STRONGER.

More than just a program. An entire year of smart, progressive and effective training.

We all want to get stronger, look better and be more fit. We want the process to be simple and effective with smart coaching and training techniques along the way. Lastly we want the process to be fun, with varied training styles pushing us to consistent progress.

The trouble is finding the right training program for you…

If you start shopping around for online training programs you’ll see a lot of programs:

Promising fast and easy results that are NOT realistic for the majority of people
Being written by people who have no real experience working with people
Written with no consideration towards longevity and injury prevention
With no option for modification of movements based on your past prior injury history

We really just want an intelligent, effective program to reach new levels of strength and fitness. What we end up with is frustration, confusion and never reaching any of the goals that were promised in the first place.

We’ve been there. We’ve been through the fads, jumped from program to program with a lack of long term progress and gathered a bunch of injuries along the way. We take a firm stance against these types of programs and want to help ensure that you don’t have the same experience along the way.

Introducing Dan and Kiefer…

Between the two of us:

We’ve coached thousands of athletes of all levels from the average Joe and Jane up to the olympic and professional level
We have 20+ years of training experience
Have division 1 collegiate sporting backgrounds and state and national titles in strength sports
We have advanced degrees including a doctorate in physical therapy
We practice what we preach every day of the week…

With this being said we'd like to share with you the 3 keys to successful online programs...

1) Consistent hard work with with long term goals in mind

When you’re just getting started, it’s easy to stay motivated because results come easy. After a while though, PRs are few and far between and that internal motivation can start to fade. You try to push harder but the results just don’t come. You get bored, need another fix, and think to yourself, “what’s the next program?”

Eventually you hit a plateau

Here’s the issue with typical training programs, they usually have a limited lifespan between 1 and 3 months. People will start on a program, make small progress and then move right onto the next one.

We call that program hopping...

Results don’t come that fast. If you ask anyone who’s built an appreciable amount of strength, size, fitness or athleticism you can be certain they didn’t do it jumping from program to program every few months. Getting the results you desire takes dedicated time and effort towards established goals. Then, it takes consistent programming to start making progress towards those goals. Program hopping simply doesn’t accomplish this. You need a program with established goals and a rock solid long term strategy to achieve success.

2) Science Based Principles and Great Coaching

These days, anyone can simply write a program and throw it out on the internet. Good programming is something that takes years of training to learn how to do. It also takes years of actually coaching real people to learn how they respond to the program and how to achieve the best results. This takes years of refinement.

It seems like most of the programs out there are written by a young coach who believes they found “the perfect solution” to lifelong fitness, health and wellness. Maybe they found a good program that works for them, but that doesn’t mean it will work for the rest of humanity. Anyone that promises something that’s too good to be true is probably promising exactly that.

Good programming should be based around experience and what the latest science is saying is actually effective, and not just what the internet says is popular at the moment.

3) A Community of Like Minded Individuals

The other vital component usually lacking in generic exercise programming is community. Community is what keeps you engaged, motivated and having fun with your training. Ask some of the best athletes in the world the secret to their success and they’ll tell you that having the right training partners and team makes all the difference in your success. It provides that extra bit of motivation to go for that big new PR. It gives you the daily motivation to get through those workouts that feel like a grind. It provides the support to keep you going for the long haul so you can achieve those long term gains you want so much.

With the Champion STRONGER Strength Training Program you'll be training among people with similar goals all striving for the same thing. It's like having a group of training partners working towards the exact same goal with you every day.

Led by Dan Pope, DPT, CSCS and Kiefer Lammi, CSCS, the Champion STRONGER Strength Training Club is an intense and detailed monthly training program. It is a natural step up from Champion STRONG, our flagship training program.

Both Dan and Kiefer are experienced coaches with backgrounds in powerlifting, olympic lifting, Strongman, and Crossfit. Both are part of the expert team of Physical Therapists and Strength Coaches at Champion PT and Performance where we help hundreds of real people get real results.

Each month will build on the previous and each new training phase will present with different themes and challenges to continue to push your training limits and motivate you to crush your goals.

Overview of the Phases of Champion STRONGER

Champion Stronger was designed to take you through four uniquely challenging training phases, each with a distinct goal and progression. Each month within a phase builds on the previous, and each phase has a slightly different focus than the last so that you continue to make progress for the entire year, while still enjoying the novelty of new training stimuli.

Phase 1 (Months 1-3) Overview

Phase 1 is designed to be a dedicated strength block with an emphasis on building the back squat, bench press and conventional deadlift. There are weekly increases to volume and intensity that has lead many others to a new 1RM in month 3 as well as a heavy dose of accessory work to address weaknesses, develop muscle, and build resiliency to tolerate more challenging training. In this phase you can expect:

Emphasis on Squat, Bench, and Deadlift, Pull-up and specific variations
Enhanced movement quality through the use of tempo training, single leg work, and accessory movements.
Specific attention to developing shoulder, hip and core strength to compliment high volumes of specific training

*While we’ve specified these lifts (Back Squat, Bench Press, Conventional deadlift) for the program, you also have the ability to substitute for other appropriate variations of each movement.

Phase 2 (Months 4-6) Overview

Phase 2 has an emphasis on improving work capacity through an increase in frequency as well as the use of a variety of methods to increase training density. While we will always maintain an emphasis on developing strength through the big lifts, improving work capacity and training with more movement variety will help to improve general athleticism, avoid burnout from overspecialization, and prepare us for future training phases. In this phase you can expect:

Continued emphasis on developing strength through specific variations of your big 3 lifts (Squat, Bench, and Deadlift)
Training variety through methods including giant sets, EMOMs, contrast training, and more!
Movement variety through challenging single leg, frontal plane, bodyweight movements, and more!
Explosive movements aimed at improving overall athleticism

Phase 3 (Months 7-9) Overview

Phase 3 is a more traditional strength phase with a Lower / Upper split similar to how Phase 1 looked, but with it's own unique feel and EVEN MORE new exercise selection. In this phase you can expect:

Emphasis on Squat, Bench, and Deadlift, Press and specific variations
New movements and exercises to supplement your core lifts
Short, intense metcons designed to maintain the work capacity developed in Phase 2

Phase 4 (Months 10-12) Overview

Phase 4 will look more similar to phase 2 in its emphasis on ‘filling the gaps’ in our training through an emphasis on non-traditional training styles, movement variety, and unique challenges to keep you motivated in your training. In this phase you can expect:

Continued emphasis on developing strength through specific variations of your big 3 lifts (Squat, Bench, and Deadlift)
Training variety through methods including giant sets, EMOMs, contrast training, and more!
Movement variety through challenging single leg, frontal plane, bodyweight movements, and more!
Explosive movements aimed at improving overall athleticism
