The 12-week weightlifting routine for women consists of 3 mesocycles (4 weeks each). This program is designed for a full comprehensive preparation for Olympic weightlifting competitions. Certain goals and tasks are set for each period in order to bring the athlete up to the peak of their preparedness for the competition, step-by-step.
Weight lifting plan for women consists of 3 periods.
GENERAL PREP (week 1-4)
The main objectives of the female olympic weightlifting are improving the general and supporting physical development of athletes, increasing the functional systems’ capacity, various technique drills, and working out the elements and phases of competition exercises.
SPECIAL PREP (week 5-8)
This period of the weightlifting program for women is intended to provide a high level of preparedness for competition activity by increasing the amount of special preparatory and competition exercises. The training program is focused on the development of power-speed skills, coordination, and special endurance, building on the foundation created during the previous period. More attention is paid to working out the competition technique.
COMPETITION (week 9-12)
The main task here is to maintain and improve the level of special preparedness. Plenty of single high-intensity reps in SNATCH and CLEAN&JERK together with gradually reduced volume in other special exercises helps to bring the athlete to their peak for competition day.

MEET YOUR COACH
MEET YOUR COACH
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!
This strength training program for women 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 womens weight lifting plan 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 weight lifting routine for women 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.
What equipment do I need for the weight training routine for woman?
No, WOMEN 2.0 is not a continuation or an add-on to WOMEN 1.0. They BOTH are standalone programs, but WOMEN 2.0 has been enhanced with new features and improvements.
I’ve already completed WOMEN 1.0. Should I take WOMEN 2.0 as well?
Definitely worth taking! WOMEN 2.0 has some cool new features and improvements.
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.
Fantastic work and real good layout, live see video and all information he explain to understand and learn how Pro weightlifters train recovery and what it takes , this is a outstanding product
Very good detail and accompanying videos, I would highly recommend starting the masterclass as it will improve your lifting, no matter what stage of training you're in, I had issues with learning the Snatch and also periodised programming and the steps necessary to full mastery, the program cleared that out for me and allowed me to focus on my lifting.
Concern About Advertisements in Paid Training Videos
I recently purchased your fitness training program, which includes access to video lessons on YouTube.
However, while watching the videos, I keep seeing advertisements appearing during playback.
Since this is a paid program, I believe the videos should be ad-free. It feels unreasonable to have ads interrupting the lessons that I’ve already paid for.
Could you please look into this issue and let me know if there’s a way to watch the videos without ads?
If an ad-free version or an alternative viewing platform is available, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.
Thank you for your attention and understanding.
I look forward to your reply.
Best regards,
Hi Weiche,
Thanks for sharing your feedback!
We just want to clarify: monetization is disabled on our side for all training videos. We never intend to show you any advertising. If you’re seeing ads, it’s most likely due to YouTube’s automatic ad settings, which unfortunately we can’t influence.
We’ve placed all workout videos directly on our website and updated the links in Mobility Flow program. You should have already received the new, updated version of the Mobility Flow program by email. Now you can follow all workouts without any ads.
We also reached out to you directly on your email, please check your inbox. If you haven’t seen it yet, we’ll be happy to resend the information or help you access the workouts without interruptions.
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!
Easy to apply to training and well balanced. I like that it works the full body
A
PROGRAM FOR BEGINNERS Akpınar
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.
