Powerlifting To Win was a site dedicated to the sport of powerlifting. It became particularly well-known for its review of different powerlifting programs and articles dedicated to various aspects of programming theory.

Unfortunately, sometime in 2022 the site went offline. It may come back online at some point – I’m really not sure.

I’m not sure if it’ll come back or not, so I wanted to collect a bunch of links to archived versions of its most popular articles so they’re still easy to access.
