**USS Nationals 8-Week Peak Program — Built to Win. **

*Are you ready to dominate the USS National Stage on June 28, 2025 in North Carolina? *

This is your 8-week roadmap to peak performance — strategically engineered to get you stronger, faster, and more dialed-in across all five events: Yoke. Log Press. Frame Carry. Frame Deadlift. Sandbag Throws.

Every rep, every set, every week of this program is designed to push your baseline strength up, while tapering and progressing in a way that ensures you arrive fresh, explosive, and unbreakable on meet day.

💥 Event-specific training that balances intensity and recovery 💥 Intelligent progressions and built-in deloads to keep you primed, not fried 💥 Mobility warm-ups that keep you moving well and reduce injury risk 💥 Conditioning baked into the structure — because 60 seconds never felt so long without it

Here’s the deal: You can get this full peak program for $100, or... Join THE STRONGMAN CLUB for just $19/month and get this program included, plus access to: ✅ Private coaching calls with elite pros ✅ A community of competitors just like you ✅ Training critiques, giveaways, and exclusive content

This is your shot to train smarter, recover better, and walk into Nationals like the storm you are. You don’t rise to the occasion — you fall to the level of your training.

Train like it’s the biggest meet of your life — because it is.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT
Most programs fry athlete's nervous systems with too much heavy yoke work - This program balances the demands of pushing heavy for a winning yoke time while maintaining speed, power, and strength on all other lifts (Take it from me - I won the yoke at USS Nationals 2024)
