DESCRIPTION OF TRAINING PERIODS
DESCRIPTION OF TRAINING PERIODS
The olympic weightlifting schedule consists of 3 periods.
GENERAL PREP (week 1-4)
The main objectives 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 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.

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”
HOSTED OVER 300 SEMINARS WORLDWIDE
HOSTED OVER 300 SEMINARS WORLDWIDE
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 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.
No, MALE 2.0 is not a continuation or an add-on to MALE 1.0. They BOTH are standalone programs, but MALE 2.0 has been enhanced with new features and improvements.
I’ve already completed MALE 1.0. Should I take MALE 2.0 as well?
Definitely worth taking! MALE 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.
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.
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.
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!
I’ve been following Torokhtiy for a while and I finally decided to give it a chance. This one is the real deal folks, after every session you feel the “no gain, no pain”. I’m still on on it and I plan on finishing it. I can feel the improvement already.
