About the programmer
Viktor Långsved is one of the most experience CrossFit® athletes in Europe. Viktor runs CrossFit Prestanda together with Marcus Johansson. Viktor is known for programming variations that makes a workout more fun and appealing.
This is a recurring program geared for masters that sometimes feel that following a competitor program made for 20 year olds is too much for your body to handle. But why stop exploring stuff just because that you are getting a bit more experienced? This program is a fitness aimed program which is theme focused.
We all want to look good and feel good. We want to move good. If you would choose between moving and being able to perform high skill weightlifting you should choose to be able to move.
This means focusing on the movements that gives you a lot of bang for the buck. Choose to be built not burnt.
Specifics
* 4 days a week approx 120min / session
* There will be handstand walk, muscle-ups and decent weights.
* This program can be considered to be between Intermediate and Advanced level wise
* No binding period
* A great system for registering and tracking results in the program
* Full week visible on Sundays plus a daily email every morning
Are you ready?
A program for you that have grown out of CrossFit classes and want to develop some serious weightlifting. The program spans to 4-5 sessions per week for 4 weeks or if you choose to spread it out over 6 weeks for 3 times a week that is also excellent!
CrossFit for beginners
Introduction
Beginner is the introduction to our principles and methods. You will learn from the ground up howto perform the weightlifting movements and the connected accessory. We expect you to have developed a better feel for weightlifting, gymnastics and a whole bunch of skills in these 48 sessions.
When you step into the next level you will have a much easier time establishing true PRs based on technique not just raw strength. Raw strength just takes you so far and in our experience will get you injured over time.
In this block there will be no fixed percentages, we will guide you by feel and focus on the movement.
We will teach you the basics of "body line drills", bent and straight arm gymnastics and the benefits of them. We will develop your feel for the carryover from just a "solid hollow rock and a strong core" hollow rock all the way into a bar/ring muscle-up. We will teach you the foundation of learning handstands
The program is oriented in 3-4 days a week and the program should take no more than 90mins to complete. We have added most of the videos directly in the program but feel free to search our youtube channel.
All exercises in this program should be done with quality in mind, reduce weight and perform the exercise with the correct technique and feeling. Only speed up when you master the movement. No rushing.
Duration: 48 sessions, 3-4 sessions per week and 90 mins per session including warmup.
The program is heavily influenced by our key performance corner stones; Weightlifting, gymnastics, conditioning and odd objects.
Weightlifting
We build your foundation from the ground up. The perfect way to start weightlifting. Learn proper technique before you ramp-up in weights and truly can enjoy the weightlifting in our other programs.
Gymnastics
Get strong first. We will over the course of these twelve weeks train gymnastic movements every session. At first on a very basic level and in the end we will approach the levels of Intermediate. You will develop the strength to get those first strict pull-ups, develop your core and improve the pressing strength to achieve pushups and the foundation of handstand pushups. If you are already at those levels you will still benefit from the program since all our exercises can be made harder.
Conditioning
We strongly believe that for you to develop optimum performance you need to spend time performing conditioning so the program consists of pretty long conditioning while we still need to keep the promised time frame. This program is pretty tough but it is programmed smart. We want you to be recovered prior to the next session. You will go very hard once a week.
Odd Objects
In the recent years The sport of fitness has been very influenced by Strongman implements. We love this movement and our programs utilise equipment such as farmers walk, yoke carry, sandbag, kettlebells, dumbbells basically anything that is odder to move than a 28mm barbell. This as well will prepare you for life in general since life situations rarely come with a perfectly loaded barbell with balanced Eleiko plates.
Are you ready?
Test Beginner, you have nothing to lose!
✅ 2 Dumbbells 10-22,5kg depending on your ability. A classic recommendation is 2x22.5kg for males and 2x15kg for females but anything you have access to will do.

