Waxman's Gym - 14 Week Initial Progression
(Originally found here, by Waxman's Gym)
Program Cliffs:
- 5 days per week, 14 weeks total
- Complete cycle leading to peaking for a competition
- Preparation phase (6 weeks) of volume & complexes leading to a 1RM test
- Competition phase (8 weeks) to re-test in a competition
- All lifts based around Snatch, C&J, Back Squat, Front Squat
- Expect a variety of lifts throughout the preparation phase:
- Clean grip pulls, blocks, pulls from above/below knee, both full and power variations
- Preparation phase also has general preparedness and athletic exercises
- Often not seen in other programs: jumps, throws, and sprints are programmed
- This could be a great variety if you're used to only performing the classics
- Reps are kept low, mostly to sets of 4 or under
- Some exercises may be unfamiliar, i.e "Canella Cross"
- Please use this link for demonstration videos
- These also cover pulls for example, and this could be useful for understanding their preference on cues/performing the movements
- There is a 1-Week Transition phase I also included in the spreadsheet
- It is directly after the 14-week program is complete
- High Intensity, minimal exercises to keep CNS primed for your next program
- I also included his 3-Week Strength phase
- If desired: I believe the Transition and then Strength phase could be run consecutively, leading directly into the next program, the Empire Classic Progression
Thank u!!!
