Strongman 202 is the next evolution for anyone who has tasted strongman movements and is hooked. Strongman 202 is a complete strength and conditioning program with a strongman focus. Though this is not a program just for strongman competitors, it was developed out of trial and error in preparation for California's Strongest Man and is influenced by the wonderful work of the good people at WESTSIDE Barbell.
Participants are expected to commit fully to at least four essential training days each week (max effort upper, max effort lower, dynamic effort upper, and dynamic effort lower). Optional event days and special exercises can be used to one's own discretion. With commitment to the program, athletes can expect to set two constantly varied PRs each week with little to no psychological stress. Athletes will train absolute strength and speed strength in a way that allows for unlimited potential for both. Accessory exercises are designed to improve imbalances and weaknesses. In addition, high rep exercises are used to prevent injury and increase recovery time without drugs.
The conditioning element is varied greatly, as well, and supports both aesthetic and performance goals. Oh yeah...and, this will be the most fun you'll ever have in a gym!
