Unlock Minimalist Max Strength in Capazity

Premium members get this full program with every session scheduled, logged and auto-progressed from their own maxes.

About this program

A 5-week minimalist max strength cycle built around two heavy barbell sessions per week. Each week trains squat/bench in one session and deadlift/press in the other, with progressive loading toward heavy singles in Week 5. Designed for intermediate lifters who want maximal strength gains with minimal weekly time commitment and ample rest days. This version spaces the two weekly sessions on Day 1 and Day 4 to provide two rest days between sessions and three rest days before the next week.
