## Program Details

**Performance program for finger rehab returns (Returning to previous level)**

Returning from pulley injury? Progressive loading protocol to safely rebuild finger strength and confidence

Peak performance period for projects and redpoint attempts. Minimal volume, maximum quality.

This 4-week mesocycle follows the Carlos V3 3+1 pattern: three progressive loading weeks followed by a deload week.

## Program Details

**Training Frequency**: 2 sessions/week
**Session Duration**: 60 minutes
**Weekly Volume**: ~163 moves at full (100%) volume — each week below scales this target

## Week 1 — Introduction (80% volume)

*Learn the exercises, establish movement patterns, dial intensity.*

**Weekly volume target**: ~130 moves (80% of full volume). Start at the **bottom end** of each prescribed set/rep range while you learn the exercises and dial in the intensities.

### Monday

- 15-20min easy climbing
- Intensity: 40%

## Week 2 — Build (100% volume)

*Full prescribed volume.*

**Weekly volume target**: ~163 moves.

Repeat the Week 1 sessions (Monday, Thursday) — same exercises, same intensities — now at the **full prescribed volume**: use the complete set/rep ranges exactly as written above.

## Week 3 — Peak (110% volume)

*Increase volume or intensity.*

**Weekly volume target**: ~179 moves (+10% over Week 2).

Same sessions (Monday, Thursday), same exercises and intensities as Week 1. Push volume to the **top end** of each prescribed set/rep range to add roughly 10% over Week 2. Warm-up stays unscaled.

## Week 4 — Deload (60% volume)

*Reduce volume, maintain intensity, recover.*

**Weekly volume target**: ~98 moves (deload).

Deload week. Same sessions (Monday, Thursday) at the **same intensities**, but cut total volume to ~60%: drop to the **bottom end** of each set/rep range and finish each session early. Recovery is the goal — do not add work. Warm-up stays unscaled.

## Key Principles

- Follow CNS-demand ordering: HIGH → MEDIUM → LOW within each session
- Maintain proper rest periods between sets and exercises
- Volume follows the 3+1 week pattern (80% → 100% → 110% → 60%)
- Listen to your body and adjust if experiencing pain or excessive fatigue
