GYM REQUIRMENTS

First off- this is my second Moose program. Started with Hercules fit and moved here to get working towards some strongman goals I have.
All I have to say is Mitchell does it again. Volume, rep scheme, and use of RPE is perfect for me and my goals. Such a good overall program so far with great variability. This split feels less traditional than anything I’ve ever done. Doing upper and lowers the same day feels like I am doing a mini comp every day, minus the max effort.
That’s what I love most about this program so far. The specific training and giving a consistent effort, preparing you for what comps are like. The equipment requirements make it something I can do at home as well. I’m lucky enough to have a yoke, but you can absolutely sub exercises in and out as needed.
Huge fan of everything Mitchell does and will absolutely be looking into further programming after this.
Looks like a great program. I haven’t started it yet, so I will submit an updated review at a later date
Followed this program for 12 weeks leading into a comp and placed 1st. Only been competing in strongman for 7 months and everyone else was chasing 2nd. Got a USS Nationals qualification out of it and will be using this program to continue progressing. Don’t be discouraged in the initial ego hit you’ll take with lower RPE and higher reps, the strength will return with more capacity.
Amazing programming designed by a great strongman
The programming itself is very solid and I've enjoyed it, my only gripe is with some quality of life features missing on the Excel sheet itself
