This program is designed for anyone looking to build lean muscle and strength. This program is progressed monthly, through science-based principles, to maximize muscle development & strength! This program will help you get stronger, leaner, and more conditioned. You will have 24/7 access to us and the WPL PowerBuilding Team Community!
This is not your typical bodybuilding or powerlifting program that uses the same exercises & gets boring. We combine the best parts of body building and powerlifting in a systematically progressive manner to keep your workouts fresh, manage fatigue, build muscle, and increase strength!
This program ensures a well-rounded approach to training every body region and movement pattern on a weekly basis. We balance the need for longer progressions, with keeping the workouts fresh. We use undulated periodization, changing movements and set/rep schemes every 3-4 weeks. You will manage your fatigue, feel fresher, and break through plateaus with this innovative programming style!
We program 4 lifts & 1 conditioning workout each week. Each training session generally takes 60-75 minutes!
