GOOD TO GREAT

Victor Hugo - BJJ black belt, world champ and big-time badass - was looking for an extra edge. The guys his size (and bigger) were strong, but they gassed out quick. So we did what we do best: we turned a beast into THE beast.

A killer combo of strongman training and hardcore conditioning took Hugo’s already insane grip strength and engine to sensei-levels.

“THE TRAINING HAS HELPED ME BECOME STRONGER & BETTER CONDITIONED TRANSLATING TO MORE SUCCESS ON THE MAT.”

FAQ's

Check our frequently asked questions to maximise your gains. Learn from others who’ve walked the path before you.

How do I begin, is there a 'Day 1’?

Jump right in and start today.

Our programs are dynamic, continuously evolving in 16-week rolling cycles, driven by athlete data and cutting-edge insights. There's no need to worry about finding a specific 'Day 1'; you'll begin wherever the program is currently. Embrace the absence of a formal start, as it means you're receiving the most current training. Your body will adapt, and results will naturally follow.

If you're new to training and need a solid foundation, begin with Bedrock before moving to this program when you're ready.

For limited equipment or barbell concerns, consider Lean & Able until you are better equipped to attack this program.

HOW DOES DRAGON SLAYER CATER TO THE NEEDS OF COMBAT SPORTS?

CAN I EXTEND MY COMPETITIVE FIGHTING INTO MY MID-30S AND BEYOND?

CAN I BENEFIT FROM THIS TRAINING IF I LACK EQUIPMENT OR HAVE AN EXISTING INJURY?

Yes, success is still achievable with our program. the 'Swap Exercise' feature in the TrainHeroic app allows you to select tailored alternative movements, including bodyweight exercises and different equipment options.

Our Power Athlete coaches are here daily to offer expert guidance; feel free to ask questions in the Activity Stream within the app.

If a nagging injury is impeding your progress, we recommend our Movement Health Courses to help you get back on track.

ARE ALL OF THE MOVEMENTS AND TRAINING DAYS MANDATORY - WHAT IF I NEED TO SKIP A DAY?

To truly maximize the benefits of the training, it's best to complete all the prescribed movements and training days. However, we understand that life can throw you a curveball from time to time. The key is consistency. If you find yourself pressed for time on a particular day, set a timer for 15 minutes and do as much as you can.

If you consistently struggle to follow the program as prescribed day in and day out, we recommend switching to Grindstone. This program is specifically designed to help you strike that balance between training and life's demands.

Can I change the program halfway through, and what happens when it ends?

If you're halfway into the program and find it's not the right fit for you, no problem at all. We can easily and swiftly switch you to a more suitable program, hassle-free. Just drop us an email Training@PowerAthleteHQ.com

As for the program's end, there's no formal conclusion. Our programs are designed in 16-week cycles, each crafted to drive adaptation and foster athleticism, continually supporting you in your journey training journey.
