This is a 12-week program with four training days per week.
This program includes a general and special warm-up routine that will help your muscles prepare for the activities ahead. Plus, every fourth workout is optional and features olympic lifts for even more metabolism-boosting benefits!
Each week of programming will help you build confidence in the basics and then move on to more advanced techniques.
CAN YOU STILL GET STRONGER AFTER 35?
Yes, With Master Strength!

TRAINING GOALS
It's perfect for Master's athletes who want to work on:
developing muscle strength;
extra training stimulus during the off-season;
looking for deloading from intensive Olympic lifting programs.
L’allenamento non ti produce lo stress necessario e percepibile alla massa muscolare
Si notano peggioramenti prestazionali ed estetici
Thanks for the feedback! We used classic linear overload progression in this program and gave some freedom to lifters to take in account age factor, taking into account the extended recovery duration of master athletes.
Considering the specifics of adaptation and recovery of the Master’s athletes (35+y.o.) the load structure is optimized:
1. The total volume is reduced;
2. Emphasis on high-quality warm-up and post-workout stretching;
3. The shock load in squats in pulls is minimized to reduce stress on the knees.
In case you fell you need more volume or intensity, you can customize you plan. Feel free to contact, if you need any help with this.

Best program for Master's Strength recover
After a very long period (40 years) of no practicing, I am back!

Fun and effective
The exercises are very varied, which makes the sessions enjoyable. In general the sessions take about 60-75 minutes, which is a good thing because you don't need a lot of time to do them.
For me it was great. It's been years since I've done bench presses. And my RM went up by 15 kg. As for the squat and deadlift, it went well but not as well as the bench press. But I improved my marks a bit.
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!
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.
Yes, Master Strength Program will be effective for both genders - male and female as well.
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.
The level of detail, the breakdown of the lifts into their respective parts, video demonstrations and sample sessions to follow all make an amazing eBook. Also timeframes are provided and it is clear how long it should take you to practice and understand these lifts. Definitely recommend!
IT'S Good for learning OLYMPİC Weightlifting as a beginner and advanced athlete
IT'S Good for learning OLYMPİC Weightlifting as a beginner, ı am a newbie,ı want to learn OLY LIFTS but there is so much ınformantion on the net,so all of them is confusing but this program is teachs how to learn oly lifts as a begginer, but there is some minus side of this program, training days are so less, ı wish training days would be more, rather than 3 days at least it would be 4 or 5 days better. I am an advanced athelte but newbie to oly lifts.
It is incredible the benefits of having for a couple of times per week half hour of this program. As an hybrid athlete I love to train strength but since four years I integrated the running (running about 40 minutes in 10k and 1:30 in 21k).Honestly, Athletic Performance and Front Rack mobility programs represent a paradigm shift for my training. Thanks!!
AP program changed my way of training. Activation, plyometrics, power and pure strength are now combined and structured with sense. The program is challenging in particular for introducing Olympic movements. Then you see the benefit, how you fill, the power, and ask yourself how it's possible you have trained for so many years without them.
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.
I bought this programm because I do a crossfit and not everything in weightlifting part is explain well. My mobility is really bad, so I decided bought this programm and now, I am in a first part of this programm and I found some really good exercises for each mobility and lifts. Everything has sense and fits perfect from one to other step. I now that my next programm will be from you again.
Very nice and easy, but effective manual for lifters :)
I have purchased several of Torokhtiy's programs. All of which were well done. However, this particular program I was unable to read the instructions due to the poor quality. Thank you for the opportunity to express my opinion.
Hi, Michael! Thanks a lot for your feedback. Sorry to hear there was a problem with the quality of instructions in the program.
Please reach out to us at direct@torokhtiy.com with a screenshot of the issue, so we can fix it and send you a version of the program with proper quality.
I like this program. Its structure is good, and it has just the right amount of volume for a master athlete. After the workouts, I haven’t felt overly fatigued, and I always look forward to the next training session. After training with the program for three weeks, I actually had to jump to the second-to-last week of the program because I was preparing for my first weightlifting meet. The competition went well, and afterward I returned to my normal routine and continued from where I left off.
Most Usefull Athletic Performans Workout of All Areas.
I am a boxer,ı have been looking workout programs for best suites me ı did a lot of resarch,ı deciced to comlex oly lifts , main litfs (bench,squat,dead etc) and plyometrics . But there is a so much exercises list on the net,its hard to find which one is good for taking. Then ı found the Torokithy Athletics Performans, its'a spectacular wokrout program. Thnx to Torokithy. Thank you so much sir.
A bottle for all occasions should be large enough to keep drinks for an entire training day, thermodynamically reversible enough to keep the drink cold for up to 6 hours, solid enough to withstand shock if an accident should happen, a handle to grip, easy to drink from and pretty to look at. All of these criteria are met by Thoroktiy's drinking bottle, and it is the best thing any drinking bottle may be.
Cakal som od tohto programu viac, chýbala mi tam špecifická rozcvička ako pri ostatných programoch.
Hey!
Sorry to hear that - version 1 of this program didn`t include this section yet, this version was released long time ago in 2018 and we started to implement special warmup block later.
