If you're looking to start improving your body composition, health, and movement quality all while being the strongest you - This is the program for YOU. Other powerbuilding programs fail to understand fatigue management and proper exercise selection. These programs end up digging you into a hole where neither strength or size is built. At Indy City Barbell Powerbuilding, we understand these pitfalls and developed a program that respects training economy. This program isn't for beginners but for anyone looking to grow while progressing the big 3.

Pack on tissue.
We've added the best accessories to compliment the big 3, build muscle, and improve movement quality. It's far too common to see cheap programs overprescribe the same movement patterns that wreck the athlete leaving them flat and in pain. If building quality tissue is your priority look no further. Be ready for the best pump!

Build Strength
Periodization is how we progress. Knowing when to add weight and more importantly when not to takes planning. Take the guess work out of what weight to use, how many sets and reps, and focus on being an athlete.

Coaches
coach-avatar Austin Blake

I have extensive knowledge in strength and conditioning with a bachelors degree in kinesiology. Being a competitive powerlifter has allowed me to exercise theory and application.

coach-avatar Steve Gentili

I'm an elite powerlifter and have coached several now successful athletes. It takes critical thinking to design the right program but it's down to you to lift the weight.

FAQs
Who is this training for?
We recommend this program for intermediate level lifters with at least 1-2 years of experience but it was designed for anyone ready to work hard.
What if I miss a day?
If you miss a day, simply make it up before the end of the week. If that isn't possible, continue on. What matters is you keep showing up.
What should I expect on an average training day?
Expect a main compound movement with bodybuilding accessories to follow. Our workouts can take anywhere from 45 to roughly 90 minutes.
How much communication will I get with the coach?
Our coaches will be active daily and can offer form critiques, answer questions, and hold you accountable.
What if I can't do the exercise programmed?
We offer substitutes for all of the exercises. If you don't have the equipment we'll have an equivalent option for you.
