This 13-week program is perfect for athletes in their off-season who need to come back bigger and stronger! It's best for Advanced lifters, and has been designed specifically to help you drive growth and strength development.
Rotating Powerbuilding uses programmed percentage work for the first lift of each day followed by RPE-based accessory work to account for athlete readiness on any given day.
This program is the distillation of my philosophy that has been honed over nearly two decades of coaching THOUSANDS of collegiate athletes. It uses a rotation of both exercises and intensities to allow you to continuously push hard while avoiding staleness and culminates in a PR week for you to set new 1RM's!
