6-week training program (3 sessions per week) designed to enhance overhead lifting techniques and stability for Olympic weightlifting and functional fitness.
Designed by an Olympian and approved by TOP professional athletes.
Been wanting a program to help strengthen the overhead position and I've gotten through the 1st session and it feels good. I enjoy the different variations of workouts and its a different pace from me normally working on the snatch and CJ. Definitely looking forward to the rest of the program.

Amazing for snatch and jerk lockout
This program focuses on various overhead as well as core exercises to enable you to have a crisp 3rd pull and lockout. I recommend combining it with a light weightlifting program as weightlifting for functional fitness.

Strong and confident
I started this program after the speed cycle to strengthen my overhead positions, and completed the first 4 weeks. Volume and intensity are contained therefore I decided to add an extra technical session. I also had a small test after week 3 with snatch and clean&jerk at around 90% of my max and I was impressed by how my catch (in the snatch) and jerk improved. Looking forward for another test at the end of the program :)
With over two decades of Olympic weightlifting experience, I know how small details can influence your lifting game. And I can say for sure:
“Big results consists of small details”

I never was able to do a proper snatch because I had fear of going under the bar. This program helped me improve in the technique and build confidence doing the snatch. I was also able to increase the weight. Watch my videos here. https://www.instagram.com/jasonjustlifts/reel/DYUyUqVOkY4/
I made good progress with the lifts in terms of stability and execution. Highly recommended if you already have some experience in the lifts but still have a lot to solidify.

I used the Athletic Performance program to prepare for my fourth triathlon. My muscular endurance improved drastically. I earned a personal best time and third place in my division, my first time placing. Thank you Torokhtiy!
I took advantage of the 2-for-1 promotion and started with the Beginners 2.0 program. I found it excellent; I'm a week away from finishing it and will start the Snatch Masterclass program soon. I'll let you know shortly.That's all for now, thank you for following.
I just wanted to say how impressed I am with the MALE WEIGHTLIFTING 2.0 + MOBILITY FOR WEIGHTLIFTING programmes.
The structure is excellent, and the level of detail — especially the explanations and videos — makes everything very clear and easy to follow. I’m currently on Week 2 of Male 2.0, and I can already feel a noticeable improvement in my confidence and consistency with the lifts.
The volume is challenging but very well programmed, and I can tell that it’s building a strong foundation for future progress.
I’m genuinely enjoying the process and learning a lot along the way. I’ll definitely be looking into purchasing more programmes in the future (especially the Squat or Overhead Mobility programmes), and I’d also be very interested in attending one of your seminars.
Thank you again for such a high-quality product — it really shows the level of thought and experience behind it.
I am the type of person who never buys programs as they seemed so basic/simple, I was already doing them. This program is not that at all. Very in depth, easy to follow, and provides results. Well done!
