You Will Harness A Legendary Power not seen in 1000 Years! Golden Warrior is Bald Omni Man’s take on a program that adapts based on your needs, while also helping you to achieve serious size and strength goals with a flexible, realistic, and customizable approach.
Golden Warrior is modeled after Bald Omni Man’s own training and adapted for general use for all experience levels. In his training, he places a great deal of consideration into making training fit in with real life, preferring to take a flexible approach.
Enjoy a customizable template program that is designed to give a hands-on experience that feels similar to coaching from Bald Omni Man himself - with detailed coaching notes that will keep you accountable and on track, exact guidance with form and execution that won’t leave you guessing on how you need to perform each movement, and enough variety for you to run the program over and over, having fun with every iteration.
A,B,C Plans
The following ABC approach is modeled after what Bald Omni Man does when faced with real-life circumstances. In a best-case scenario, you train 5 times per week. When you are strapped for time or have a big project to work on, you train 4 times per week, and when you need a deload, you will only train 3 times per week. You will make awesome gains no matter what, but 5 days will give the most results possible.
If you are someone that generally just wants to train 3-4 times per week, it is perfectly valid to just run this program in 3–4- day stints indefinitely. If you train 5 times a week, just run all the days as written, but if you are only training 3-4 days, stop your training week after the third and fourth training days respectively.
If you need to run plan C exclusively due to scheduling, considerations have been made to allow for 2x frequency on everything in 3 days of training.
This is what makes Golden Warrior a great program for melding fitness with your everyday life. It only demands as much of your time as you are willing and able to give to it and will give you great results no matter what.

After quite a long break from the gym I started this program. I blew through all my previous PBs and am pretty much doing intermediate numbers now, I grew a lot as well. It's the most fun program I've done yet, I love the idea of a back + legs day as legs are not a priority. I couldn't recover from the 20 rep dips on upper 3 too well, so I changed the DB press for weighted dips on upper 2. And the bro day starts with heavy tricep only work + pull-ups. I am at the end but will be starting this program again, I might increase volume slightly in some areas but not sure about it yet.

I should have looked to see that there no deadlifts included which is a lift I enjoy and missed doing.

Great program, made some minor changes towards the end to lessen biceps volume and accommodate some elbow pain. Very upper body focused and great for maintaining lower body volume .

This program has a lot of variety and flexibility. The notes and PDF are super helpful and reasonably easy to follow. I saw much greater than expected muscle gains. I look the biggest and strongest I’ve ever been. The vanity is real. With that said, I haven’t seen the lifting gains I would’ve expected, particularly in bench press. I think the program is totally worth trying out. I recommend it if you wanna look swole.

Great Program! Only added hip thrusts to the second leg day and more rear delt work in general. I also swapped out the sissy squats for leg extensions since they're easier on my knees. Did the 5 day version and took every set to failure or one rep from failure unless otherwise told not to. I could see how if you don't push hard enough, this program may not have enough volume for you. If you train hard, reap the gains!!!

I got fucking nasty on this program. Lean eating is more important than anything. Second to that was this program. I did 6 days a week. The variety kept each day from being routine or boring. While the progressive increments and focus on hypertrophy kept me from plateauing. Great program.

Love this workout set. Definitely feeling it after each workout can’t wait to see what I feel like at the end of the program

Nice flexible program! Love the way it’s set up and that I can mold it to my life week to week. I’m training handstands and acrobatics a few times a week and this makes it easy to keep weight training as part of the routine without needing to take crazy long or anything. I get these workouts done in 45-60m each session.
