A common question is how to use the additional WPx accessory tracks with an athlete’s current training.
WPx accessory programming is available 3 days a week, scheduled for M-W-F, but you can adjust it to fit your schedule. You can jump into the accessory programming at any time without needing to start from a specific date.
Accessory tracks can be completed anytime throughout your day or week and are designed to complement any daily program you are currently following.
If you’re following a WP Main Track, like WP Compete or WP Masters, we suggest following the main programming for a week or two to ensure you have the time and are recovering well before adding in the accessory tracks.
