This is a great program for someone that wants to strengthen their squat but also have limited time. the three day week and about 1hr sessions were perfect for my busy schedule. And the best part was that i increased my back squat from 225 to 250 and my front squat from 185 to 215! And that was after finishing the first 2 cycles of this program! (after 9 weeks)

Simple but very effective!
I would advice the Squat program to everyone who has hit a plateau with squats (both front and back), and decides to dedicate some solid weeks of training to building general strength for their weightlifting. Of course, it is not aimed at Elite weightlifters, but its flexible structure can be adapted from beginners to fairly advanced athletes. Since it is a 3 day/week program (plus one accessory work day), it is also adaptable to functional training or CrossFit.
It allowed me to reach very heavy weights, considering my own bodyweight :)
After successfully winning the London Olympics in 2012, I decided to devote myself to coaching and share my experience with athletes who are interested in lifting heavy weights correctly and safely.
I’ve been hosting seminars for ten years now, and teaching athletes from all around the world.
I've had a hand in guiding over 10,000 athletes on their weightlifting journey.
It's an honor to be able do this!
The knowledge I gained through seminars with athletes helped shape my PhD research. I’m proud to say that in 2025, I officially earned my PhD in Sport Science!
Just buy it and download. However you get it, make sure you follow the program faithfully and don't give up--it takes time to see results from a squat routine. But eventually you'll see an increase in muscle mass and strength, and a decrease in body fat percentage. Good luck!
What equipment is needed?
Barbell and Bumper Plates
Squat Rack

Shoulder Activation System

Den som designet dette kruset tenkte på både det nyttige, pedagogiske og morsomme. Materialene er veldig solide og varmebestandige, et tips er å kjenne på varmen før du drikker. Det kommer til å bli et fast inventar i bagen. Så absolutt et supert krus.
Great Program for CrossFit Athletes Focused on Strength Development
I recently started Weightlifting for Functional Fitness 2.0 and am currently in week 3, and so far it’s been excellent. Here’s what I like:
• Smart integration with CrossFit – The program blends well with CrossFit-style training and focuses on building strength without sacrificing conditioning or skill work.
• Structured and easy to follow – The layout is clear and straightforward, which makes it easy to stay consistent.
• Mobility and warm-ups included – Each session starts with warm-up and mobility work, which is often overlooked in other programs.
• Time-efficient – Sessions are compact and can usually be completed in about 1 to 1.5 hours, even when combined with a WOD or gymnastics work.
Even though I’m only in the early stages, the structure and progression already feel solid. Looking forward to seeing the results as I continue!
Purchased this program a few weeks ago. Just getting started and moving along..ha kind of! By following the program, it’s going to be link I’ve been missing out on. Excited today see how everything goes, wish me luck!
The pull and squat program improved my strength and movement patterns. At the end of the program I got new PRs in deadlift, back squat, front squat and overhead squat! I'm a 37 year old mom, and my legs have never looked better. Thank you Torokhtiy!
There are a lot of variations of snatch, some are familiar some are not. Different weight percentages helps me to being aware of technical issues and fix them.
The program is absolutely fantastic for anyone who wants to improve their lifting in a structured way while learning how to incorporate the gymnastics and metcon aspects into the trainning. I am on week 3 and gaining so much more confidence particularly in the snatch positions with each session. I really appreciate the warm-ups and mobility drills that always take care of the nagging little tight spots/help feel the body ready to lift. My only regret is that I have not started sooner!
An absolutely incredible program with a lot of accessory exercises to improve strength and technique. I scored new PRs for both Clean & Jerk and Snatch!
I've been truly enjoying myself with this program. It's only been two weeks, but it allows me to complement my regular CrossFit training very well. The exercises feel varied, well-picked and aim to better technique as well as strength.
