How it works

The program’s own rules, as Catalyst runs them.

Train three days a week for eight weeks. Set your repetition maxima and increments for each movement. Before negative-only sets, review how to perform them and choose the number of repetitions. The final-week squat and dip work has no set instructions.

What you need

Everything its exercises call for. Missing something? The app suggests swaps that train the same thing.

  • Adjustable bench
  • Barbell
  • Dumbbells
  • Flat bench
  • Parallel bars
  • Pull-up bar
  • Squat rack
