Unbreakable Your Ready-for-anything Total-body Plan

"Looking big, strong, and durable is one thing. Being big, strong, and durable is another. Can you push, pull, or carry something incredibly heavy? How well do you sprint, jump, or climb-and do you have the stamina to keep it up for a sustained period of time? Instead of training for the pump, use this program to take your conditioning to a whole new level."

Battle-ready

Build a body that's more than just a big slab of meat. Our three-day, ready-for-anything program (next page) is the ultimate combo of traditional lifts, hybrid modifications, and endurance challenges. Trim the extra fat - and keep it off - with our lean-eating meal plan, which is specifically designed for steady weight loss. And for your monthly dose of inspiration, check out a dude who lost 40 kilos - and increased his squat by 215%.

HOW IT WORKS

This routine is built around foundational lifts, but with twists that are less conventional. Each day includes a unique challenge to break up a routine workout.

In Day 1, battle ropes test your endurance, burning up your shoulders, arms, and even your lungs. Day 2 you'll use the sled, a device that'll put your entire body on blast. Finally, Day 3 is arguably the most gut-wrenching: Front-racked hang cleans to walking lunges and trap-bar deadlifts with farmer walks will expose and strengthen any weak spots.

To be ready for anything, you need to take your body to the brink of failure and beyond. With this plan, three days are all you need.
