Welcome to Strength 3. We continue to build on the foundation established in our last phase further pushing our strength, exercise technique. Your strength story is just getting started. Let's keep building.

This program will alternate between 3-week phases of accumulation, focusing on volume, and intensification, emphasizing intensity and load, to transform your physique and elevate your performance.

The 12 Week program features a 4-day microcycle split, consisting of Upper Body 1, Lower Body 1, Upper Body 2, and Lower Body 2. This structure is ideal for compound exercises that demand greater recovery time. Each muscle group is targeted twice a week, but the total volume per session for each group is reduced.

LET'S GET THESE GAINS!
