About The program
“If In Doubt, Max Out” – Ivan Abadzhiev (Bulgarian Head Coach)
The Bulgarian weightlifting system defined an entire era of weightlifting, generating 12 Olympic champions, 57 world champions and 64 European champions.
So I’ve put together and tested a 6-week programme based on their exact principles.
My name is Alex Parry, I’m a strength, conditioning and weightlifting coach that helps athletes and weightlifters refine their technique, get stronger and hit PR’s.
Over the past 7 years, I’ve coached everyone from everyday athletes through to squads of national and international level competitors.
And I can tell you one thing for certain, maximal results require maximal effort.
I created this 6-week Bulgarian weightlifting program to give you a way to train with maximal effort, without breaking yourself in the process.
It’s priced super-reasonably so it should be within most people’s budget, and you can purchase the programme by clicking below…
