GZCLP

GZCLP is the official name for Cody Lefever’s Linear Progression program for intermediate lifters who want to build strength and size. This is a highly popular alternative to Starting Strength and Stronglifts due to its effectiveness and interesting structure.

The program is relatively simple. Each workout is dedicated to three different types of lifts: a primary heavy compound lift (T1) done for 5 sets of 3 reps, a secondary light compound lift (T2) done for 3 sets of 10 reps, and tertiary accessory exercises like curls, abs, pulls, etc. (3) done for 3 sets of 15 reps
