I ran this for about 12 weeks when it was in beta. I made really good gains on 8-12 rep maxes only running the hypertrophy blocks, but damn it was a lot of work. Had me doing things like 7 sets of 10 deadlifts, the first set being a 10 Rpe with back off sets. I had to take a break for a while, but now I’m back on it. Only a week in, but looks like it’s come a long way and there way more options and improvements. The app is super easy to use and has everything laid out very nicely. I really like Chads style of programming with the weeks ramping up in difficulty quickly but deloading fairly often. The first weeks are nice and easy, making me want more, but those last weeks in the blocks are brutal and I need the deload badly. The program overview is nice too. Gives a nice clear look at long term goals.
JTS views high bar as a great developmental/hypertrophy exercise for the low bar squat. You are in a hypertrophy phase so that is the priority at this point in time.
Thank you and merry Christmas 🙏. One question: what’s the difference between powerlifting and powerbuilding towards the last 10 weeks leading up to a meet?
@@Ratchetti yeah it looks good. Company is by Stefi Cohen they have powerlifting, Performace (includes olympic lifting), HWPO (Matt Fraser’s program) build (bodybuilding) program. It is pricey at $40/month though
Hi Sir, I started cardio, HIIT & weights 1.5 years ago progressively. Only been doing weights for 6 months. Doing it at home with dumbbells. Used to have an instructor but he started a new job with a gym. I have gone from 125kg to 89kg but am no longer losing weight. Want to find a structured approach for home exercise to start losing again. Also, I am not sure if I am a beginner or intermediate. I have been doing weights, but do not know really why I do what I do... What program should I get if my goal is to lose weight? And do not want to go to a gym.
maybe your metabolism slowed down, Derek has a video about this ua-cam.com/video/2PQvCjEt7wY/v-deo.html to put it short: you need to gradually increase your metabolism by slowly increasing calorie intake (reverse dieting)
I have zero idea what to do in the gym. An app would be perfect to fix that but this app probably isn’t for me due to it being gear’d towards body building and power lifting. Do you recommend a strength training app? I’m just looking to lose some weight and getting stronger. Thanks in advance
Highly recommend either Hypertrophy Coach or Ganbaru Method from Eugene Teo. You'll learn a lit from either, but probably more from Hypertrophy Coach. It is mainly geared towards bodybuilding, but is still good for beginners. If you think it's too much for what you're looking for then Renaissance Periodization's UA-cam channel is also a great resource for info.
No wise man actually said this, instead they don't judge people on the way they look and are open to listening to others and base it on their background and experience. In short, they have critical thinking skills, something that you don't have.
Sorry about the audio, recording got messed up and didn't realize until I was editing.
All good! Don't worry

WOw, it seems to be a really well-developed App with very useful and smart features. Great review and very good job to JTS
I've been looking for a good review on this and I'm glad you got around to this one. Love all your reviews,awesome job!!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Just got this. Only have 3 days to train due to my career and family life(married with 4 kids). I’m too lazy to learn to program so this is super nice
Awesome, I have been waiting for this :)! Keep up the great work!
Speed up to 2x
Hey, will you be doing a review of Stronger by Science Training Templates? Loving your reviews and would be great to hear your thoughts on that one!

Yes, that is what I figured.

Can you review the Hybrid Performance method app as well as fitness culture?
Didn't know Hybrid had one! Have you heard if it's any good?
@@Ratchetti yeah it looks good. Company is by Stefi Cohen they have powerlifting, Performace (includes olympic lifting), HWPO (Matt Fraser’s program) build (bodybuilding) program. It is pricey at $40/month though
How is it?

Good stuff. Review jujis builder or groundbreaker next!!
Are you planning on reviewing one of thor's power programs? Great vid!
Thank you!
Can you review mind pump workout templet?
Considering this is more focused on power building/lifting, would it be better than Eugene teos app for building strength.
If your primary goal is strength, then yes.

Anyone has mod
sorry to ask but...do you even lift?
Has anyone ever scored 10/10?
Not yet
As a wise man once said:
