🚫 This Product Has Been Retired – It has been replaced by my ‘Complete JHEPC Conjugate System for Strongman’ and by its Spiritual Successor
‘Strongman:Beyond Barebones 1 (The Off Season)’
This is a discontinued ebook that is not representative of the content, format etc that I offer now but is available currently as promotional material for future releases.
If its available its part of a promotion to showcase future offerings
The Conjugate for Strongman 12-Week Program (Version 3.0) is no longer available for purchase.
Over the past few years, this program helped hundreds of strongman athletes build real-world strength, structure their training, and finally make progress that didn’t fall apart during comp season. But now it’s been replaced - and refined - by something even better.
Note: This title is part of my site changeover sale - available at a drastically reduced price, but not representative of my current standards or work quality.
Every lesson, template, and method from this ebook has been distilled, expanded, and upgraded inside The Full Conjugate Strongman System - a complete 12-month blueprint that combines off-season strength, comp prep, peaking, weak point work, recovery protocols, and more.
If you came here looking for the original 12-week template, don’t worry - it still exists, just inside a bigger, better system designed to keep you getting stronger all year long.
