Old-Time Strong
Styrka Fitness
Old-time strength with modern sensibilities.
This program is designed for intermediate to advanced lifters who want to build the strength and physique of an old-time strongman. If you'd rather put massive weight over your head instead of building a bigger chest, then this is the program for you.
It's a blend of classic and current strongman-type training. 4 lifting days per week with an optional strongman conditioning day.
While you can do most of these exercises at most conventional gyms, it's recommended to have access to basic strongman/powerlifting/weightlifting equipment to get the most out of the program.
