What is a powerlifting program?

A powerlifting program is designed to improve an athlete's one rep max in the squat, bench press, and deadlift. The main goal of a powerlifting program is to increase an athlete's powerlifting total.

Jonnie Candito’s 6 week program is a powerlifting peaking program. It consists of several short training blocks dedicated to muscular conditioning, hypertrophy, strength, linear weight increases, acclimation to heavy weights, intensity, and testing. It is held in especially high regard for improving the one rep max of the squat, though it programs all three lifts.

Note: Novice lifters will progress more quickly using the Candito Linear Progression Program. For a deadlift specific program, see newly the released Candito Deadlift Program.
