Program Description

A simple but effective block periodization template intended for intermediate to advanced lifters. Perfect for anyone looking for a less intense and customizable routine that can be utilized as offseason training or between competition prep. Use the AMRAP sets in week 3 to calculate your new 1 rep max and repeat the program with the new weight. Week 4 is a deload but can be used as a test week for finding your true 1 rep max or skipped all together.
