First I want to tell you that all of your plans seem very engineered and seem to be on point when it comes to the outcome that is targeted by each individual plan. I still have a question though and that ist as follows.
I have a selection for a particular unit of the police coming in May.
The selection consists of a very intense parcours which is about 450 meters (a quarter of a mile) long and should take about 2,5 to 3 minutes.
It consists of sprints and 29 obstacles (ladders, ropes, jumping,
Unfortunately, I have not found a training plan on your website that targets this specific goal. I do have access to it. My question now is if you could tell me which one of your plans fits my demandings the best or if there is no such plan, would you create one when I sign up fir your membership?

Love the work that you do, love MTN, best thing out there I think. So, my wife is struggling a bit to find a workout regimen that is helpful to her. She works as an accountant and during high peak seasons (Feb to April, July to Sept) can only get to the gym about 3 times a week. What plan would you recommend? She is most concerned these days about how her legs are conditioned, but I always remind to her to not forget her upper body conditioning as well. I recommended to her the Big 3 + Run, but she saw that it was a 6 times a week program, what plan do you recommend for her? Looking forward to your response. I’d say cardio wise she’s very fit, can run and swim with anyone in her age group with ease. She is 30 years old. She has good knowledge grasp around the gym, is familiar with other MTN plans (hypertrophy, push up improvement). She struggles with strength, she can do about ten pushups (chest to deck with good form), close to squatting her body weight, knows how to deadlift, bench, etc. She definitely uses the videos you all have, very helpful! Hopefully that helps. Happy Friday brother!

QUESTION
I am into your mountain base program (Helen). So, here my questions/recommendations so far.
– part of the program requires running. I am in a winter climate (Colorado), and running is quite difficult and often impossible. Part of my intent was to have a strong indoor program for the winter months. I get out there to ski, etc. But in lieu of running, I am using a rower/in door bike for cardio. Can you develop goals/metrics for alternate cardio? In the summer, I will be running mountain trails, and won’t have as much time to be in the gym, so this program can be seasonal. Indoor PT in winter months and more outdoor in summer months. Or do you have a program like that?
– in the App, once you’ve established your 1 RM, it should auto calculate the weights for you for the following weeks. Yes, I can do math, but during a workout, sometimes I have to refer back to the 1RM and then do the math. It would be nice to just have the designated weight auto-populate. A more user friendly app.

I just started the busy operator 1 program. I am looking to add in some rowing during the rest days to keep me moving and keep my stress levels down. Will this negatively impact the strength progression of the program? Or should I use the days off to foam roll and stretch?