//Relentless Method team
An example session can look like this. For simplicity we have removed all the videos.
Warmup
3 rounds not for time - focus is to activate muscles & get warm.
300m row + 10 shuttle runs
10 lateral steps right + left with band
10 glute bridges with band - 2s pause in top of each rep
10s dead hang pronated grip + 10s dead hang supinated grip
10 scapula pushups
20-40s wall sit with band
Strength
A: Build to a heavy 3 Front Squat - tempo 32x1.
32x1 = 3s down - 2s pause in bottom - up - 1s in the top.
If you can not hold this tempo, do not continue building.
This exercise is part of our test-battery and for tracking purposes please register results here: http://gorillafitness.se/athlete/registerWorkout.do?workoutId=613
For future comparison it is wise to note weight, feel and maybe even shoot a video of the performance.
Notes:
Focus here is to always keep the tempo. Important to keep your chest high
all the time.
B: E4minute x 4 sets
6/6 Single Arm KB Bulgarian Split Squat
AMRAP (minus 2 reps) Ring Row - tempo 3030
When performing a split squat key is to let the knee track over you toes, not
too much in front of them. If your right leg is working, keep the KB in left front
rack, and vice versa.
Ring row - same as the squat, make sure to keep the tempo. When you cant,
stop right away.
AMRAP: AsManyRepsAsPossible
C: E4minute x 4 sets
6 Double DB Bench Press (build to a heavy 6 in 4 sets)
6-8 Single Leg RDL with DB or KB
No tempo in these movements, but make sure to do them with control.
Very important that you are controlling the descent in both movements.
Slow down, faster up. Do not go too heavy. If you are moving well you can
go heavier each round. Make sure that you are getting a stretch benefit in the bottom of the DB Benchpress and that you truly are locking out the elbows in the top.
Conditioning
D: AMRAP 12 minutes
15+15m Rope Pull 60/40kg
10 Double DB Z-Press - Alternate arm (5 per arm)
8 Sandbag or D Ball Squats
The purpose of this piece is to get a good pump, and of course some
endurance in your pushing/pulling.
Rope Pull - if the weight is too heavy, scale. Do not use your hips. The only
thing working should be your arms/lats. Try to keep your back in line with the
floor.
Z-Press - pick a weight you can do 12-13 reps with so 10 isnt way too heavy.
Squats - no leaning forward. Keep your chest high. They should be unbroken
so pick a weight you can handle.
A thought through conditioning program that spans over 16 sessions!
This is a program for you that wants a serious kickstart to your conditioning

Kom förberedd till din tävling!
Grow arms lika a Gorilla. We used to joke about that a feat of being a Gorilla was to at least shoulder press your bodyweight. With this program I shoot for pressing 110% of my bodyweight, breaking the infamous barrier of 100kg. While I am at it I aim to raise my weighted pull-up with 6-8kg as well.
This is a complete upper body program suitable for anyone that want to break barriers.
Experience: You need to have a minimum of six strict pull-ups to get the most out of the program on the pulling side. On the pressing side there is no lower barrier.
This program routine is intended for beginner to intermediates and is an excellent program to use when you do not have access to a gym. Perform it 2-4 times a week to build or maintain your fitness. It is very simple but also very effective.
You have mastered the Bar Muscle-up but you still have not nailed the rings yet.
Three times a week for six weeks we focus on the ring muscle-up and ring-muscle-up alone. In our other programs we drill more movements but here we put the Ring Muscle-up on a piedestal.
With this program you will finally get it!
✅ Two kettlebells: one light and one heavy. Example 16kg + 32kg for males and 12kg + 24kg for women.
✅ Two resistance bands: One light (red) and one a bit sturdier, the rogue green is perfect
No more pain only gain!
This program is the personal program of the headcoach himself. Marcus Herou.

What Muscle-up TWO is
Muscle-up TWO is where you put it all together.
Continued strength work but a big focus on the transitioning part of the muscle-up. The transition is where most fail so in this program we address that in every session for a total of 18 training sessions and a final test week.

What to expect
You should expect an upper body burn that you never experienced before unless you are a bodybuilder. We almost have progression guarantee of this program since so many have got success from the program. This is one of the most successful programs we ever made. We want you to get that muscle-up.
Example of a drill
The negative muscle-up on floor. Where other programs fail we have solutions. This is one of them. Most people are too weak to perform the negative muscle-up properly so we created a version which is floor supported. Make no mistake even this version can be hard especially the transitioning. Spend time in the transitioning and you will prosper.
Negative muscle-up floor version
In six weeks develop your push and pulling strength. The program is perfect for a beginner that really wants to master the basics. There are no shortcuts.
Target audience:

For you who want to get a lot stronger in the upper body. You will develop the foundation for improving your gymnastics or if you already are proficient you will build to a new 1RM on Benchpress and Seal Row.
The program consists of both barbell, gymnastics and bodybuilding movements.
This is a progression from HSPU ONE.
The program is very similar to ONE but contains a lot more advanced gymnastics so we urge that you perform ONE first.
The goal of the program is to develop your pressing and pulling strength in general but with specific focus towards the handstand and handstand pushup.
Similar to ONE we have lots of straight arm strength pieces.
These pieces will increase your handstand ability and will carry over into ring and bar work.
The line drills are very important for creating the right handstand line.
Other benefits of the program is that you will increase your pull-ups, dips, benchpress, shoulder press and even the foundation for handstand walking.
The program is a mix of gymnastics and classic barbell / db exercises.
The program will be oriented in a three day a week fashion where we train Mon / Wed / Fri
This program routine is intended for you who can perform a set of strict pull-ups and is an excellent program to use when you do not have access to a gym. Perform it 2-4 times a week to build or maintain your fitness. It is very simple but also very effective.
If you cannot perform a strict pull-up yet then perform this routine
A program for you that have grown out of CrossFit classes and want to develop some serious weightlifting. The program spans to 4-5 sessions per week for 4 weeks or if you choose to spread it out over 6 weeks for 3 times a week that is also excellent!

