6-week training program (3 sessions per week) designed to enhance overhead lifting techniques and stability for Olympic weightlifting and functional fitness.
Designed by an Olympian and approved by TOP professional athletes.
I started this program after the speed cycle to strengthen my overhead positions, and completed the first 4 weeks. Volume and intensity are contained therefore I decided to add an extra technical session. I also had a small test after week 3 with snatch and clean&jerk at around 90% of my max and I was impressed by how my catch (in the snatch) and jerk improved. Looking forward for another test at the end of the program :)

Great lectures!
Very useful program to increase overhead strength and stability. I reccomend these lectures for weightlifting and CrossFit!
With over two decades of Olympic weightlifting experience, I know how small details can influence your lifting game. And I can say for sure:
“Big results consists of small details”

The program is tailored for Olympic weightlifters, functional fitness athletes, cross-training enthusiasts, and any other sports athletes integrating Olympic lifts into their routines.
What specific issues does the program address, and how can it benefit me?
This program targets common challenges such as frequent misses with heavy weights, trouble locking out arms during snatches, discomfort or pain in shoulders and upper back, incorrect bar path, and feelings of insecurity during lifts. By tackling these issues, it aims to enhance overhead lifting techniques, stability, and overall performance, while also reducing the risk of injury.
What makes this program unique compared to others on the market?
What sets this program apart is its holistic approach to overhead lifting, addressing not only strength and stability but also core strength and shoulder mobility. With a structured six-week plan and exercises designed by an Olympian and endorsed by top athletes, it offers a comprehensive solution to improve lifting skills and reach peak performance.

The program incorporates targeted exercises and techniques to develop power and control in overhead positions, focusing on improving stability and confidence during lifts.
What kind of progress can one expect to see after completing the program, and how long does it typically take to notice improvements?
You can expect to see improvements in overhead strength, stability, and overall lifting performance over the course of the six-week program. Results may vary depending on individual effort and consistency, but many athletes report noticeable improvements within the first few weeks of training.
I am a coach and I want to use it for my gym / my clients.
This program is for personal use only. But if you want to use it for your gym and/or clients you can reach out to us via email to agree a commercial usage of the program. It will give you even more benefits.
I have purchased several of Torokhtiy's programs. All of which were well done. However, this particular program I was unable to read the instructions due to the poor quality. Thank you for the opportunity to express my opinion.
Hi, Michael! Thanks a lot for your feedback. Sorry to hear there was a problem with the quality of instructions in the program.
Please reach out to us at direct@torokhtiy.com with a screenshot of the issue, so we can fix it and send you a version of the program with proper quality.
I like this program. Its structure is good, and it has just the right amount of volume for a master athlete. After the workouts, I haven’t felt overly fatigued, and I always look forward to the next training session. After training with the program for three weeks, I actually had to jump to the second-to-last week of the program because I was preparing for my first weightlifting meet. The competition went well, and afterward I returned to my normal routine and continued from where I left off.
Most Usefull Athletic Performans Workout of All Areas.

A bottle for all occasions should be large enough to keep drinks for an entire training day, thermodynamically reversible enough to keep the drink cold for up to 6 hours, solid enough to withstand shock if an accident should happen, a handle to grip, easy to drink from and pretty to look at. All of these criteria are met by Thoroktiy's drinking bottle, and it is the best thing any drinking bottle may be.
Cakal som od tohto programu viac, chýbala mi tam špecifická rozcvička ako pri ostatných programoch.
Hey!
Sorry to hear that - version 1 of this program didn`t include this section yet, this version was released long time ago in 2018 and we started to implement special warmup block later.
Sin un ojo que vea los movimientos, se complica mucho. Envié el vídeo final, tal como pone el manual y no me respondieron. También había planteado previamente alguna duda por mensaje privado y nunca contestan (paso más de un mes).
Hi there! We appreciate your feedback. We searched everywhere but didn’t find any messages from you.
Could you please send an email to direct@torokhtiy.com with info on where you submitted your videos?
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!
I bought one of Torokhtiy’s programs which have been very good for an over all training. It’s not the last time I’ll buy programs from Torokhtiy! <3
