Powerbuilding I – 2nd Generation

The Powerbuilding 1: 2nd Generation template builds on the success of its predecessor by focusing heavily on maximal strength in the Big Three, the squat, bench press, and deadlift.

However, the new generation offers custom exercise selection, expanded conditioning programming, more isolation exercise exercises, double progression, and Percentage/RPE prescriptions that build over each block, as well as 2-day and 4-day versions. The included eBook is also expanded for this specific template, complete with sections on programming theory, as well as nutrition and supplementation.

The Powerbuilding I Template is designed for individuals who meet the following criteria:

1. Have some previous experience (>3 months) training with barbells. If you’re new to training that’s great! We recommend our Beginner Template for those who have not been training with barbells consistently. Don’t worry, this template will be waiting for you when you’re ready.
2. Trainees who want to focus on increasing muscular size while improving strength in the powerlifts, e.g. the squat, bench press, and deadlift. While we expect most to see improved muscle size and strength, this is not a template focused explicitly on powerlifting nor bodybuilding. Rather, this serves as a blend of strength-training and bodybuilding wrapped up into one template.

Like our Hypertrophy templates, this is one of our preferred off-season templates for strength athletes who want to gain muscle mass while we continue to focus training resources on the powerlifts.

Finally, the Powerbuilding I template is a great post-beginner template for those who are interested in losing body fat or who are looking to increase muscle size and strength in the powerlifts.

Scheduling

This template includes (3) different 11-week strength and conditioning programs with a choice of either a 2-, 3-, or 4-day programming schedule.

Exercise Selection

Each of the (3) programs available feature exercise selection freedom to use the movements that you prefer.

What’s Next?

After the Powerbuilding I Template, you can choose several different paths:

• You can run it again using the same or different exercises if you saw good progress the first time
• You can move to one of our other templates such as our Hypertrophy I for focus on muscle size, Strength I for focus on powerlifting, Titan I for focus on CrossFit, General Strength and Conditioning for a well-balanced program, or Endurance for focus on fitness goals.
• If you liked the template, but want programming more individualized for you, and/or help with weight management, our coaching staff would be happy to work with you. 

Of course, if you liked your experience with this template, the natural recommendation would be continuing on to the Powerbuilding II template next.
