STRENGTH

Looking to really focus on strength progression in the gym? You are in the right place. This program was designed to emphasis strength development, using the Back Squat, Bench Press, and Deadlift (SBD) as your main measures of strength progression.

Why SBD? A strength-specific training program that focuses on the squat, bench press, and deadlift as the main exercises works because these movements involve targeting some of the largest muscle groups in the body. For most people, these three movements will be the strongest lifts they have, so seeing all three progress is a great way to know they are getting stronger.

This program will have a bias towards lower rep sets for your primary lifts (1-6 reps) to really place an emphasis on strength progression. While the accessory exercises are designed to help target specific muscle groups and movement patterns that are involved with the primary lifts.

While not the primary goal of the program, you can still expect to see progress with your muscle growth, while muscle size and strength is not always perfectly linear, generally speaking, a stronger muscle is a bigger muscle and vice versa.
