You have in front of you an open source program written by me, Jack Morrow,
known from 2017-2020 on Instagram as “Jack the Deadlift Ripper”. At the time of this
writing, I have been coaching and competing in powerlifting for 8 years, with
interspersed experience in bodybuilding and strongman. Through my Instagram
channel, I’ve had the privilege of working with more than 750 individual athletes of all
levels. For a long time, I charged a custom programming fee for my programs, which
helped cover the cost of my time to develop the programs, critique form checks, answer
questions, and develop new and engaging content. I’ve since semi-retired from this
business model and have instead adopted an open source approach.

Under this model, I’ve released ten of my most effective and refined programs for
anyone to use in their training. It is my hope that these programs will be widely
distributed, and the same joy and progress my athletes and I have experienced will
spread through the lifting community. To find all ten of my programs, go to:

If you find value in this program, and you too experience the joy of work and
progress as a result of these contents, consider making a donation. Any little bit helps,
whether it’s $3 for a cup of coffee or the $100 that an average program sold for when I
was actively developing this material. If you choose not to donate, consider sharing this
program with your friends! At the end of the day, if lifters hit fresh PRs, bust through
plateaus, exceed their preconceived limits, or extend their lives through sport, I’ve done
my job.

Important Notes: This program is plug-and-play, meaning you can
simply add it to any powerlifting program built around the squat, bench press, and
deadlift. Add it to any of the other programs I’ve built, tack it on to your current split, or
just run it as a daily mobility routine.
