Powerlifting + Max. Strength is a premium, high-performance strength training program designed to build serious raw power, improve overall athleticism, and deliver noticeable gains in your big lifts — all while keeping your body resilient and mobile.

This intense 4–6 day per week block (shown as a 4-week snapshot with Week 1 & 2 visible) follows a proven heavy compound focus structure, rotating emphasis across the key power movements:
• Heavy Bench days that hammer your pressing strength
• 5x5 Deadlift sessions to build brutal pulling power
• Heavy Squat work for foundational lower-body dominance
• 5x5 Incline Bench and Heavy Deadlift variations to attack weaknesses and drive progression

Every training day kicks off with targeted mobility & activation work featuring staples like:
• World’s Greatest Stretch (the ultimate full-body hip, thoracic, and dynamic warm-up move)
• Scorpion, Hip 90/90 Switches, Banded Crab Walks, Inchworm, and Banded Deadbugs — keeping your joints healthy and movement quality elite
From there, you’ll dive into big compound lifts (Back Squat, Deadlift, Bench Press, Incline Bench, Shoulder Press) using proven rep schemes like 5x5, 4-3-3-2-2, and progressive overload, paired with smart accessory work:
• Rows, flies, lateral raises, leg raises, glute bridges, curls, tricep extensions, calf raises, and more

The result? A balanced attack on strength, hypertrophy, posterior chain power, shoulder stability, and core integrity — perfect for intermediate to advanced lifters chasing new PRs, better body composition, and long-term durability.

Whether you’re prepping for a powerlifting meet, looking to dominate your sport, or simply want to get stronger, more explosive, and injury-resistant, this block delivers no-fluff, results-driven programming in the world-class TrainHeroic app.

Beat Plateaus + Hit PRs Without Breaking
Tired of grinding for months with zero progress on your squat, bench, or deadlift? This 8-week block uses heavy progressive compounds (5x5, 4-3-3-2-2) with smart variation to drive real strength gains. Athletes finish this block stronger, with bigger totals, and—crucially—without the nagging aches that kill momentum. You get real, measurable PRs while keeping your body fresh for the next cycle.

Build Bulletproof Joints
Most powerlifters fear the day a tweak in the hip, shoulder, or lower back forces them to deload for weeks. Daily elite mobility & activation work plus balanced accessories keep your joints healthy and movement quality high. You train heavy 6 days a week with confidence, knowing you’re proactively reducing injury risk instead of reacting to it.

Become a Well-Rounded Athlete
Pure power programs often leave you stiff, imbalanced, or weak in supporting muscles. This block attacks that head-on: heavy big-3 focus for raw strength + unilateral work, posterior chain emphasis, shoulder stability, core integrity, and full-body mobility. You don’t just get stronger—you become more explosive, resilient, and capable across sports, life, and future training blocks.

Train 6 Days/Week Without Burnout
High-frequency programs sound brutal… until you’re sore, tired, and dreading sessions. This program is intelligently structured: daily mobility primers flush the system, accessories target weak points without excessive volume, and heavy days rotate emphasis (bench, deadlift, squat focus) so no single lift or body part gets destroyed.

Lasting Results, Not Quick Fixes
Many programs give you a short-term boost, then gains vanish when you switch. This 8-week block builds a stronger foundation: progressive overload on the big lifts, improved movement quality, better muscle balance, and injury-proof habits. Athletes walk away not only with new PRs, but with a more durable, capable body that sets them up for long-term success in powerlifting and beyond.
