How the 8 weeks work

How the programme works

01 · Phase 1

Weeks 1–4 · Position & control

Paused deficit pulls to own the hardest part, slow-tempo work to build the finish position.

02 · Phase 2

Weeks 5–8 · Load & range

Heavier deficits and snatch-grip pulls — more range, more upper-back demand.

Stop copying generic programmes from Instagram or ChatGPT and wondering why nothing you try seems to work. This is tried and tested.

Never again watch everyone else get stronger while you're stuck in limbo. These are the same methods my clients and I use to hit consistent PBs. Every. Single. Time.

No more guessing which exercises, sets, reps or weights you should be doing — I've mapped out every single session and every single instruction.

Forget questioning your technique and worrying about hurting yourself doing the wrong thing — I'll send you daily emails with tips, tricks and tutorials.

By week 8 you'll feel like you've finally got your head around proper deadlift technique — and you can reuse this plan any time you feel stuck again.

Why you're training hard but your deadlift still won't move…

You're in the gym every week, lifting heavy, watching tutorials on YouTube, reading blogs and articles, and trying the new things you learn.

Sometimes things feel a little better, but it's still not enough to break past that invisible wall.

There's something about your deadlift that just isn't right. You have a couple of theories on what's going wrong, but you just can't crack it.

So you try more weight, more reps, more sets, more sessions… but more isn't enough.

It's now been a few weeks, months, or worse… and nothing's changed.

The problem is rarely that you're not doing enough. You likely have two issues staring you right in the face.

Issue 01

You're leaking strength through your technique — something about how you move the weight is keeping you locked exactly where you are.

Issue 02

Your programme isn't built around what you actually need — it never develops the areas where you're falling short.

The solution

The Deadlift Builder

An 8-week deadlift-specific programme built to take your deadlift to the next level by refining your technique and building strength where most people leak it.

I've personally used this exact deadlift approach to take myself from failing 200kg seven times to lifting 215kg with more in the tank. And I'm using it again to chase 230.

I use the same approach with my clients when they're stuck and can't progress. I understand what it's like to feel stuck and have nothing work — the story above is mine.

This works, which is why I'm making it available outside of my Mentorship.

The programme is a full 8-week structure: every exercise, set, rep, recommended weight, cue and instruction — plus daily emails with bonus content and exercise tutorials.

How the 8 weeks are structured

How the programme works

01

Phase 1 · Weeks 1–4 · Position & control

A paused deficit deadlift to own the hardest part of the pull, plus slow-tempo conventional/sumo work to build strength in the position you should finish in.

02

Phase 2 · Weeks 5–8 · Load & range

The paused deficit gets heavier, and day 2 shifts to snatch-grip deadlifts — more range, more upper-back demand, no grinding the same pattern into the ground.

Why does this work every time?

01

I spent 7 years obsessing over deadlifts, learning everything I could from the best in the game.

02

Learning every mistake, technique and way to programme I could possibly find, to unlock the strength I knew I had.

03

I developed a system that forced me to work on my weak spots — specific deadlift variations to cement technique, and the right accessories to support the work.

04

Structured into alternating phases with different elements to prioritise, so there's always a new and challenging stimulus for your body to adapt to.

This way it covers the two main reasons people's deadlifts stall: missing the weak links, and not supporting your progress.