Weightlifting
We build your foundation from the ground up. The perfect way to start weightlifting. Learn proper technique before you ramp-up in weights and truly can enjoy the weightlifting in our other programs.
Gymnastics
Get strong first. We will over the course of these twelve weeks train gymnastic movements every session. At first on a very basic level and in the end we will approach the levels of Intermediate. You will develop the strength to get those first strict pull-ups, develop your core and improve the pressing strength to achieve pushups and the foundation of handstand pushups. If you are already at those levels you will still benefit from the program since all our exercises can be made harder.
Conditioning
We strongly believe that for you to develop optimum performance you need to spend time performing conditioning so the program consists of pretty long conditioning while we still need to keep the promised time frame. This program is pretty tough but it is programmed smart. We want you to be recovered prior to the next session. You will go very hard once a week.
Odd Objects
In the recent years The sport of fitness has been very influenced by Strongman implements. We love this movement and our programs utilise equipment such as farmers walk, yoke carry, sandbag, kettlebells, dumbbells basically anything that is odder to move than a 28mm barbell. This as well will prepare you for life in general since life situations rarely come with a perfectly loaded barbell with balanced Eleiko plates.

A: Build to a heavy 3 Front Squat - tempo 32x1.
32x1 = 3s down - 2s pause in bottom - up - 1s in the top.
If you can not hold this tempo, do not continue building.
This exercise is part of our test-battery and for tracking purposes please register results here: http://gorillafitness.se/athlete/registerWorkout.do?workoutId=613
For future comparison it is wise to note weight, feel and maybe even shoot a video of the performance.
Notes:
Focus here is to always keep the tempo. Important to keep your chest high
all the time.
B: E4minute x 4 sets
6/6 Single Arm KB Bulgarian Split Squat
AMRAP (minus 2 reps) Ring Row - tempo 3030
When performing a split squat key is to let the knee track over you toes, not
too much in front of them. If your right leg is working, keep the KB in left front
rack, and vice versa.
Ring row - same as the squat, make sure to keep the tempo. When you cant,
stop right away.
AMRAP: AsManyRepsAsPossible
C: E4minute x 4 sets
6 Double DB Bench Press (build to a heavy 6 in 4 sets)
6-8 Single Leg RDL with DB or KB
No tempo in these movements, but make sure to do them with control.
Very important that you are controlling the descent in both movements.
Slow down, faster up. Do not go too heavy. If you are moving well you can
go heavier each round. Make sure that you are getting a stretch benefit in the bottom of the DB Benchpress and that you truly are locking out the elbows in the top.
Conditioning
D: AMRAP 12 minutes
15+15m Rope Pull 60/40kg
10 Double DB Z-Press - Alternate arm (5 per arm)
8 Sandbag or D Ball Squats
The purpose of this piece is to get a good pump, and of course some
endurance in your pushing/pulling.
Rope Pull - if the weight is too heavy, scale. Do not use your hips. The only
thing working should be your arms/lats. Try to keep your back in line with the
floor.
Z-Press - pick a weight you can do 12-13 reps with so 10 isnt way too heavy.
Squats - no leaning forward. Keep your chest high. They should be unbroken
so pick a weight you can handle.

