Filter Definitions:

  • Lift Vault Recommended: This is meant to help the person that doesn’t really know what workout plan they’re looking for. I tried to select a variety of different routines  that had high quality spreadsheets from a reliable creator that have been run successfully by others. This will probably be most useful to beginner lifts. There are tons of great programs that don’t have this label. It is meant to be an easy to digest shortlist of reliable programs.
  • Program Types: Basic categorization of the workout plan. A program can have multiple types. This is probably the least specific of all the filters.
  • Days per Week: Training days per week in each workout routine.
  • Weeks: The length of the workout plan measured in weeks.
  • Experience Level: General experience level of the program. “Beginner” and “Intermediate” are the most useful distinctions. If you select “Intermediate” you should probably go ahead and select “Advanced” too. That line is blurrier.
  • Periodization: A subjective take on how the program uses periodization. I tried to reserve “linear” in a relatively strict way, but in reality most programs are a combination of “linear” and “undulating.” “Block” periodization was a bit clearer. (Please read Greg Nuckols article on periodization to understand how one program can use multiple periodization methods).
  • Program Goal: Specific goals of the program. These are pretty subjective so I wouldn’t rely very heavily on this filter.
  • Focus Lift: Which lift is the focus of the program, if any. “All” essentially means that all lifts are trained.
  • Squat/Bench/Deadlift/Overhead Press Frequency: The number of times each week that a given lift is trained. Near variations (e.g. front squat, incline bench, deficit deadlift) are counted.
  • Meet Preparation: Whether this program could be reasonably run in preparation for a competition. This is generally synonymous with a “peaking” program. Any program that builds toward a new 1RM usually got marked as “yes.”
  • Creator: The original creator of the workout program and/or spreadsheet.
  • Accessories Included: Whether accessories are programmed or not. “No” means that you’ll need to program accessories yourself.
  • RPE: Whether a significant portion of the program relies upon using RPE or similar auto-regulation methods.
  • 1RM Percentage: Whether a significant portion of the lifting routine relies upon using a percentage of the athlete’s one rep max (1RM).

nSuns 5/3/1 Complete Program Collection (4 Day, 5 Day, Cap3, and More)

nSuns 5/3/1 is a linear progression powerlifting program that was inspired by Jim Wendler’s 5/3/1 strength program. It progresses on a weekly basis, making it well suited for late stage novice and early intermediate lifters. It is known for its challenging amount of volume. Those who stick with it tend to find great results from the additional work capacity.

Redditor /u/nsuns assembled a 5/3/1/ LP spreadsheet complete with 4, 5, and 6 day variants in addition to deadlift and squat specific workloads to help everyone get stronger.

Armstrong Pull Up Workout Program Spreadsheet

This is a spreadsheet for the Armstrong Pull Up Workout Program. It is a 5 day per week routine designed to improve an athlete’s pull up strength.

Armstrong Pull Up Workout Program Overview

  • Day 1: Complete 5 AMRAP sets
  • Day 2: Start with 1 pull up and rest 10 seconds. Then do 2 pull ups and rest 20 seconds, and so on, until failure. Then decrease reps by 1, reducing rest periods by 10 seconds per set along the way, until back down to 1 rep.
  • Day 3: Complete 3 sets of pull ups using three different grip variations (wide, neutral, supine). A supinated grip means the palms will be facing your body, similar to the grip used in a barbell curl.
  • Day 4: Select a training max (e.g. 5 reps) and complete as many sets as possible until failure.
  • Day 5: Complete 5 AMRAP sets

Greg Nuckols released 28 program variations through his site, Stronger by Science.

In addition to these programs, I strongly recommend you check out The Art & Science of Lifting and the free lifting guides he authored. He also co-authors the best monthly round-up of cutting edge research on strength, hypertrophy, and related subjects. It’s called MASS and it’s absolutely worth a look.
