Pancake Power
Active, loaded & PNF pancake progression — three phases of true overload.
The strength-and-progression counterpart to Pancake Path. Twelve sessions across three phases — Foundation, Build, Peak — that add active good-mornings, straddle leg lifts and hovers, an isometric horse stance, and a contract-relax PNF drill on top of the deep stretches. Each phase raises the active work, the PNF rounds, and the goal-hold depth. Default cadence is every other day so the deep work gets a recovery day between sessions.
