Program Overview
1. Weeks 1-4: Strength Phase
Focus on building raw strength with moderate-heavy loads and low reps (2-6) on SBD lifts. Assistance work targets hypertrophy with moderate reps (8-15).
2. Week 5: Deload
A lighter week to reduce fatigue and optimize recovery, preparing for heavy lifting in the next phase.
3. Week 6-9: Peaking Phase
Ramp up intensity with very low reps (1-3) on SBD lifts, pushing close to your max.
4. Week 10: Max Testing
Test your one-rep max (1RM) for squat, bench, and deadlift. See how far you’ve come and hit new PRs.
Program Variations
This program is highly repeatable, allowing you to make continuous progress by swapping in new variations of the SBD lifts, such as pause squats, Larsen presses, or deficit deadlifts, to target different muscle groups and improve weaknesses. You can also rotate assistance exercises, like replacing barbell rows with cable rows or hack squats with Bulgarian split squats, to keep the training fresh and balanced. You can continue to challenge your body, prevent plateaus, and achieve ongoing strength and hypertrophy gains.
