Program Description
You don’t need another cookie-cutter program built for guys who spend more time taking selfies in the locker room than moving iron on the platform. Cluster Torture isn’t for everyone — it’s for the lifters who chase real strength, not participation trophies. It’s a powerbuilding program forged in the crucible of pain, precision, and progression, built around the time-tested brutality of Poliquin-style cluster sets and the speed-intent philosophy of Compensatory Acceleration Training (CAT). The mission? Simple: - Bench more weight than your joints think is safe. - Squat and deadlift so heavy your nervous system writes you a resignation letter. - Pack on hypertrophy with tough accessory work that burns like hell and builds like bricks. This isn’t about chasing the pump — it’s about earning it under fatigue, with intent, after your CNS has been slapped awake and dared to adapt. Every week is calculated chaos — alternating max-effort clusters with high-volume volume back-end beatdowns. Every 5th week? A strategic deload that still hurts — because 2x8 at higher loads ain’t a vacation. Inspired by Jailhouse strenght. Not affiliated.
