I train like this too

I’m Mike Tennant: strength coach, natural strongman world champion and British deadlift record holder. I’ve competed in powerlifting, strongman and physique, and these days I’m just as likely to be swinging a mace.

Over ten years I’ve coached more than 500 people, from complete beginners to British record holders. Every plan on this site is built on the same system I use with them.
