About this program

An advanced four-day system that trains two qualities at once: maximal strength and explosive speed. Two max-effort days (lower and upper) ramp to a heavy single on a movement that rotates every week to avoid accommodation; two dynamic-effort days train the competition lifts for bar speed (squat 10×2, bench 9×3) on a 50→60% wave. Heavy accessory work hits the posterior chain, triceps and upper back. Built for experienced lifters who can safely handle near-maximal singles. Rotate the max-effort movements and repeat the three-week wave.
