Strength training is under week 8, Extra Credit is under Strength Training, but the whole 8 week workout regimen is intact if you just get it all at once.

Why does this website ask me on every page if I want to subscribe? I'M ALREADY A SUBSCRIBER!

Ditto above, six months later. Looks like an excellent training plan, but the still broken links are frustrating.

Someone needs to check the links, week 1 is week 2, week 2 is week 3 , Etc.
Extra credit is not there and strength training doesn't show up in it's link either.
Thanks
