Weightlifting Program 20 Weeks

The 20-week program outlines a strength training routine divided into 4 phases: volume/hypertrophy (weeks 1-4), strength (weeks 5-8), power (weeks 9-12), and competition prep (weeks 13-16). Each phase focuses on different exercises and rep/set schemes, gradually increasing the weight and decreasing reps over time. The final competition phase (weeks 17-20) utilizes heavy singles at 85-95% to find 1RM lifts for competition. The routine is performed 3-5 days per week and incorporates Olympic weightlifting movements like cleans, snatches, and jerks along with assistance exercises.
