This program is your six-week journey to a bigger bench press, squat, and deadlift, but it's also your ticket to increased muscle mass, total-body strength, and overall power. Shortcut to Strength is third in Jim Stoppani's Shortcut trilogy, but it stands on its own and can help any lifter get seriously strong!

Each week brings you one workout built around each of the major lifts, plus one workout focused on building power and explosiveness. Over three progressive phases, you'll become systematically stronger and more functionally fit than you've ever been before.
Each day of Shortcut to Strength you'll receive a full guide telling you exactly what you need to do. Plus, once a week, Stoppani provides a video with a workout, nutrition tip, or lifestyle hack to accelerate your results. There's also an extensive training overview to prepare you for the program.
Don't let yourself get soft while you get strong. Follow Stoppani's nine nutrition rules for building muscle, and choose from four meal plans designed for people who work out at different times of day. Stick to the program and you'll maximize muscle and strength growth naturally.
Jim Stoppani received his doctorate in exercise physiology with a minor in biochemistry from the University of Connecticut. Following graduation, he served as a postdoctoral research fellow in the prestigious John B. Pierce Laboratory and Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology at Yale University School of Medicine, where he investigated the effects of exercise and diet on gene regulation in muscle tissue.
