As we head into the new year, you should start reflecting on all that you’ve accomplished this year, but also what you’ll accomplish in 2026. 

Maybe you have a plateau that’s lasted a few months… or even years. Maybe you want to increase your squat in the offseason. Maybe you just want to clean more. 

Peak Strength’s December update is going to continue supporting those goals with new workouts, exercises, and success stories that you can draw inspiration from. 

Plateau Breaker Bonus Workouts

Starting with 9 new bonus workouts dedicated to focusing on our most important testing exercises. 

Found in the “Plateau Breakers” section of Bonus Workouts, you’ll be able to replace your strength workouts or add an extra workout to your training week for squat, bench press, or clean.

The workouts are broken into phases so that you can have a way to improve no matter what phase of training you are in:

• Plateau Breaker I: should be used in the Exposure and Comprehension phases

• Plateau Breaker II: should be used in the Ascension phase

• Plateau Breaker III: should be used in the Summit phase

28 New Exercises & Movements

In support of all the new bonus workouts in Peak Strength, we’ve also added 28 new exercises to the movement library. 

Many of these exercises focus on rotational strength, explosiveness, and hypertrophy so training never gets stale.

Peak Strength Success Stories

Lastly, we have 2 more inspiring success stories from athletes who used Peak Strength to reach their goals and literally become champions. 

• Isaiah Thomas shows how consistency during the offseason can lead to huge strength gains and a breakout season as a starting linebacker at the collegiate level. 

• Sarah Helen Davis shows the importance of continued strength training in-season, with a 17% strength increase during her championship season in the USSSA. 

Like Sarah and Isaiah, we should all reflect on how far and how much we’ve grown this year. Continue setting goals, stick to the plan, and execute consistently.
