Safe, effective, weight training for teens.

  • Resistance training

    Whether it is through body weight (BW), dumbbell (DB), or barbell (BB) lifts teen athletes can safely improve strength, speed, and size with the workouts and programs included below.

  • No more "bro splits"

    Leave the bro splits for the meat-heads and bodybuilders. Athletes need functional strength and to train sports-specific movements and muscle groups.

  • Leave the old definition of "high reps" behind

    Traditional “rep ranges” aren’t for athletes. When was the last time you stopped running after 8-12 steps or came out of the game after jumping 10 times?

  • Student-athletes can’t always follow a 5-day-per-week lifting plan, especially when in season.

  • Most novice lifters spend way to much time “resting” between sets.

  • No lifter can gain size and strength without increasing their weights and reps weekly.
