Synopsis

Three lifts. Three sets. Three days a week.

No two-hour sessions. No gimmicks. No spreadsheets. Just the big lifts, done hard, done safely, and done often enough to change your body.

Total Strength, Total Fitness is a complete 12-week strength program for men and women who are tired of training without results. It's built on the HIRT 3󬱛 Method: three compound lifts, three hard sets of seven, three sessions a week. Then the Matrix 21+3 stacks those lifts into supersets and adds a rep you earn every week, so you always know you're getting stronger.

Inside you'll find:

  • The seven HIRT rules, and why seven reps and three sets work
  • Step-by-step coaching for the eight lifts that matter: squat, deadlift, bench press, row, overhead press, front squat, incline press and cable row
  • A 12-week, two-phase program with clear rules for choosing your weights and adding to them
  • Gym-ready session pages for every workout
  • Straight answers on plateaus, missed weeks, cardio, home gyms and training over 50
  • The 3-7-3 Habit Challenge for food, sleep and the habits that hold you back

Every session takes about 45 minutes. All you need is a rack, a barbell, a bench and some dumbbells, and the willingness to work hard.
