Program Description

This program will build your confidence like no other with a barbel. If followed while eating right, you’ll work muscle, strength, health, and self-respect into existence. This program is meant to be repeated for months on end with deloading and overloading built right in. It’s simple, grueling, and effective. Start with a light max and work your way up. At the end of the three weeks, add 15-25lbs to your lower body lift maxes and 5-15lbs to upper body lift maxes. More weight to your maxes are earned with consistency, resting, and eating.
