The 3.5.9 Protocol methodology for strength-training

The 3•5•9 Protocol adheres to the training regimen as follows:

  • 3 reps at a heavy weight/greater difficulty/most challenging movement. This is the power component, then immediately into,
  • 5 reps at a medium weight or a medium difficulty. This is the strength component, then immediately into,
  • 9 reps at a lighter weight or a much less difficulty. This is the speed component.

One “round” is a whole 3•5•9 sequence and gets performed 3-5 times per exercise.

For further reading on the approach, read this.

The exercise movements in The Protocol need to be confident, quick, controlled, stable & fluid, and worked within a pain-free range of motion.

Additionally, your balance, coordination and agility will improve with your training. Just stay consistent!
