How it works

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

Complete ten weeks. Start T2 around RPE 8 and T3 around RPE 7, leaving 1–2 reps in reserve on weekly AMRAPs. Use five-pound increases and a five-pound rounding step even when displaying another unit, applying the 90% training max before rounding the target. Choose supersets and rest as needed. Do core work without added weight for the required reps, choosing any other core or progression changes deliberately. Choose pause depth and duration, how to divide dumbbell-row reps between sides and which side goes first, and equipment setup. Counts refer to one exercise set and are not doubled automatically for sides. Week 10 has only two deload workouts. Choose any later run yourself.