Grow arms lika a Gorilla. We used to joke about that a feat of being a Gorilla was to at least shoulder press your bodyweight. With this program I shoot for pressing 110% of my bodyweight, breaking the infamous barrier of 100kg. While I am at it I aim to raise my weighted pull-up with 6-8kg as well.
This is a complete upper body program suitable for anyone that want to break barriers.
Experience: You need to have a minimum of six strict pull-ups to get the most out of the program on the pulling side. On the pressing side there is no lower barrier.
This program routine is intended for beginner to intermediates and is an excellent program to use when you do not have access to a gym. Perform it 2-4 times a week to build or maintain your fitness. It is very simple but also very effective.
You have mastered the Bar Muscle-up but you still have not nailed the rings yet.
Three times a week for six weeks we focus on the ring muscle-up and ring-muscle-up alone. In our other programs we drill more movements but here we put the Ring Muscle-up on a piedestal.
With this program you will finally get it!
✅ Two kettlebells: one light and one heavy. Example 16kg + 32kg for males and 12kg + 24kg for women.
✅ Two resistance bands: One light (red) and one a bit sturdier, the rogue green is perfect
No more pain only gain!
This program is the personal program of the headcoach himself. Marcus Herou.
You will train the same sessions as Marcus. You will get exact details on basically every move done during the session. Detailed feeling explanation and sought stimuli.
For whom?
The program is targeted towards any or all of:
What is it?
Typical session
A: Detailed warmup for the session theme
B: Compound lower body movement ie Back Squat, Deadlift, Yoke Carry etc
C1: Upper body pull ie Pull-ups behind the neck, seal rows, strict muscle-ups etc
C2: Lower body assistance ie Step-ups, lunges, split squats etc
D: Gymnastics / Midline ie Front lever, handstands, press to handstand, planche etc
E: Conditioning for the session theme
The kipping pull-up program is the first program in our kipping series from pull-ups to muscle-ups.
You will build the correct mechanics to set you up for success in the long run. We start the muscle-up journey here!
18 sessions with a recommended span over 6 weeks but you can spread it across a longer time if that suits you.
Develop your pulling strength!
I this program we are developing the first and second pull like crazy and you will rip the barbell of the floor in the end of the block. Of course we continue practicing the classic lifts and squats as well during this block. You will be a stronger athlete after this.
30 sessions, 3-5 sessions per week ending with a maxout in the Snatch and Clean & Jerk
Get fit by using your home interior!
16 full body sessions to be done at home 3-4 times a week. Every session is less than 60 minutes and contains excellent mobility, strength progressions and conditioning to get you in shape in no time.
Easy to follow training on the web or in the app.
Every session contains
✅ Warmup and mobility
✅ Strength & Core
✅ Conditioning
✅ Relentless Method progression principles
✅ Only equipment needed is a chair and a table.
Are you ready for some no equipment fitness?
You are closing in on the handstand but you have issues balancing off the wall and in your kickups. This program will give you the final pieces before we move on to the grand final program.
This program is for you who wants to develop your handstand walk and your freestanding handstand
4 weeks, 3 times a week
30 minutes
Strong shoulders and core
Handstand and handstand walk
What Muscle-up TWO is
Muscle-up TWO is where you put it all together.
Continued strength work but a big focus on the transitioning part of the muscle-up. The transition is where most fail so in this program we address that in every session for a total of 18 training sessions and a final test week.
The program will make all your gymnastics stronger, improve your upper body strength and body awareness.
Getting the hang of how to piece a muscle-up together transfers very well into other kinds of gymnastics so this is a very important program for your gymnastic progression.
Timeframe
7 weeks, 3 days a week where we want you to have a minimum of one rest day in between sessions.
Journaling and feedback
You log your every session into a training log which we as admins can see and use as guidance tool to help you forward.
Video and explanations
Almost every exercise in the program has a youtube video found on our channel. We give detailed explanations on how to perform all movements.
What to expect
You should expect an upper body burn that you never experienced before unless you are a bodybuilder. We almost have progression guarantee of this program since so many have got success from the program. This is one of the most successful programs we ever made. We want you to get that muscle-up.
Example of a drill
The negative muscle-up on floor. Where other programs fail we have solutions. This is one of them. Most people are too weak to perform the negative muscle-up properly so we created a version which is floor supported. Make no mistake even this version can be hard especially the transitioning. Spend time in the transitioning and you will prosper.
Negative muscle-up floor version
In six weeks develop your push and pulling strength. The program is perfect for a beginner that really wants to master the basics. There are no shortcuts.
Target audience:
* You want to develop the strength to perform five full range of motion pushups according to this standard.
* You want to get the foundation to one day get a strict pull-up. The scope to get a strict pull-up is in the following program after this.
For you who want to get a lot stronger in the upper body. You will develop the foundation for improving your gymnastics or if you already are proficient you will build to a new 1RM on Benchpress and Seal Row.
The program consists of both barbell, gymnastics and bodybuilding movements.
This is a progression from HSPU ONE.
The program is very similar to ONE but contains a lot more advanced gymnastics so we urge that you perform ONE first.
The goal of the program is to develop your pressing and pulling strength in general but with specific focus towards the handstand and handstand pushup.
Similar to ONE we have lots of straight arm strength pieces.
These pieces will increase your handstand ability and will carry over into ring and bar work.
The line drills are very important for creating the right handstand line.
Other benefits of the program is that you will increase your pull-ups, dips, benchpress, shoulder press and even the foundation for handstand walking.
The program is a mix of gymnastics and classic barbell / db exercises.
The program will be oriented in a three day a week fashion where we train Mon / Wed / Fri
This program routine is intended for you who can perform a set of strict pull-ups and is an excellent program to use when you do not have access to a gym. Perform it 2-4 times a week to build or maintain your fitness. It is very simple but also very effective.
If you cannot perform a strict pull-up yet then perform this routine

