You only have a short amount of time and need to get strong fast. This 6 Week cycle has you covered. But be aware, this is going to suck the life out of you. You need to recover and you will need to eat a lot.
We incorporated this cycle at Britta Barbell Training and have seen some vast progressions in strength and mental fortitude in our athletes.
This cycle is very efficient in beginner - intermediate lifters, that need a lot of exposure to heavy lifts in order to gain maximal strength and confidence.
