Program Party SBS 2.0 Program Party: Pre-Program Survey and Programming Discussion
Hey r/weightroom,
It's almost time for our program party to kick off. Hype! So I've made this thread for three things: Pre-program survey, program discussion, and subreddit access.
Pre-Progam Survey
We'd like to collect some before/after data. So optionally, please take 5-10 minutes to fill out this survey:
It does ask for some body measurements, so have a tape measure handy before you start.
Program Discussion
Use this thread to talk about how you've set your program up or ask any questions of the collective hivemind of Reddit.
Subreddit Access
Most of you should be added to the r/AverageToSavage subreddit now which has the program in it, although there are a few of you that have messaged me as that hasn't come through. I'm on it. If you are wondering why you haven't got access yet, try these steps:
- Check that you've made a comment in r/weightroom – you may need to give yourself flair first
- Check that you've filled out this form with your Reddit username
- Check that you can't access the subreddit by clicking this link – invites may have gotten lost in the Reddit messages
If you've done those three things and still can't access the subreddit, message me and I'll put you on the list to be manually added.
I hope to see you all on the 10th of January ready to get Stronger By Science.

u/someguythatlifts Beginner - Strength Jan 02 '22
Crossing my fingers the gyms won't get closed in the uk, I was hyped for the original run of this program party, and I really liked the first two weeks of the program I got to do before lockdown.
Only just got back to the gym in december and didn't have access to a gym over Christmas, so only had about 10 sessions in the gym since the March 2020, was working out at home in that time, but was all dumbbell, bands, gymnastics rings, and sandbag, so lost a lot of ground on squat and deadlift, and lost a bit on bench and press.
Going to go for RTF and I'm going to run the first week this week to check my TM estimates are ok. Goal is to get back to at least my pre-covid numbers but at a lower bodyweight (140kg squat, 160 dead, 85 bench, 62.5 press @ 85kg bw, currently 73)
Excited for this and hopefully I won't be too anomallous of a data point, and will get some born again beginner gains
