This is a 12-week program with four training days per week.
This program includes a general and special warm-up routine that will help your muscles prepare for the activities ahead. Plus, every fourth workout is optional and features olympic lifts for even more metabolism-boosting benefits!
Each week of programming will help you build confidence in the basics and then move on to more advanced techniques.
CAN YOU STILL GET STRONGER AFTER 35?
Yes, With Master Strength!
TRAINING GOALS
It's perfect for Master's athletes who want to work on:
developing muscle strength;
extra training stimulus during the off-season;
looking for deloading from intensive Olympic lifting programs.
L’allenamento non ti produce lo stress necessario e percepibile alla massa muscolare
Si notano peggioramenti prestazionali ed estetici
Thanks for the feedback! We used classic linear overload progression in this program and gave some freedom to lifters to take in account age factor, taking into account the extended recovery duration of master athletes.
Considering the specifics of adaptation and recovery of the Master’s athletes (35+y.o.) the load structure is optimized:
1. The total volume is reduced;
2. Emphasis on high-quality warm-up and post-workout stretching;
3. The shock load in squats in pulls is minimized to reduce stress on the knees.
In case you fell you need more volume or intensity, you can customize you plan. Feel free to contact, if you need any help with this.

Best program for Master's Strength recover
After a very long period (40 years) of no practicing, I am back!
This program is the best suited for me.

Fun and effective
The exercises are very varied, which makes the sessions enjoyable. In general the sessions take about 60-75 minutes, which is a good thing because you don't need a lot of time to do them.
For me it was great. It's been years since I've done bench presses. And my RM went up by 15 kg. As for the squat and deadlift, it went well but not as well as the bench press. But I improved my marks a bit.
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.
We do not recommend combining this program with other high-intensity workouts. You can add, at your discretion, recovery activities to develop flexibility and mobility, as well as short (up to 30 minutes) low-intensity cardio work (walking, rowing, swimming). Be sure to plan one full day off in each weekly cycle. The program's effectiveness largely depends on your responsibility when it comes to the training process, sleep, nutrition, and recovery. Train smart, get enough rest.
Is it necessary to train in weightlifting shoes?
We highly recommend you wear weightlifting shoes, also known as Lifters. Whether you’re a functional fitness athlete or a weightlifter, you will find them beneficial.
Started applying the drills 1 week ago and am amazed by the extensive detail of the mobility procedures. Only change I would suggest is to have a separate specific platform for starting the videos instead of having to start them individually every time.
I have dipped my toes into olympic lifting for a while. Finally I have a structured program which I feel I can run through a couple of times. I feel my techniques have improved and actually my squat (back and front) have improved significantly by more than 15%. Additionally my trunk is much more stable and I am more aware of how I move during the lifts. Really recommend this for everyone who loves throwing around barbells.
This is the club where we unite as a community,
learn to overcome our weaknesses, and develop ou...
I appreciate you providing me the chance to learn from you.
Additionally, this club helps us become more confident. I'm becoming better, and I have a lot more confidence now than I had.
I develop my discipline. I'm becoming encouraged by this club since we're supporting one another.
I'm currently reading the Snatch master class PDF. I'm having a great time with a practical.
I always value your counsel and advice. Your tiny hints could help us improve our lift. And it’s improving a lot.
You might need to work with lower % the first week, the power exercises squat, deadlift and pulls are not that frequent
You may need to add some auxiliary work, and maybe add some technique the weeks that you don’t snatch
I am enjoying that I feel fresh
Hi! Thanks for your feedback.
Any training plan is not dogma - just an action manual.
So it is smart to adapt it to individual needs.
It's the program that made me more Interested with Torokhtiy. I am starting OLY WOD after my vacation. I want to give this program My full attention rather than trying to look for a Gym during my vacation.
I started actively weightlifting 4 years ago. After 2 years I started to feel uncomfortable in my lower back and suffered from tight hips. I stopped for a year due to other life events and to try something different. After a long hiatus I missed the feel of getting under the bar again but couldn’t find a program I felt would be suitable for me. Until I found WL4FF, the exercises really help avoid any low back pain or tight hips, and I’m feeling great after each lifting session. If you have experience Weightlifting you will definitely enjoy this program. 💪
The group chat helps me stay motivated and focused on my goals
I find the form-checks and the coaches’ comments very helpful
for improving my technique and learning by watching the advice given to others.
It’s inspiring to interact with Oleksiy. He’s always available,
and I really like the way he corrects and explains things, making everything clearer!!!
I’d definitely recommend joining Torokhtiy Club,
especially for those who want to improve not only as athletes but also as coaches.
Being in touch with various athletes and coaches and seeing many mistakes and visual corrections made by Oleksiy and Sergey.
The answers and explanations are great, simple and user friendly.
It is very cool when Oleksiy motivates everyone and praises or corrects.
Feedback on lifts are very helpful, makes me understand more and see mistake myself as well.
