The Eze Squat Super Total Program

Several years ago, I released a program to strengthen an athlete’s front squat. The program was called the “Eze Front Squat Program” after the very athlete that I designed the program for. To date this is one or our most popular Free Programs.

Yesterday, I wrote a new program for one of my online team members. I loved some of the new concepts that we used, and I decided to release a version to all of you. My readers are the heartbeat of Team Mash Elite. Without all of you we would just be a bunch of meatheads lifting in some cold dungeon.

Dave Tate taught me a longtime ago to give 4 times as much Free Material compared to the material that I sale. I have always tried to stick to that rule. I love the barbell. I have spent my whole life trying to understand the cold steel. The fact that all of you want to learn more about the barbell gives a little more meaning to my life.

This program is designed to strengthen the Snatch, Clean & Jerk, Squat, Bench, and Deadlift. It is also designed to strengthen and stabilize the Front Squat. This plan should bring lots of gains to the squat, deadlift, and the Olympic lifts.

It is a simple plan. I only included the basics. If you have more time to get jacked for summer, here are a few assistance exercises to add in:

Upper Body suggested sets and reps
Pull-Ups 3 x submaximal reps
Weighted Push-ups 3 x submaximal reps
Bentover Rows 3 x 5-10
Dips 3 x submaximal reps
KB Upright Rows 3 x 5-10
Muscle-Ups 3 x submaximal reps
Rope Climb 3 sets
DB Tricep Extensions 3 x 5-10
Axle Bar Curls 3 x 5-10

Lower Body suggested sets and reps
Lunges 3 x 10 ea leg
Unilateral RDLS 3×6-8 reps per leg
Carries 3 x 30-60 seconds

Just a heads up, I have included a new concept to my workout. There are some plus sets, which means that the athlete will be asked to do as many past that rep scheme as possible. I don’t want these taken to failure. I want you to stop with a rep or two in the tank. It will look like this:

5RM(1st rep paused 3 sec), then -10% for 2×5 not paused with last set 5+

Everything is the same as all of my other programs except on the last down set I am asking you to push it past the 5 reps.

This program should taper you for a massive 5-lift total. I hope you guys enjoy this plan. Remember if you enjoy these articles, you might want to check out the “Mash Squat Every Day” E-Book. There are four twelve week programs in that book along with a lot of cool information.

  1. Thanks for the great programming! Needed a few clarifications:

    does Snatch Max Effort Snatch Pull x 2, Snatch x2, Hang Snatch x 1, and OH Squat x 2 Max mean;1 x snatch to a max for the day. Then a complex of (2xsnatch pull, 2xsnatch, 2xhang snatch, and 2xOHS) to a max for the day?

    And for alternate stance DL just mean conventional vs sumo or are there any other stances you recommend?
