Program Overview

Why This Program Works

Philosophy

Upper Strength, Lower Strength, Functional & Agility, Full Body & Cardio, and Discipline & Control.

Physique Goal

Dense, functional strength — a leader's build, capable under real physical demands.

Performance Goal

Real strength on the compound lifts, genuine carrying capacity, and dependable conditioning.

How Progression Works

Barbell lifts use double progression. Carries and holds use duration progression. Target RIR drops from 3 to 2 across the two phases.

Training Philosophy

How Akitaru Obi Trains

Obi leads a team of ability-users with no powers of his own — real functional strength, agility, and discipline are the whole story. This program is built around genuine compound lifting and functional carrying strength, with real discipline work closing the week.