CrossFit for beginners
Introduction
Beginner is the introduction to our principles and methods. You will learn from the ground up howto perform the weightlifting movements and the connected accessory. We expect you to have developed a better feel for weightlifting, gymnastics and a whole bunch of skills in these 48 sessions.
When you step into the next level you will have a much easier time establishing true PRs based on technique not just raw strength. Raw strength just takes you so far and in our experience will get you injured over time.
In this block there will be no fixed percentages, we will guide you by feel and focus on the movement.
We will teach you the basics of "body line drills", bent and straight arm gymnastics and the benefits of them. We will develop your feel for the carryover from just a "solid hollow rock and a strong core" hollow rock all the way into a bar/ring muscle-up. We will teach you the foundation of learning handstands
The program is oriented in 3-4 days a week and the program should take no more than 90mins to complete. We have added most of the videos directly in the program but feel free to search our youtube channel.
All exercises in this program should be done with quality in mind, reduce weight and perform the exercise with the correct technique and feeling. Only speed up when you master the movement. No rushing.
Duration: 48 sessions, 3-4 sessions per week and 90 mins per session including warmup.
The program is heavily influenced by our key performance corner stones; Weightlifting, gymnastics, conditioning and odd objects.
Weightlifting
We build your foundation from the ground up. The perfect way to start weightlifting. Learn proper technique before you ramp-up in weights and truly can enjoy the weightlifting in our other programs.
Gymnastics
Get strong first. We will over the course of these twelve weeks train gymnastic movements every session. At first on a very basic level and in the end we will approach the levels of Intermediate. You will develop the strength to get those first strict pull-ups, develop your core and improve the pressing strength to achieve pushups and the foundation of handstand pushups. If you are already at those levels you will still benefit from the program since all our exercises can be made harder.
Conditioning
We strongly believe that for you to develop optimum performance you need to spend time performing conditioning so the program consists of pretty long conditioning while we still need to keep the promised time frame. This program is pretty tough but it is programmed smart. We want you to be recovered prior to the next session. You will go very hard once a week.
Odd Objects
In the recent years The sport of fitness has been very influenced by Strongman implements. We love this movement and our programs utilise equipment such as farmers walk, yoke carry, sandbag, kettlebells, dumbbells basically anything that is odder to move than a 28mm barbell. This as well will prepare you for life in general since life situations rarely come with a perfectly loaded barbell with balanced Eleiko plates.
Are you ready?

CrossFit for beginners
Introduction
Beginner is the introduction to our principles and methods. You will learn from the ground up howto perform the weightlifting movements and the connected accessory. We expect you to have developed a better feel for weightlifting, gymnastics and a whole bunch of skills in these 48 sessions.
When you step into the next level you will have a much easier time establishing true PRs based on technique not just raw strength. Raw strength just takes you so far and in our experience will get you injured over time.
In this block there will be no fixed percentages, we will guide you by feel and focus on the movement.
We will teach you the basics of "body line drills", bent and straight arm gymnastics and the benefits of them. We will develop your feel for the carryover from just a "solid hollow rock and a strong core" hollow rock all the way into a bar/ring muscle-up. We will teach you the foundation of learning handstands
The program is oriented in 3-4 days a week and the program should take no more than 90mins to complete. We have added most of the videos directly in the program but feel free to search our youtube channel.
All exercises in this program should be done with quality in mind, reduce weight and perform the exercise with the correct technique and feeling. Only speed up when you master the movement. No rushing.
Duration: 48 sessions, 3-4 sessions per week and 90 mins per session including warmup.
The program is heavily influenced by our key performance corner stones; Weightlifting, gymnastics, conditioning and odd objects.
Weightlifting
We build your foundation from the ground up. The perfect way to start weightlifting. Learn proper technique before you ramp-up in weights and truly can enjoy the weightlifting in our other programs.
Gymnastics
Get strong first. We will over the course of these twelve weeks train gymnastic movements every session. At first on a very basic level and in the end we will approach the levels of Intermediate. You will develop the strength to get those first strict pull-ups, develop your core and improve the pressing strength to achieve pushups and the foundation of handstand pushups. If you are already at those levels you will still benefit from the program since all our exercises can be made harder.
Conditioning
We strongly believe that for you to develop optimum performance you need to spend time performing conditioning so the program consists of pretty long conditioning while we still need to keep the promised time frame. This program is pretty tough but it is programmed smart. We want you to be recovered prior to the next session. You will go very hard once a week.
Odd Objects
In the recent years The sport of fitness has been very influenced by Strongman implements. We love this movement and our programs utilise equipment such as farmers walk, yoke carry, sandbag, kettlebells, dumbbells basically anything that is odder to move than a 28mm barbell. This as well will prepare you for life in general since life situations rarely come with a perfectly loaded barbell with balanced Eleiko plates.
Are you ready?

