Coach Ryan Horton

The most requested program I get is from former players who ask for a program, "just like we did when I played."

This is the inspiration for the Legends team.

The Legends program puts a heavy emphasis on Olympic lifts (Snatches, Cleans, Jerks) and big compound movements (Squats, Bench, Pull-ups)... exactly how I've trained elite athletes for two decades.

If you're a former athlete who wants to train like you used to, or you're a weekend warrior who wants to dominate your softball league or your next adventure race... the Legends team could be just what you're looking for.

Like all my training teams, the Legends 4 Day team comes with a FREE 7 Day trial so you can know for sure if it's a good fit before you commit.

Train Like a D1 Athlete

I've taken the training that I've used successfully for years with D1 Athletes and have condensed it down to a 4-day a week program that can be completed in about an hour each session.

Become More Powerful & Explosive

Will you get bigger and stronger using this program? Yes. But, the real focus of this program is becoming more powerful and explosive. Expect plenty of Olympic lifting, box jumps and more to help you dominate the competition.
