Directions: **MAKE A COPY OF THIS SHEET TO EDIT IT**

This is a basic intermediate Powerlifting hypertrophy program. Read the relevant blog post in RepOne Academy before you begin. Feel free to add upper and lower accessory movements after your main barbell work. Accessories should not be barbell variations, and should be three sets of 8-12 reps.

The slowest velocity of the set must be within +- 0.02 of the target velocity. Otherwise, increase or decrease weight accordingly. A set contributes toward the sessions total set count as long as it's less than 0.05 m/s faster than the target velocity. Rest as much as needed between each cluster set.

For safety purposes, sets for generalized programs like this are capped at 1 RIR, and an individual set should not approach absolute maximal effort.