//Relentless Method team
An example session can look like this. For simplicity we have removed all the videos.
Warmup
3 rounds not for time - focus is to activate muscles & get warm.
300m row + 10 shuttle runs
10 lateral steps right + left with band
10 glute bridges with band - 2s pause in top of each rep
10s dead hang pronated grip + 10s dead hang supinated grip
10 scapula pushups
20-40s wall sit with band
Strength
A: Build to a heavy 3 Front Squat - tempo 32x1.
32x1 = 3s down - 2s pause in bottom - up - 1s in the top.
If you can not hold this tempo, do not continue building.
This exercise is part of our test-battery and for tracking purposes please register results here: http://gorillafitness.se/athlete/registerWorkout.do?workoutId=613
For future comparison it is wise to note weight, feel and maybe even shoot a video of the performance.
Notes:
Focus here is to always keep the tempo. Important to keep your chest high
all the time.
B: E4minute x 4 sets
6/6 Single Arm KB Bulgarian Split Squat
AMRAP (minus 2 reps) Ring Row - tempo 3030
When performing a split squat key is to let the knee track over you toes, not
too much in front of them. If your right leg is working, keep the KB in left front
rack, and vice versa.
Ring row - same as the squat, make sure to keep the tempo. When you cant,
stop right away.
AMRAP: AsManyRepsAsPossible
C: E4minute x 4 sets
6 Double DB Bench Press (build to a heavy 6 in 4 sets)
6-8 Single Leg RDL with DB or KB
No tempo in these movements, but make sure to do them with control.
Very important that you are controlling the descent in both movements.
Slow down, faster up. Do not go too heavy. If you are moving well you can
go heavier each round. Make sure that you are getting a stretch benefit in the bottom of the DB Benchpress and that you truly are locking out the elbows in the top.
Conditioning
D: AMRAP 12 minutes
15+15m Rope Pull 60/40kg
10 Double DB Z-Press - Alternate arm (5 per arm)
8 Sandbag or D Ball Squats
The purpose of this piece is to get a good pump, and of course some
endurance in your pushing/pulling.
Rope Pull - if the weight is too heavy, scale. Do not use your hips. The only
thing working should be your arms/lats. Try to keep your back in line with the
floor.
Z-Press - pick a weight you can do 12-13 reps with so 10 isnt way too heavy.
Squats - no leaning forward. Keep your chest high. They should be unbroken
so pick a weight you can handle.

Grow arms lika a Gorilla. We used to joke about that a feat of being a Gorilla was to at least shoulder press your bodyweight. With this program I shoot for pressing 110% of my bodyweight, breaking the infamous barrier of 100kg. While I am at it I aim to raise my weighted pull-up with 6-8kg as well.
This is a complete upper body program suitable for anyone that want to break barriers.
Experience: You need to have a minimum of six strict pull-ups to get the most out of the program on the pulling side. On the pressing side there is no lower barrier.

You will develop the strength to get those first strict pull-ups, develop your core and improve the pressing strength to achieve pushups and the foundation of handstand pushups. If you are already at those levels you will still benefit from the program since all our exercises can be made harder.
Conditioning
We strongly believe that for you to develop optimum performance you need to spend time performing conditioning so the program consists of pretty long conditioning while we still need to keep the promised time frame. This program is pretty tough but it is programmed smart. We want you to be recovered prior to the next session. You will go very hard once a week.
Odd Objects
In the recent years The sport of fitness has been very influenced by Strongman implements. We love this movement and our programs utilise equipment such as farmers walk, yoke carry, sandbag, kettlebells, dumbbells basically anything that is odder to move than a 28mm barbell. This as well will prepare you for life in general since life situations rarely come with a perfectly loaded barbell with balanced Eleiko plates.

CrossFit for beginners
Introduction
Beginner is the introduction to our principles and methods. You will learn from the ground up howto perform the weightlifting movements and the connected accessory. We expect you to have developed a better feel for weightlifting, gymnastics and a whole bunch of skills in these 48 sessions.
When you step into the next level you will have a much easier time establishing true PRs based on technique not just raw strength. Raw strength just takes you so far and in our experience will get you injured over time.
In this block there will be no fixed percentages, we will guide you by feel and focus on the movement.
We will teach you the basics of "body line drills", bent and straight arm gymnastics and the benefits of them. We will develop your feel for the carryover from just a "solid hollow rock and a strong core" hollow rock all the way into a bar/ring muscle-up. We will teach you the foundation of learning handstands
The program is oriented in 3-4 days a week and the program should take no more than 90mins to complete. We have added most of the videos directly in the program but feel free to search our youtube channel.
All exercises in this program should be done with quality in mind, reduce weight and perform the exercise with the correct technique and feeling. Only speed up when you master the movement. No rushing.
Duration: 48 sessions, 3-4 sessions per week and 90 mins per session including warmup.
The program is heavily influenced by our key performance corner stones; Weightlifting, gymnastics, conditioning and odd objects.

