About The Creator

Hi, I'm Oleksiy Torokhtiy. My name is one of the top names in weightlifting today – and for good reason!

My BACK SQUAT is an impressive 320 kg.

I’m looking forward to sharing what I’ve learned and helping you to bring your squat up to the next level with this brutal Squat Program!

WHO IS IT FOR

Group of people in a fitness or training facility with whiteboards and motivational posters (Torokhtiy Weightlifting)

WHO IS IT FOR

For lifters who are drawn to the classic 20-rep “breathing squat” challenge.

  • A hardgainer / skinny lifter chasing real size
  • A late beginner or intermediate with solid squat form who wants a focused “shock” block
  • Someone who wants simple, structured training (one main set, clear progression, no fluff)
  • An athlete building a strength base who also wants mental toughness
  • Anyone who wants to prove they can stay under the bar and finish 20

CAN YOU HANDLE A 20-REP SQUAT SET?

If You Are Excited, you are in the right place!

HERE IS WHAT YOU’LL DO

HERE IS WHAT YOU’LL DO

  1. Build quads with the set that forces growth
    One hard 20-rep squat set delivers the tension + fatigue your legs can’t ignore.
  2. Use “breathing squat” pacing to finish clean reps
    After rep 10–12, you’ll take controlled breaths at the top and keep moving without breaking form.
  3. Progress without wrecking recovery
    Two main days drive the work, an optional day adds extra only if you’re ready, plus a deload to keep momentum.

STRENGTH PROGRAM
Kuba Biały
Went through week one before planned break to feel it out

So I went through the first week before I got on my 2 week break, mostly to feel out the program and make my mind on it.

So, as of now I can say that I do enjoy the volume and the general idea of the plan. It’s very well structured (though I will never be a huge fan of bench presses) and I can clearly see the potential. One note - if you plan to do it with Oly lifting in mind the optional day IS NOT optional for you.

Overall i highly recommend it to build strength foundations regardless of how experienced you are.

Snatch technique improved

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/

Great Program for Beginners

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.

OVERHEAD STRENGTH & STABILITY

Over Head Strength

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.
