FAQs
Can I run this program inside of my normal weightlifting program?
This program is written as a full weightlifting program, olympic lifts compliment the squat focus, so I would not recommend following another program here.
Is this program for beginners?
This program was written for intermediate lifters, if you are completely new to the olympic lifts, check out our free WL101 program. If you have some experience with the olympic lifts, this program will work!
Is coaching included?
Coaching is not included, but you can join our free discord community and post videos for feedback from our coaching team!
