Recovering Powerlifters
For powerlifters who want to build a more aesthetic physique
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
You’ll have to change your mindset entirely. Using your muscles to move as much weight as possible vs using the weight to provide stimulus for the muscles to grow are very different things!
Different options for main lifts: option 1 is for those who want to keep one toe in the water of the powerlifting world, perhaps taking a short break but returning to it later, whilst option 2 are for those who are entirely burnt out by powerlifting and just want to get away from the main barbell lifts.
See below for recommended training program outline.
