Description
Leavenworth is the 4th Plan in our notorious prison packet of plans for full-time Correctional Officers.
Leavenworth is a 7-week, 5 Day/week, balanced training cycle. This training plan concurrently trains total body strength, upper body hypertrophy, work capacity, grip strength, tactical agility, and Chassis Integrity (functional core strength).
Strength
Leavenworth’s strength work deploys MTI’s “TLU” strength progression methodology. “TLU” deploys a Total, Lower and Upper Body exercise each training session, and includes a 1RM (repetition maximum) effort for one exercise each day. Leavenworth trains strength two days per week, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Upper Body Hypertrophy
A large, muscular, upper body can be a deterrent for Correctional Officers. Leavenworth trains upper body hypertrophy (mass) two days per week.
Work Capacity
Leavenworth’s work capacity training is shuttle sprint based, using 150m shuttles and 300m shuttles. You’ll train work capacity twice per week.
Chassis Integrity
Leavenworth’s Chassis Integrity efforts deploy ARTE circuits. Each Chassis Integrity circuit deploys 4 exercises, one each of an anti-rotation, rotation, total and extension. You’ll train chassis integrity 2 times per week. These circuits are 15 minutes long.
Grip Strength
Leavenworth deploys a max effort farmer’s carry for time effort and follow-on progression to train grip strength and endurance.
Tactical Agility
Leavenworth deploys three of MTI’s tactical agility drills to train this fitness attribute. You’ll train these drills once per week.
