To build a 1 rep max strength for a powerlifting meet, inspired by Matt Vena's free 4-week intermediate program called "Matt Vena Intermediate Powerlifting Program" on Boostcamp. If you have any questions, check Matt Vena's description under his program. Week 13-15 are incomplete, because they are meant for deloads only if necessary. Think of your own percentages, reps, and sets there, but the excercises should remain the same. Once you hit maximum rep range on an accessory, increase the weight next time (for example, hitting 12 reps on biceps hammer, increase the weight next time)

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 120 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.

The program runs for 15 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.
