About the Program:

This program is built around a High Intensity Cluster Set model designed to maximize muscle growth, strength gains, and athletic performance. Every workout focuses on a number of heavy, high effort sets using compound lifts and key accessory movements. The goal is simple - train hard, recover, and progress every week.

Programming Focus:

✔️ Build Muscle, Get Strong, Move Like an Athlete - each training week includes carefully crafted combinations of strength, hypertrophy, power, and performance training tactics

✔️ Increase Maximal Strength - heavy emphasis on increasing absolute strength across the big compound lifts

✔️ No Gimmicks, No Fluff - accessory exercises and hypertrophy training in every workout to help you maximize your gains

Program Highlights:

💥 4 Strength & Hypertrophy Workouts + 1 Plyometric & Sprint Conditioning Workout Every Week

💥 Simple, Yet Highly Effective - Ditch the circus acts, Cluster Sets provide order, intensity, and real results

💥 8 Week Training Program + 1 Optional Testing Week

Results Matter:

“I wanted to let you know that I am so thankful I joined the team. My strength numbers have grown tremendously and my attitude towards training has improved. Thanks for the awesome program.” - Miguel C.

Ditch the Circus - Cluster Up or Shut Up
Cluster Sets provide order, intensity, and real results. This type of training breaks up your set with short rest periods between reps. This means more weight, more volume, more intent with every single repetition. It's density training with real direction, less fatigue, more output, and way more focus.

Jump High. Sprint Fast.
If you don't use it, you will lose it. These movements help develop power, speed, coordination, and reactive strength abilities that will naturally decline if they aren’t practiced. They also reinforce efficient movement patterns, strengthen tendons and connective tissue, and improve nervous system responsiveness.

Sample Plyometric & Sprint Workout →
Every Thursday you will complete a Plyometric & Sprint workout. These workouts are designed to help you turn strength into power, and power into speed.
