Strength workout programs.

Programs built to add plates to the bar — linear progression, 5x5 and percentage-based strength training.

6 days

Push Pull Legs

The most popular hypertrophy split: organise training by movement pattern — pushing, pulling and legs — and hit each muscle twice a week with high quality volume.

Upper / Lower Split

A balanced four-day split that trains the whole upper body and lower body twice a week each — the best blend of frequency, volume and recovery for most people.

Full-Body Workout

Train every major muscle each session, three days a week. The most efficient and proven structure for beginners — high frequency on the lifts that matter.

5/3/1

Jim Wendler's 5/3/1: percentage-based waves around the four big lifts, with a final AMRAP set each week. Slow, sustainable, and built to keep adding plates for years.

nSuns 531 LP

A high-volume spin on 5/3/1 with daily AMRAP top sets that drive weekly progression. More volume and faster gains than vanilla 5/3/1 — if you can recover.

GZCLP

Cody Lefever's GZCL method as a linear-progression beginner program: tiered intensity (T1 heavy, T2 volume, T3 accessory) so you progress strength and size together.

Madcow 5x5

The intermediate successor to StrongLifts: ramping 5x5 sets and weekly (not per-session) progression, so you keep getting stronger after linear gains slow down.

Texas Method

A weekly volume/recovery/intensity structure: a hard volume day Monday, a light day Wednesday, and a PR intensity day Friday. A proven step beyond linear progression.

View program
3 days

GreySkull LP

A beginner linear program with a final AMRAP set on the main lifts, so you bank extra reps and progress faster while learning to push close to failure.

5 days

Powerbuilding Program

The best of both worlds: heavy compound work for strength plus targeted hypertrophy accessories for size. Look strong and be strong.

View program
4 days

Powerlifting Program

Built around the three competition lifts with specific accessory work to bring up weak points. Everything serves a bigger total.

Hybrid Athlete Program

Train to be strong AND conditioned: heavy lifting paired with running and engine work, programmed so the two goals support rather than sabotage each other.
