This 4-week training block is designed to build foundational strength, reinforce technical proficiency in the squat, bench press, and deadlift, and promote muscular development through programmed accessories - all while managing fatigue and ensuring steady progression. By using RPE-based loading, the program allows for auto regulation, helping lifters adapt daily effort to their recovery and readiness levels.

Common questions

Yes, Ira’s Strength Focused Program is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 5 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 90 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.

Ira’s Strength Focused Program 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 5 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Ira’s Strength Focused Program 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.
