Strength Training Insights
Shifting focus to compound lifts can lead to significant strength gains, especially through powerlifting routines. It's essential to recognize that improvements in stability, range of motion, and lifting explosiveness are all indicators of progress, not just the weight on the bar. When comparing strength across different training programs, ensure that the conditions are consistent for a fair assessment.In this clip

I have been running MAPS programs for almost 3 years now. I ran MAPS Powerlift last year, followed by Anabolic, Aesthetic, Performance, and finally MAPS 15 before returning back to Powerlift. The problem I have is that it seems my weights in phase 1 of Powerlift are about the same as they were last year, and I thought I would be lifting heavier by now. Am I on the right track, or should I be pushing myself to lift heavier this time as I run MAPS Powerlift again?
Is the MAPS Powerlift program good for size gains or just strength gains?
I’m a 28-year-old male who has been lifting on and off for the last 6 years. My diet has been on point, and I’ve completed MAPS Anabolic. I’m starting MAPS Powerlift. How quickly should I expect to see strength gains, and what total weight should I be aiming to hit for my big 3 lifts?
