Stronger: By Science Programs.zip
Designed for those who prefer not to train to absolute failure. It asks you to stop a set when you feel you have a specific number of reps left in the tank.
At the core of the SBS programs is the concept of autoregulation. Traditional programs often prescribe fixed weights based on a one-rep max (1RM) measured weeks or months prior. SBS utilizes "Training Maxes" that adjust dynamically based on your performance during "AMRAP" (As Many Reps As Possible) sets. This ensures the intensity remains optimal—challenging you on days you feel strong and scaling back on days you are fatigued—which maximizes long-term progress while minimizing burnout.

The Stronger By Science (SBS) program bundle, formerly known as "Average to Savage," represents a masterclass in evidence-based resistance training. Created by Greg Nuckols and the SBS team, these programs bridge the gap between complex exercise science and practical, adaptable gym application. Unlike rigid, "cookie-cutter" routines, the SBS bundle is a customizable toolkit designed to accommodate various experience levels, goals, and schedules. The Philosophy of Autoregulation Designed for those who prefer not to train
One of the greatest strengths of the SBS suite is its extreme flexibility. Users can choose to train anywhere from 2 to 6 days per week. The spreadsheets allow for the seamless integration of "Auxiliary" lifts, enabling lifters to target specific weaknesses or incorporate bodybuilding movements alongside their primary compound lifts. This makes the program equally effective for powerlifters, general fitness enthusiasts, and athletes. Data-Driven Progress Traditional programs often prescribe fixed weights based on
The most popular version. It uses an AMRAP set at the end of each movement to determine if your weight should increase the following week.
