  • 3 Juggernaut Base Method Program Spreadsheet

In this program, athletes were asked to complete a main lift for the day, followed by a workout. Nowadays, I’d estimate 2 out of every 3 boxes follow this methodology at least a couple of times a week. And, you’d be hard pressed to find any of the most common competitive CrossFit programs not programming daily strength training.

Juggernaut Training Method Overview

Based upon Juggernaut Training Systems and Chad Wesley Smith, the Juggernaut Method incorporates significant amounts of submaximal work to build work capacity in the lifter without overly taxing the CNS. Not specific to powerlifting, the Juggernaut Method will help athletes of many disciplines get stronger.

Written by Calgary Barbell, the 16 week and 8 week programs are designed to improve the squat, bench press, and deadlift of the athlete in preparation for a powerlifting meet. You can, however, run them even if you’re not prepping for a meet. Both programs are quite similar, with the primary difference between the two being that the 16 week program has a more full progression of each lift, whereas the 8 week program is more a training snapshot.

Update: Added “Revised” version of the 16 week of the program that as floating around Reddit. I also edited the original spreadsheets to make them work with LB or KG very easily.

Calgary Barbell 16 Week Program Spreadsheet KG + LB (REVISED)

  1. This is modified version of Calgary Barbell’s 16 Week program. What changed? Weights that were based on RPE (e.g. 3x5 @RPE 8) have been converted using a % of 1RM estimation to recommended loads.
    1. So 3x5 @RPE 8 would turn into 3x5 @ 86%.
  2. Since the entire point of RPE is to modify your workout based on daily strength fluctuations, these estimations should be taken with a grain of salt. They are flexible suggestions. It is OK to lift less or more than the recommended value.
  3. If you feel so inclined, you can modify the table below to your own preferred % estimation.

What is the main difference between the 8 week and 16 week programs?

Aside from the obvious program length difference, the 16 week program allows for a “fuller progression” of the lifts, whereas the 8 week program is more of a “training snapshot” (Bryce’s words). Practically speaking, there’s more exercise variation in the 16 week program. If you can afford it, run the 16 week program. If you need to prep for a competition in 8 weeks, then the 8 week program is a better choice. You can also try out Calgary Barbell’s training methods with the 8 week program, which is less of a commitment than the 16 week program.

How long are training sessions for these programs?

Many people report training sessions around 1.5 hours (90 minutes).

What are the three numbers in the tempo column?

Descent time, pause time at bottom of lift, ascent time. All measured in seconds.
