I created this 8-week training block to give you answers to some of the most frequently asked questions that I get.

No more guesswork is needed on your part regarding which movements to select, how to progress them over the course of several months, how heavy to train, how much to train, and how often.

I've got you covered.

This is a 4-day split that focuses on Upper for 2 days and Lower for 2 days.

Each session is detailed so you know EXACTLY what I need from you in every single movement that I've prescribed.

Expect gradually increasing percentages, strategically adapting our CNS to acclimate our motor patterns to heavier loads. I've handpicked specific movements that will get you the most bang for your buck, adding strength and size to your physique.

If you stick to the program & treat each session like it matters, you’ll develop power and strength like you’ve never had before

We couldn't be more excited to have you train on this program with us.

Get ready for a heck of a ride over the next 8 weeks!
