FAQs
Is this program for me?
If you are a Masters lifter (ages 35+) or someone who is looking for a little less volume, then yes it is. If that is not you, check out our other 4-5x per week programs.
Can I use this program to help to improve my lifts for Crossfit?
Sure can! Just understand that this program is designed for improving your overall strength for a single rep at max weight rather than barbell cycling.
What if I want personalized coaching or video feedback?
Contact us at info@heartland-strength.com to talk about further options.
What if I'm doing a meet that does not line up with your program?
Easy! We can insert a 4-week competition prep for you!

"I have hit PRs in my back squat, front squat, clean, jerk, snatch, and gymnastics under this program. It ultimately the friendships I've mad along the way that truly keep me here."

"The programming is very challenging. I have taken on the challenge. I'm stronger of course, but mentally I have grown as well. I love being tested and now i'm working on weaknesses I didn't even know I had."
