How To Choose The Right Torokhtiy Training Program?
Take the opportunity to learn more about what is available by using this guide!
This is a 5-week program with 5 training days per week. The program does not involve super heavy loads, but rather is aimed at building coordination, muscular feeling and optimizing the speed of the exercises.
In that regard, most of the training sessions are filled with different variations of jumping work. About 50% of the total training load is jumping and accessory exercises aimed at developing explosive force and speed skills.
LOOKING FOR FASTER SNATCHES AND CLEANS?
Speed Cycle is Perfect for Developing Speed and Explosiveness!
I started this program after the Beginner one. The program does not include snatch or clean with very high weights (most of the time below 80%) but many variations and complexes that helped me improving techinque and execution speed. For example, I feel I understand better how to accelerate and I move much more fluently and faster under the bar.

Speed Program boosted my confidence and made my current PRs light.
Haven't tested my new PR after completing speed program. But it has boosted my confidence and speed in getting under the bar. Now, my current PRs feel lighter. Excellent program! Many thanks to Torokhtiy and his team!
After successfully winning the London Olympics in 2012, I decided to devote myself to coaching and share my experience with athletes who are interested in lifting heavy weights correctly and safely.
I’ve been hosting seminars for ten years now, and teaching athletes from all around the world.
I've had a hand in guiding over 10,000 athletes on their weightlifting journey.
It's an honor to be able do this!
The knowledge I gained through seminars with athletes helped shape my PhD research. I’m proud to say that in 2025, I officially earned my PhD in Sport Science!
Will this training program help me to improve speed in weightlifting?
The answer is yes, 100%! Weightlifting is a sport that requires explosive power, and training programs that improve your ability to produce explosive power will also help you to become a faster weightlifter.
How frequently should I train?
This program is designed to be 5 days per week. We do not recommend training 4 days in a row. On your rest days, try to plan recovery activities, such as massages, or sauna.
Can I combine it with other types of training?
We do not recommend combining this program with other high-intensity workouts. You can add, at your discretion, recovery activities to develop flexibility and mobility, as well as short (up to 30 minutes) low-intensity cardio work (walking, rowing, swimming). Be sure to plan one full day off in each weekly cycle. The program's effectiveness largely depends on your responsibility when it comes to the training process, sleep, nutrition, and recovery. Train smart, get enough rest.
Is it necessary to train in weightlifting shoes?
We highly recommend you wear weightlifting shoes, also known as Lifters. Whether you’re a functional fitness athlete or a weightlifter, you will find them beneficial.
I am a coach and I want to use it for my gym / my clients.
This program is for personal use only. But if you want to use it for your gym and/or clients you can reach out to us via email to agree a commercial usage of the program. It will give you even more benefits.
I really like undulating programing, it always feels better for me to recover and gives bigger variation of movement concentration. Definetly a nice program that is easy to recover even as you have tough times at your work
Jag har tidigare tränat snatch och clean på amatör nivå. Sem bestämde jag mig för att köpa ett program och öå bara 3 veckor av programmet har jag fått tillbaka min motivation och utvecklats otroligt mycket i tekniken.
Jag rekommenderar alla som vill nå en nivå högre att köra detta programmet, det är roligt och utvecklande!
To be honest I wasn’t expecting much. I chooses this to break up my ply lifting trianing.
I actually really enjoyed the 1st session. It’s still aimed and mobility and strength for oly lifting.
Looking forward to completing the rest.
The cadence of sets vs reps is unlike anything I've done before. It does seem like not a lot of work is performed, but that's really how accurate your 1RM is. For me, I kept it lower due to training limitations, but still feels great. The one shortfall is i have no idea how often to train...4 days in a row? On on off? Biofeedback regulated? I cycled some upper body accessory work, and in 3 weeks, feel good progress in my squat pattern. Thanks T-dawg
Need an app to follow. Didn't do it as I had to download every exercise and then try and find to keep up with program. Im positive the program would have been excellent but too much work following it.

I have just completed week 2. So far, the training loads have been on the lighter side compared to what I am accustomed to, but I trust the overall progression of the program. Based on a brief review, it might have been beneficial to include more squat-focused work; however, this is largely a matter of personal preference.
