There are two main reasons why athletes miss training (or stop completely).
- You’re injured.
- You don’t have time.
If you meet either of these criteria, the most recent Peak Strength update has you in mind.
We’ve implemented numerous new training plans to make sure you are able to train no matter what.
Injury Recovery Training Plans

For over a year, athletes have been asking how to adjust their training plans in the case of injuries or pain. We have good news!.
Peak Strength now introduces SIX new training plans to help you get back to a normal training schedule. These injury recovery plans address the most common injuries across sports and training. We will continue to build this out to address additional recovery options. (So keep those requests coming!)
Ankle/Foot Recovery: Avoids or lightly uses the ankles and feet
General Recovery: Very light full body strength and recovery
Knee Recovery: Avoids or lightly uses the knees
Lower Back Recovery: Avoids or lightly uses the lower back
Shoulder Recovery: Avoids or lightly uses the shoulders
Wrist/Hand Recovery: Avoids or lightly uses the wrists and hands
The training plans focus on reducing total training volume, maximizing recovery, and avoiding exercise that stresses the injured area.
Athletic Fitness Time Crunch
Now, if you’re struggling to make time to train, try the athletic fitness time crunch training plan. Because progress isn’t linear – every small effort adds up. Even if it’s just 30 minutes!

This training plan gives you the essentials so you can make the most out of the time you have to train. Plus, on days that you have a little extra time, you can quickly add a bonus workout to maximize your gains.
