Strength ain’t a gift—it’s ripped from the iron with blood, sweat, and unyielding guts.

Squatober, this savage 4-week October meat grinder, cranks your back squat into a beastly weapon with 4 brutal squat-heavy days per week, slamming power cleans, bench press carnage, and hardcore accessories to forge a full-body war machine that tests every ounce of your meathead toughness.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Built for hardcore meatheads who live for the grind, lifters who eat PRs for breakfast, and tough bastards ready to dominate the squat rack—perfect for those who thrive on pain and want to prove their iron will in a 31-day squat massacre.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Through grit, find glory! Squatober is engineered to obliterate squat limits and build an unbreakable resolve. You’ll smash gains on squat and bench maxes, pack on slabs of muscle, and forge a battle-hardened physique that crushes anything.
