IMPORTANT NOTE: Many of my lifters hit PRs after their working sets of singles on WEEK 3 DAYS 3 & 5. I allowed them to go up in weight ONLY if they didn’t miss a single rep in those sessions. If they missed a “bonus” rep, they had to move on. I will post the rest of the cycle in a few w...
2019-02-27 07:48:42 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a big one! Essentially I try to put Percent/reps x sets. UNLESS it is an accessory then it is just sets x reps. There also is other notation that is usually written out and self explanatory.
The reason I write this way is because load used is most important. Thats why I put it...

2019-01-11 05:33:01 +0000 UTC View PostThese are the eval sheets I use with my lifters to make sure they do the best they can from week to week.
2018-12-22 23:24:56 +0000 UTC View PostOne of the best squat cycle's I have come up with is in this program. 90% of my lifters have PR'd their squat within these 6 weeks.
2018-12-22 23:20:22 +0000 UTC View PostThis block consists of a lot of volume, complexes, and positional work. It's main focus is to build fluency in the positions and gain end range strength and work capacity. It is an excellent program for beginners.
2018-11-20 07:21:14 +0000 UTC View PostFirst off I'd like to thank each and every one of you for supporting me. You have know idea how grateful I am to have this support system.
My goal is to be one of the greatest coaches in American Weightlifting history. It may seem lofty but if I fall short it won't matter because I am doing ...

2018-07-12 16:52:08 +0000 UTC View PostThis program is going to work primarily in developing leg strength and work capacity. It will prepare you for heavy weights with two (every other minute) back squat sessions and a tempo front squat session every week.
2018-06-28 17:07:22 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys here is some more programming!
2018-05-07 03:40:07 +0000 UTC View PostBonus programming for you guys because I love you!

2018-04-10 03:48:52 +0000 UTC View PostThank you for the support. Here is some of my work!
2018-04-03 21:14:50 +0000 UTC View PostI just wanted to say that it's truly surreal to have all of your support. This is what I do full time now (I also remote coach). As I went in to my (old) job to give my boss my two weeks notice and told him what my plan was he asked me, "Are you goin to get a real job?" I basically avoided answering...

2018-02-05 02:28:52 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys so to read the working sets look at the % then the numbers are sets times reps. Example: Back Squat 80% 6/2 is, 6 sets of 2
