Powerbuilding - 6 Week Squat Emphasis
is a hybrid program designed to build both strength and muscle mass with an emphasis on squatting.
This program has 5 training days per week split into a 2 On 1 Off then 3 On 1 Off format. With 2 Upper 2 Lower and 1 Full body day.
We uitilise linear periodisation in a block pattern to increase strength whilst wave loading our accessories and using drop sets and burnouts to stimulate hypertrophy.
This program has moderate intensity working in rep ranges 5-15 primarily with a higher overall volume. Lots of good quality food and rest is needed while following the program but results are guaranteed if you put the work in!
