This eight week training program will allow you the greatest strength gains ever in eight short weeks, simply by
following our exclusive step by step program.
You will develop more strength and confidence as each week passes! Your workouts will be intense and your results
will be incredible! Remember, strength is developed in cycles. You will improve your overall strength by utilizing
assistance exercises to supplement and develop your weaker supporting muscle groups.
However, the genius of our uniquely designed strength cycle is that it will overcome this hard gain nemesis by
preventing over-training and rewarding the sum of your lighter and assistance exercises.
For example, you probably know many lifters who train everyday and never get stronger. The reason is that they are
attacking the same muscle areas with the same weight and the same exercises. You must allow muscle to rebuild and
regenerate itself while continuing to train supporting or complementing muscular areas
3. Squat (Rear)
-45 lbs. x 10 reps (bar)
-1 set lightweight x 10 reps (Apr. 30% of max.)
-1 set moderate weight x 8 reps (Apr. 60% of max.)
-2 sets heavy weight x 5 reps (Apr. 80% of max.)
Begin with the bar and move to a lighter weight with minimum rest. Perform a moderate weight set before moving
to your two heavy work sets. If you must wear knee wraps, only do so on your final work sets. Remember, stay tight
and squat below parallel to develop that deep explosive power from your hips, glutes and thighs.
As each week passes you may increase your training weight as you become stronger, however, you will always
maintain your reps.
4. Power Cleans
-2 sets lightweight x 1 0 reps

developing speed and control. It is not necessary to pile on the poundage.

-1 sets moderate weight x 10 reps
