Client Scenario: Competitive Powerlifter

Our client is a powerlifter aiming to improve their lifts for upcoming competitions. They need a focused program that prioritizes the big three lifts while ensuring adequate recovery and progression

Coach Inputs

RxBot in Action

We prompted RxBot with the following:

"Create a 4-week program beginning August 19, 2024, targeting strength building and developing a powerlifting-specific program focusing on the squat, bench press, and deadlift. Ensure that compound lifts are on separate days. Tailor the program for a powerlifter aiming to improve their lifts in competition."
