Far too often you see powerlifting programs that are cookie cutter programs, that are given no effort in creating, and give minimal results. After a decade of following this sport and training with some of the best lifters of all time, I can GUARANTEE consistent and size-able results, that go beyond the basic sets of 5. You will train harder than ever, and get better results than you've ever seen. Whether you are a beginner or seasoned veteran, this program is for you.
