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.

Excellent for CrossFit WEIGHTLIFTING
I'm new at CrossFit and Weightlifting. This program is excellent for starters and others to learn techniques from videos (but also it is important to have weightlifting trainer to fix technique issues) and start to learn new movements/excercises and how split weight loads. I'm right now at 3week, but I like it! :)

WEIGHTLIFTING FOR FUNCTIONAL FITNESS
Hi, thanks for the program! I've started it and I'm at my second week. As I am rather old, or let me say 67 years young, the weights I use are not heavy. However I make all the exercises for the session. And as I usually make a group WL session per week, your sessions are 2 per week, not 3. That's all for now and thanks again. Best regards, Aneliya

WL4FF
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. 💪
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”
HOSTED OVER 300 SEMINARS WORLDWIDE
HOSTED OVER 300 SEMINARS WORLDWIDE
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!
What can you expect from adding weightlifting exercises to the Olympic lifting program?
First, you will see an increase in your overall strength and power. Additionally, you will be able to better target specific muscle groups with these barbell workouts. Finally, you may also see a slight increase in your cardio endurance as well.
How to incorporate WL4FF program into your weekly WOD periodization?
If you have few types of training (Weightlifting, Metabolic, Gymnastics) we recommend planning weightlifting as a first block, but of course, it is up to you and depends on your personal goals.
Oleksiy Torokhtiy. He is a professional weightlifter and the author of the WL4FF program.
What exercises you will perform during the functional weight lifting program?
The program are filled with push jerks, hang power snatches, power snatches, squat cleans, push jerks, snatches.
Is WL4FF 1.0 a prerequisite for WL4FF 2.0?
No, WL4FF 2.0 is not a continuation or an add-on to WL4FF 1.0. They BOTH are standalone programs, but WL4FF 2.0 has been enhanced with new features and improvements.
I’ve already completed WL4FF 1.0. Should I take WL4FF 2.0 as well?
Definitely worth taking! WL4FF 2.0 has some cool new features and improvements.
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.
I am a boxer,ı have been looking workout programs for best suites me ı did a lot of resarch,ı deciced to comlex oly lifts , main litfs (bench,squat,dead etc) and plyometrics .

Thank you so much sir.
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
