NOT SURE WHERE TO START? TAKE THE QUIZ →
Real gym programming built from horror-villain archetypes. Strength, mass, conditioning and control—with scaling guidance for newer lifters.
OPEN THE TRAINING ARCHIVES →
Battle-tested food from the TSF kitchen. Cooked, weighed, eaten, repeated—and explained clearly enough to use even if macro tracking is new to you.
ENTER THE FEEDING →Tell us how you want to train and how you actually eat. Training feel is weighted most heavily, while your goal and equipment refine the workout match.
CHOOSE BY THE TOOLS YOU HAVE — NOT THE NAME ON THE GYM. IF YOUR BIG-BOX GYM HAS TURF, A SLED OR ROOM FOR HEAVY CARRIES, PICK THE FIRST OPTION.
Training feel carries the most weight; your goal and available equipment refine the training match. Food style and priority shape the recipe match. This is a starting point—not a diagnosis or prescription.
