has access to a full gym, this is not the time for makeshift workouts. Use traditional barbell/dumbbell exercises

Lifts should include tempos, percentages, and rest times.
