This is missing olympic lifts (snatch, clean) which are pretty important. I will update it when I can. Otherwise, just add them to your full body days or maybe a separate, fourth olympic lift day. Tried to create a good waterpolo strength program that is only 3 days a week and low fatigue, so that you can go to practice and workout at the same time. Should work with a busy schedule, as it’s only 3 days a week and can be done on your off-days. The preacher curl and tricep isolation movements are optional, I just added them as I do want my arms to grow aesthetically a bit as well.

Common questions

Yes, Waterpolo Strength is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 2 weeks are fully unlocked.

This program is built around a full gym. Make sure you have consistent access before starting, since the progression model assumes you can perform the same movements week over week.

Each session typically takes around 40 minutes to complete. That estimate covers your working sets but doesn't account for warm-up or rest between sets, so budget a little extra time when you're first learning the movements.

Waterpolo Strength is structured around 3 training days per week, with rest days built in to allow for recovery. The Boostcamp app lets you reschedule sessions if your week doesn't go to plan.

The program runs for 2 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Waterpolo Strength is available inside the Boostcamp app, free on iOS and Android. Once you download the app, you can search for the program by name. The app tracks all your sets and weights automatically, so you always know exactly what to do next session.
