This 4 week competition program is written to peak you in the lifts on meet day. Each day of the program includes a training goal so that you can make adjustments to the percentages to meet YOUR competition goals. The volume in the lifts gradually decreases as the intensity increases and the squats and pulls are written to develop power. Everything is provided to you, including lift primers to dial in your technique and accessories at the end of each session to help you stay healthy.