//Relentless Method team
An example session can look like this. For simplicity we have removed all the videos.
Warmup
3 rounds not for time - focus is to activate muscles & get warm.
300m row + 10 shuttle runs
10 lateral steps right + left with band
10 glute bridges with band - 2s pause in top of each rep
10s dead hang pronated grip + 10s dead hang supinated grip
10 scapula pushups
20-40s wall sit with band
Strength
A: Build to a heavy 3 Front Squat - tempo 32x1.
32x1 = 3s down - 2s pause in bottom - up - 1s in the top.
If you can not hold this tempo, do not continue building.
This exercise is part of our test-battery and for tracking purposes please register results here: http://gorillafitness.se/athlete/registerWorkout.do?workoutId=613
For future comparison it is wise to note weight, feel and maybe even shoot a video of the performance.
Notes:
Focus here is to always keep the tempo. Important to keep your chest high
all the time.
B: E4minute x 4 sets
6/6 Single Arm KB Bulgarian Split Squat
AMRAP (minus 2 reps) Ring Row - tempo 3030
When performing a split squat key is to let the knee track over you toes, not
too much in front of them. If your right leg is working, keep the KB in left front
rack, and vice versa.
Ring row - same as the squat, make sure to keep the tempo. When you cant,
stop right away.
AMRAP: AsManyRepsAsPossible
C: E4minute x 4 sets
6 Double DB Bench Press (build to a heavy 6 in 4 sets)
6-8 Single Leg RDL with DB or KB
No tempo in these movements, but make sure to do them with control.
Very important that you are controlling the descent in both movements.
Slow down, faster up. Do not go too heavy. If you are moving well you can
go heavier each round. Make sure that you are getting a stretch benefit in the bottom of the DB Benchpress and that you truly are locking out the elbows in the top.
Conditioning
D: AMRAP 12 minutes
15+15m Rope Pull 60/40kg
10 Double DB Z-Press - Alternate arm (5 per arm)
8 Sandbag or D Ball Squats
The purpose of this piece is to get a good pump, and of course some
endurance in your pushing/pulling.
Rope Pull - if the weight is too heavy, scale. Do not use your hips. The only
thing working should be your arms/lats. Try to keep your back in line with the
floor.
Z-Press - pick a weight you can do 12-13 reps with so 10 isnt way too heavy.
Squats - no leaning forward. Keep your chest high. They should be unbroken
so pick a weight you can handle.
A thought through conditioning program that spans over 16 sessions!
This is a program for you that wants a serious kickstart to your conditioning

Grow arms lika a Gorilla. We used to joke about that a feat of being a Gorilla was to at least shoulder press your bodyweight. With this program I shoot for pressing 110% of my bodyweight, breaking the infamous barrier of 100kg. While I am at it I aim to raise my weighted pull-up with 6-8kg as well.
This is a complete upper body program suitable for anyone that want to break barriers.
Experience: You need to have a minimum of six strict pull-ups to get the most out of the program on the pulling side. On the pressing side there is no lower barrier.
This program routine is intended for beginner to intermediates and is an excellent program to use when you do not have access to a gym. Perform it 2-4 times a week to build or maintain your fitness. It is very simple but also very effective.
You have mastered the Bar Muscle-up but you still have not nailed the rings yet.
Three times a week for six weeks we focus on the ring muscle-up and ring-muscle-up alone. In our other programs we drill more movements but here we put the Ring Muscle-up on a piedestal.
With this program you will finally get it!
✅ Two kettlebells: one light and one heavy. Example 16kg + 32kg for males and 12kg + 24kg for women.
✅ Two resistance bands: One light (red) and one a bit sturdier, the rogue green is perfect
No more pain only gain!

You should expect an upper body burn that you never experienced before unless you are a bodybuilder. We almost have progression guarantee of this program since so many have got success from the program. This is one of the most successful programs we ever made. We want you to get that muscle-up.
Example of a drill
The negative muscle-up on floor. Where other programs fail we have solutions. This is one of them. Most people are too weak to perform the negative muscle-up properly so we created a version which is floor supported. Make no mistake even this version can be hard especially the transitioning. Spend time in the transitioning and you will prosper.

