How it works

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

Train twice a week, using conventional deadlifts first and sumo for the opposite stance. Keep the first opposite-stance weight through weeks two and three. The first set in week one should feel like RPE 8. Choose assistance weights, warm up and rest as needed. In the final workout, you may attempt a new one-rep max and stop after a successful attempt if you wish.
