Strong & Jacked 2.0

The Strength Cave

Coach
Andres Vargas

Back with a brand new version of the ever popular Strong & Jacked training program!

If you're looking to transform into a BEAST that can lift heavy AF and look stacked too, this is your program.

The Strong & Jacked 2.0 program is going to help you put more plates on the bar AND put inches on your arms.

You'll push yourself to add plates to the bar with heavy compound lifts (squats, presses, deadlifts, etc.)

Then, you'll enjoy a healthy dose of skin busting pumps to fuel muscle growth during the accessory work.

By the end of this program, you will be stronger and more muscular than you've ever been before!

FAQs
Does this program include coaching?
Not directly. I do provide detailed instructions and notes for each exercise as well as demonstration videos but you will not have access to me for questions or coaching. If you want access to me along with a program, feel free to reach out to me for custom program design and coaching services!
Do the exercises change at all?
The exercises stay consistent for several weeks at a time but some do change to similar & slightly more challenging variations over time. This consistency in practicing similar exercises for several weeks at a time is important for progressive overload and making efficient gains!
How much training experience do I need for this program?
This program is best for someone with experience and familiarity with lifting weights. The workouts are challenging and require a basic understanding of how to perform compound lifts with good form. If you are a beginner, try my Foundational Strength program first before doing this program.
How long do I have access to the program?
Train Heroic gives you access to this program for 1 full year. During that year, you can repeat this program as many times as you'd like :)
What if I have to modify the program or swap out an exercise?
You can easily make changes to the program or swap out an exercise in the app! Upon signing up, I'll send you a program guide that shows you exactly how to do it. Plus, I try to suggest substitutions in the exercise notes for certain movements as well.
