Training Formats That Match Your Level

Every program is built around the same core lifts, but the structure, volume, and coaching depth change depending on where you are. Pick the format that fits your schedule and experience.

Foundations Track

A 12-week cycle for lifters who want to build a reliable squat, bench, and deadlift. Each week includes three full-body sessions with prescribed sets, reps, and rest periods. Technique cues are written out for every movement, and the final week is a deload before you retest your maxes.

Strength Builder

For intermediates who have been training consistently for at least a year. This format uses a four-day upper/lower split with wave loading on the main lifts. Accessory work targets weak points like lockout strength and leg drive, and each block runs for eight weeks before a reset.

Powerlifting Peak

A competition-focused cycle that brings your squat, bench, and deadlift to a peak over 10 weeks. It includes heavy singles, paused reps, and a structured taper. You also get a meet-day warm-up plan and attempt selection strategy, so you know exactly what to do when the bar is loaded.

Nutrition Companion

Not a training plan, but the eating side of the equation. This format pairs with any of the training tracks and covers protein targets, calorie adjustments for surplus or deficit phases, and meal timing around sessions. You get a simple tracking template and weekly check-in questions to keep yourself honest.

What the Service Menu Covers

Every program on this page is built around the same core: clear sets, honest rep ranges, and rest periods that match your experience level. No vague promises, just a structure you can follow from week one.

Strength Training Foundations

Learn how to build a base with the big three lifts. Each plan includes warm-up sets, working sets, and rest intervals, with adjustments for beginners who need more practice and intermediates who need more load.

Powerlifting Program Design

Structured cycles for the squat, bench press, and deadlift, using linear progression or wave loading depending on your training age. You get a clear view of when to add weight and when to deload.

Bodybuilding Nutrition Plans

Calorie and protein targets based on lean body mass, with meal structures for training days and rest days. The focus is on natural gains, so you learn to adjust intake without relying on supplements.

Training Volume Management

Guidance on how many sets per muscle group actually drive progress, and when extra volume stops helping. You'll see how to track weekly tonnage and make small changes before a plateau sets in.

Recovery and Injury Prevention

Practical advice on sleep, mobility work, and bracing technique to keep your joints healthy under heavy loads. Includes warning signs for common overuse issues and how to modify training around them.

Supplementation Basics

A plain-language look at which supplements have evidence behind them and which are optional. Covers protein powder, creatine, and caffeine, with dosing guidelines and timing around workouts.

Why lifters stay with Dukes Weight

Every program here is built around the same three lifts and the recovery that makes them work. No vague promises, just a clear path from your first working set to a heavier personal record.

Progressions that match your level

Whether you are pulling your first 60 kg deadlift or planning a meet peak, the routines scale in sets, reps, and rest periods. Beginners get more practice frequency, advanced lifters get longer recovery windows.

Nutrition tied to training volume

Calories and protein are matched to your current workload, not a generic chart. High-volume blocks get more carbs, deload weeks get less, and protein stays anchored to lean body mass.

Periodization without guesswork

Each cycle has a clear start, a progression scheme, and a deload week. You always know what comes next, whether you are running linear progression or wave loading.

Recovery built into the plan

Sleep, rest days, and joint care are scheduled like any other variable. The goal is consistent training, not grinding through fatigue until something breaks.

Technique cues that prevent injury

Every major lift is broken into setup, execution, and lockout phases with specific cues. You learn to brace, set your back, and move the bar in a straight line before adding weight.

What lifters say after running our programs

Browse full results

"I added 22.5 kg to my deadlift in one 12-week cycle. The setup cues about bracing and pulling slack out of the bar finally made sense. My lower back feels solid, not sore after heavy singles."

"The nutrition plan for my cut kept protein at 2.2 g per kg of bodyweight. I lost 4 kg in eight weeks and my bench press stayed at the same working weight. That never happened before."

"Wave loading on squats was the missing piece. I stopped guessing when to add weight and just followed the weekly rep scheme. My squat went from 120 kg to 137.5 kg in nine weeks."

"As a beginner I was scared of heavy pulls. The progression from rack pulls to deficit deadlifts built my confidence slowly. Now I pull 140 kg with clean form and no back pain."

"The deload week advice was worth the whole program. I used to train hard every session and stalled for months. After two deloads my press started moving again without extra volume."