For you who want to get a lot stronger in the upper body. You will develop the foundation for improving your gymnastics or if you already are proficient you will build to a new 1RM on Benchpress and Seal Row.
The program consists of both barbell, gymnastics and bodybuilding movements.
This is a progression from HSPU ONE.
The program is very similar to ONE but contains a lot more advanced gymnastics so we urge that you perform ONE first.
The goal of the program is to develop your pressing and pulling strength in general but with specific focus towards the handstand and handstand pushup.
Similar to ONE we have lots of straight arm strength pieces.
These pieces will increase your handstand ability and will carry over into ring and bar work.
The line drills are very important for creating the right handstand line.
Other benefits of the program is that you will increase your pull-ups, dips, benchpress, shoulder press and even the foundation for handstand walking.
The program is a mix of gymnastics and classic barbell / db exercises.
The program will be oriented in a three day a week fashion where we train Mon / Wed / Fri
This program routine is intended for you who can perform a set of strict pull-ups and is an excellent program to use when you do not have access to a gym. Perform it 2-4 times a week to build or maintain your fitness. It is very simple but also very effective.

Duration: 48 sessions, 3-4 sessions per week and 90 mins per session including warmup.
The program is heavily influenced by our key performance corner stones; Weightlifting, gymnastics, conditioning and odd objects.
Weightlifting
We build your foundation from the ground up. The perfect way to start weightlifting. Learn proper technique before you ramp-up in weights and truly can enjoy the weightlifting in our other programs.
Gymnastics
Get strong first. We will over the course of these twelve weeks train gymnastic movements every session. At first on a very basic level and in the end we will approach the levels of Intermediate. You will develop the strength to get those first strict pull-ups, develop your core and improve the pressing strength to achieve pushups and the foundation of handstand pushups. If you are already at those levels you will still benefit from the program since all our exercises can be made harder.
Conditioning
We strongly believe that for you to develop optimum performance you need to spend time performing conditioning so the program consists of pretty long conditioning while we still need to keep the promised time frame. This program is pretty tough but it is programmed smart. We want you to be recovered prior to the next session. You will go very hard once a week.
Odd Objects
In the recent years The sport of fitness has been very influenced by Strongman implements. We love this movement and our programs utilise equipment such as farmers walk, yoke carry, sandbag, kettlebells, dumbbells basically anything that is odder to move than a 28mm barbell. This as well will prepare you for life in general since life situations rarely come with a perfectly loaded barbell with balanced Eleiko plates.

An example session can look like this. For simplicity we have removed all the videos.
Warmup
3 rounds not for time - focus is to activate muscles & get warm.
300m row + 10 shuttle runs
10 lateral steps right + left with band
10 glute bridges with band - 2s pause in top of each rep
10s dead hang pronated grip + 10s dead hang supinated grip
10 scapula pushups
20-40s wall sit with band
Strength
A: Build to a heavy 3 Front Squat - tempo 32x1.
32x1 = 3s down - 2s pause in bottom - up - 1s in the top.
If you can not hold this tempo, do not continue building.
This exercise is part of our test-battery and for tracking purposes please register results here: http://gorillafitness.se/athlete/registerWorkout.do?workoutId=613
For future comparison it is wise to note weight, feel and maybe even shoot a video of the performance.
Notes:
Focus here is to always keep the tempo. Important to keep your chest high
all the time.
B: E4minute x 4 sets
6/6 Single Arm KB Bulgarian Split Squat
AMRAP (minus 2 reps) Ring Row - tempo 3030
When performing a split squat key is to let the knee track over you toes, not
too much in front of them. If your right leg is working, keep the KB in left front
rack, and vice versa.
Ring row - same as the squat, make sure to keep the tempo. When you cant,
stop right away.
AMRAP: AsManyRepsAsPossible
C: E4minute x 4 sets
6 Double DB Bench Press (build to a heavy 6 in 4 sets)
6-8 Single Leg RDL with DB or KB
No tempo in these movements, but make sure to do them with control.
Very important that you are controlling the descent in both movements.
Slow down, faster up. Do not go too heavy. If you are moving well you can
go heavier each round. Make sure that you are getting a stretch benefit in the bottom of the DB Benchpress and that you truly are locking out the elbows in the top.
Conditioning
D: AMRAP 12 minutes
15+15m Rope Pull 60/40kg
10 Double DB Z-Press - Alternate arm (5 per arm)
8 Sandbag or D Ball Squats
The purpose of this piece is to get a good pump, and of course some
endurance in your pushing/pulling.
Rope Pull - if the weight is too heavy, scale. Do not use your hips. The only
thing working should be your arms/lats. Try to keep your back in line with the
floor.
Z-Press - pick a weight you can do 12-13 reps with so 10 isnt way too heavy.
Squats - no leaning forward. Keep your chest high. They should be unbroken
so pick a weight you can handle.
