I just started powerlifting less than a year ago, doing 2 times the 531 program, 195kg deadlift x 2 and Squat 130 x 2 and bench press 85 kg x 1. After that i started this program for my prep for my first meet, I peaked 1 week out of my meet and i max out each lift in day. Squat 160 kg x 1 (pr) and i fail 170 kg, bench press 105 kg x 1 and deadlift 227.4 kg pr! And fail 237.4 kg, and make a 1 week taper going to my meet. I total 505 kg 170 kg squat/100kg Bench press/235kg deadlift @ 81.33 kg bw. I am very happy with my progress on this program and i will run it back with a lot of changes for bench press.

Brought my squat 1RM 420-445 and deadlift 475-495. Bench unfortunately I failed my attempt so I think some gains are there but didn't show in a new PR. I enjoyed the program though and reading Bromley's books helped me understand the concepts well.

I always followed alex on YouTube and getting this app was my chance to try and train like him. I had alreayd come of PH3 program with the following numbers. Squat - 415 Bench - 315 Dealift - 420 I went through the whole program and modified some things . First couple weeks the volume was great and everyone should really follow through even though you want to go hard . The following weeks in the 70-80% range sets drop to 5, 4, 3, but weifjt is higher so you feel it . But felt like I was coasting compared to week . The final weeks 16-19 is where you spend around d 90% range . You really gotta take those + sets serious if you want to make any gains . The final week 19 my new maxed where Squat 475 Bench -440 Dealift - 460 Overall great program for intermediate .

I really like how aside the main lift in each day you have as complementary the main lift of the other day but focusing on volume. Really helps to understand de movement and how to use the muscles

Great program on surplus, I found that back was a bit lacking as well as variation (but its free so) I love Bromley and this program is great for someone trying to improve their barbell skills, but be warned that its a grind when you get into those later weeks

Great results. I have 3y training and with some light cardio on upper days, I have accomplished better results than expected on my physique and also moderate increments on my strength

I like the system used, gained strength more in my legs, actually lost a lil in my bench. Had to add some calves in to get them in

I like bodybuilding focus on some parts and doing a few more things to train mobility and muscle that people rarely train like neck and such. But for main lift, absolutely great progress! Highly recommend if you want to change up something and change your body composition. Though please eat relatively in a surplus since this does require a lot of recovery and energy

I really like the structure of the progressions. It challenges you in different ways so it never leaves you bored or feeling stuck. The base and build up phases can be brutal at first but once you get through them your astounded at how much easier the volume becomes. I do this in a garage gym with no machines and I am able to get everything in with marginal modifications. I am on week 12 and I can see my rep maxes go up progressively. The weight feels lighter and lighter each session. I am 52 and 4 days a week is very doable even while going heavy. I hope to get my dead to over 315 my squat over 260my press over 125 and my bench over 235
