WHAT IS THE JACKED & TAN 2.0 PROGRAM?

Jacked and Tan 2.0 (J&T 2.0) is an intermediate-level powerbuilding program that emphasizes hypertrophy and work capacity development over peak strength development. Don't worry, you'll get stronger too.

Made by coach Cody Lefever (GZCL), J&T 2.0 gained popularity as a fun lifting program that is a break from the usual monotonous powerlifting training. J&T 2.0 has many exercise variations, different progression schemes, and a lot of volume to help you become a more complete and competent lifter.

Read below for the full program guide on how to use J&T 2.0 app.

I loved this program, it gave me a sample of what this app is about. I definitely will be repeating this workout program when I get the chance.

Awesome program. The mix of high volume and heavy low volume, and the way it changes as the program goes on for the full 12 weeks, is just awesome. Plus, it’s FUN. The variety and programming make this a great resource. I achieved new PRs on all major lifts and bulked up in size at the same time. Will be repeating.

Program is very good. It requires long 1.5h -2h training sessions. Nutrition and recovery should be prioritized.

Great program, my only complaint is that it can be very long. I get agitated when my workouts go beyond 90 minutes. I made slight modifications: - Removed Pec Flys entirely to save time, since theres already a ton of chest volume and didn't feel like it added much. - Kept my rests relatively short (<90secs) as opposed to the 2-3mins suggested - On shoulder days I switched out Push Press with Incline Bench as I just wasn't a fan of that exercise. - Leg days were the longest and sometimes to save time I would skip the single leg press. I do really like the variation in rep schemes for this program, it keeps every week feeling different and fun. Definitely recommend

Good program, good variety so it doesn’t get boring and getting good results even though I’m not finished yet. Gained size and I’m hitting new bests as they’re recorded in the app. It’s A LOT of work and a lot of time in the gym. Im hoping when my body fully recovers from the work load I’ll hit even higher PRs at the end of the programs PR days

Amazing, amazing program. Been doing this program for a month on 1800 cals deficit and haven't missed a lift yet but gotten stronger. After 13kgs lost id expect heavy strength loss but it was only minimal. Highly recommend

Very effective program! Most amount of volume I’ve ever done but left each workout feeling accomplished. Set multiple rep PRs and saw a good amount of overall strength gains. Workouts took about 2-2.5 hours even with supersets, so it’s a bit of a time commitment. Overall a great program for strength and hypertrophy that I would recommend everyone run at least once.

Best program I’ve ever done, hands down. The variety keeps me from getting bored and the focus on reps over pounds has made it so very very rarely have a discouraging day since I can drop the weight and still get the reps in. I’m halfway through and already got a bench PR and hit a squat I hadn’t attempted since 2018. I’ve wound up doing more recovery days than programmed such that I’m on week 6 of the program while actually just getting to week 10 in terms of actual time (some chronic illness issues) but if anything I think it’s helped me progress as much as I have. I’ve already recommended it to friends. Advice if you’re just starting: eat SO much food.
