Introducing [FOUR POWER], the natural evolution following completion of the [FOUR STRENGTH] program. This advanced regimen hones in on enhancing an athlete's Rate of Force Development (RFD) through dynamic exercises like ballistic jumping, throwing, and tossing. Elevating RFD enables the generation of explosive power by exerting greater force in shorter durations—an indispensable attribute for impactful strikes.

Tailored for both beginners and intermediates, this power-focused program spans eight weeks, featuring two dedicated strength and power sessions weekly, plus an optional third session. Each level strategically targets four key exercises to amplify RFD across diverse vectors, complemented by thoughtfully chosen accessory exercises fostering continual strength development. Elevate your physical prowess and synchronize it with your skill set for a comprehensive training experience.

Become Powerful
Emphasizing explosive lifts and dynamic movements enhances a fighter's ability to rapidly generate force, leading to powerful strikes. A thoughtfully crafted strength and conditioning program not only develops physical strength but also hones the coordination and speed crucial for precise execution. This comprehensive approach significantly elevates a fighter's overall performance in the ring.

FAQs
How can I schedule my S&C sessions alongside my skill sessions?
Not to worry, I have included clear instructions/protocols within each session description to help you organize your training week properly.
What if I do not have access to a Trap/ Hex Bar?
You can substitute Trapbar Jumps for a Barbell Jump Squat if you do not have access to a Trap/Hex Bar. To substitute Trapbar Power Shrugs, perform a Clean Deadlift Shrug.
What if I do not have access to a landmine attachment?
To create a makeshift landmine attachment, place one end of the barbell facing a corner with a heavy dumbbell placed across on top of that same end to secure it.
Can I substitute the kettlebell exercises with dumbbells?
Yes, all kettlebell exercises in this program can be done with a dumbbell. For Kettlebell Swings, simply place the dumbbell in a vertical manner and hold onto the top with both hands (the weighted end, not the handle).
Any alternatives to a Weighted Dip Belt/Weighted Vest?
You can hold a dumbbell or slam ball securely in between your thighs/knees. if that is uncomfortable, you can thread a heavy-resistance band through a bumper plate and carry it like a backpack.
What if I do not know the One Rep Max (1RM) of my strength lifts?
For those that have completed [FOUR STRENGTH] program, you should have access to your relative 1RMs. For those that did not complete the testing week, I have included specific instructions within the exercise description of the program.
