Explosion QuirkDetonation Protocol5 days/wk
Physique

Explosive striker — fast-twitch dominant

Lore Context

Every output is a detonation. Translation: short, brutal anaerobic work — plyometric emphasis, max-velocity pressing, and conditioning capped at lung-burn intensity. Volume is the enemy of explosiveness.
