This 9-week program has a focus around functional hypertrophy - building size by getting STRONG AF!

Strength Foundations is great for the beginner-intermediate lifter who is looking to improve their strength & size while also forging a strong foundation of strength to serve them long term.

It features 4 main lifts throughout the week with 2 conditioning/recovery and mobility days to keep the body in peak condition.

Get ready to pack on slabs of muscle and absolutely dominate the weights every time you step into the gym!

BUILD FOUNDATIONAL STRENGTH
One of the biggest mistakes I see younger lifters make when trying to add size is not making sure they are strong enough to do so! The strength you possess will always be the determining factor to maximizing your muscle building potential. Building a solid foundation of functional strength will ensure you are set up for long term success!

PACK ON LEGIT SIZE
The combination of heavy, multi-joint, compound movements along with higher training frequencies (utilizing full body training), will lead to SERIOUS muscle gains. We utilize functional hypertrophy rep ranges within our main exercises giving us the best blend of both strength AND size as well as hitting all of our major muscle groups up to 6 times within a 2 week cycle.
