Should you Strength Bias or Conditioning Bias your Offseason program?: Offseason Block 2 - E.401
Offseason Block 2 starts Monday, June 9.
In this special programming deep dive, Drew and Paige break down the structure, intent, and athlete decision-making behind the second offseason phase of the year. The focus is on helping athletes choose between a strength bias, conditioning bias, or hybrid approach based on their current weaknesses, goals, and training history.
Topics include:

- Why Offseason Block 2 is the time to stop avoiding weaknesses
- The return of Texas Method back squats and how to approach them
- Tempo squat snatches and squat cleans for technical development
- Heavy strict press and push press progressions
- Speed deadlifts and power cleans for force production
- The role of intervals, MetCons, build work, and aerobic training
- Why Zone 2 running remains one of the most effective conditioning tools
- How to manage training volume and recovery throughout the offseason
- Accessory work selection, including carries, ring dips, lunges, sled work, and pulling development
- The importance of movement quality over ego-driven loading
