Iron Hippo Strongman Program

Program Description

Program that I (a strongman competitor) created. It is not perfect, but it increased my strength tremendously and increased my training partner's deadlift by 45 lbs. Recommended workout days are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, but it can be changed. Take a deload week after weeks 3, 6, and 9 if needed.
