An intermediate powerlifting programme aimed at intermediate masters with a focus on increasing strength while prioritising recovery. Main Lift Structure: Top set (heavier focus for strength) Back-off sets (volume to build muscle & reinforce technique). Accessory work. Deload every 4th week (~60% of 1RM, easy 3×3) Bench Press Frequency: 4×/week (2 heavy days, 2 lighter/variation days) → accelerates bench progress. Progression: Intensities wave each week (5s → 4s → 3s → deload), then slightly increase each new cycle. Week 15 is a test week (heavy singles).

Common questions

Yes, Chat GPT Top-Set Intermediate Masters is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 16 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 60 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.

Chat GPT Top-Set Intermediate Masters is structured around 4 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 16 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Chat GPT Top-Set Intermediate Masters 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.
