Josh Bryant

Get the best of bodybuilding & powerlifting to develop size, symmetry, & strength. Over a decade ago, I co-authored with the legendary, Brian Dobson, the iconic, best-selling, Metroflex Gym Powerbuilding Basics.

The powerbuilding principles have stood the test of time.

Over time, I have refined the powerbuilding approach by logging thousands of hours in the trenches with average Joes & top-level pros.

Arnold started off as a powerlifter & Franco Columbu successfully competed in the world's strongest man. The most muscular men of all-time have trained using a hybrid methodology universally before the arrival of extreme drugs like HGH, insulin & whatever the hell else is lurking around today.

Far too many in the iron game believe you have to either train like a bodybuilder or a powerlifter. There is no "or". Maximizing development requires you train like a bodybuilder AND a powerlifter & being a powerlifter with no weak link requires you to train like a bodybuilder!

Hence, the name of the game is powerbuilding!

I have the perfect plan for you that carefully balances high reps, low reps, fast reps, slow reps, compound movement, peak contraction ones, free weights & machines!

Train Like The Best

Powerbuilding built Ronnie Coleman, the greatest bodybuilder of all time, who has set a muscularity standard no one today is close to matching! Coleman trained with low reps and heavy weight like a powerlifter, including an 800-pound squat for a single and the same weight for a double in the deadlift. Additionally, Coleman executed extremely high reps on a variety of exercises.

Put a Little Old Back In The New School

Doug Young, served as Arnold's mass-building consultant. Young, a powerbuilder, included high volume sets and reps like a bodybuilder. Arnold started off as a powerlifter but the most muscular men of all time have trained using a hybrid methodology universally before the arrival of extreme drugs like HGH, insulin and whatever the hell else is lurking around today.

Train Core Lifts

Big movements produce big results! Core lifts must form the core of your training program, even if pure aesthetics is your goal. These movements build the most muscle mass and produce the highest levels of inter & intra muscle coordination, and increase High Threshold Motor Unit (HTMU) recruitment, which have the highest potential for growth while naturally spiking your anabolic hormones!

Varying Rep Ranges

The reason strong bodybuilders have a dense look is myogenic tone, which refers to a state of partial muscle activation. It means even while resting your nervous system is keeping some tension in the muscle, theoretically maintaining a state of readiness; if a situation arose, necessitating instantaneous force production. This lends to a dense, grainy look when dieted down!

Isolation Exercises

Isolation exercises play a non-negotiable role. Core movements are more functional and natural but to "super naturally" develop certain muscles, you have to overload them with principles of isolation. You'll find that in this Powerbuilding program.
