WHY DOES IT FEEL LIKE YOU’RE
STUCK LIFTING THE SAME WEIGHTS?

You’re not lacking effort, you’re held back by hidden weaknesses in the six core movement patterns that drive performance.

PLATEAUS AREN’T ABOUT LACK OF GRIND, THEY’RE ABOUT WEAK LINKS

When one lift lags behind, the others suffer. Holes in pressing, pulling, or squatting strength slow progress everywhere and limit what you can Rx in WODs.

FOCUSING ON WOD-ONLY TRAINING WON’T MAKE YOU STRONGER

Metcons and Olympic lifts alone can’t build the raw, foundational strength you need to move heavier loads. Without targeted strength cycles, you’ll keep hitting the same numbers year after year.

YOU NEED ALL 6 MOVEMENTS DIALED IN, NOT JUST THE “BIG 3”

Bench Press • Deadlift • Back Squat • Front Squat • Strict Press • Pendlay Row. These six patterns form the backbone of true absolute strength, giving you more pulling power, more pressing stability, and stronger legs for every lift and WOD.

IT’S TIME TO FIX YOUR WEAKNESSES, AND LIFT HEAVIER, FASTER.

First, you need to understand something:

True progress isn’t about grinding harder. It’s about finding your weak link and improving it with the right plan.



Raw Strength starts with a detailed assessment to pinpoint your individual strengths and gaps, then matches you to one of 15 tailored progression pathways that target exactly what’s holding you back.

Here’s how Raw Strength helps you break through:

 

  • Comprehensive 6-Lift Focus: Bench, deadlift, back squat, front squat, strict press, Pendlay row, everything you need for a stronger base.
  • Tailored Programming: Two-phase training blocks, custom-matched to your test results so you improve faster where it matters most.
  • Carry-Over to WODs: Better absolute strength means smoother Olympic lifts, stronger gymnastics, and heavier Rx weights with confidence.
  • Expert Coaching Support: WODprep’s coaching methods guide you through every step with the clarity of 1:1 instruction, without the high price tag.

 

Good news, you don’t have to guess anymore…WODprep is proud to introduce Raw Strength,  the only strength-focused program designed to find your weaknesses, build your six key lifts, and unlock PRs that carry over to every workout you do.

 

Best of all: Raw Strength is included inside WODprep Academy, along with the full course library, online programming, and coaching support.

The results speak for themselves!

Meet your instructor,

Ben Dziwulski

Over the last several years I’ve been a box owner, trainer, regional-level athlete, and perhaps my favorite – a full time online coach.

My coaching tactics have been featured in BOXROX, Tabata Times, WodNews, RX Magazine, The WOD Life, and WOD Nation to name a few. As you’ll find out, I like to teach in a crystal-clear, easy-to-understand way. Most importantly, I like RESULTS.

 

So if you’re trying to finally “Rx” this difficult movement, I’ve got you covered!

 

So far, hundreds of athletes have made DRASTIC improvements using this exact training system.

 

Not sure if this is right for you? Check out the FAQ’s. You make the call.

 

And make sure you read about my unconditional money back guarantee. I want you to join the Rx division without any hesitations, and I’m willing to put everything on the line to make sure you are successful!

Thousands of athletes trust WODprep. The results speak for themselves!

18.1 – 282 reps – all TTB unbroken (last year I had to break up 4-4). Never would have done that last year! Thank you WODprep coaches and TTB Transformed!

Justin / Verified Customer

I just wrapped up the course last week. Within the last 2 weeks, things have really clicked when it comes to stringing my TTB together. The biggest thing for me has been lat engagement – that really helped me to stay consistent throughout workout

Angelo / Verified Customer

I just wanted to say – we had strict toes to bar in the workout today and I did 8 unbroken, 24 total! I couldn’t even do one of these 2 weeks ago!

Kim / Verified Customer

Love your Open Prep videos. I am a Master’s Male Rx athlete in the 40-44 age group. This is my 5th year competing in the Open. 
I have been following your tips for the last 2 years.

David / Verified Customer

Good day today! We did Annie for part of our WOD, and it was the first time I was able to do it Rx. Got all of the DU’s unbroken!

Bill / Verified Customer

After all the advice and tips earlier in the week from WODprep, 
I was able to complete 17.2 with 12 BMU’s! Thank you!

Jay / Verified Customer

Our guarantee to you!

Our guarantee to you! If you don’t LOVE this training program, 
I insist that you get 100% of your money back.

Let me tell you why … I invite you to use WODprep Academy for a few weeks and measure your progress (which we’ll do inside the program). All I ask is that you watch the results. I’m confident you’ll be impressed.

 

I built these courses over YEARS; pulling from both the self-learning AND coaching aspects of bar muscle ups. Using things that I’ve taught myself, and things that I’ve used to teach hundreds of athletes just like you.

 

I’ve thrown out all the things that didn’t work, which leaves everything that actually works, and THAT is what’ you’ll find on the inside of WODprep Academy. These courses aren’t just about becoming an RX athlete, it’s about knocking down the biggest obstacle that stands in your way on the road to becoming a better athlete.

 

It’s about simple coaching, my life’s work. And if I can help you permanently join the Rx division…or compete…or help you beat a few of your workout buddies in the next WOD…I consider it a job well done.

 

So here’s my simple offer: If you don’t LOVE this training program, I insist that you get 100% of your money back. It’s simple: Join the program and see for yourself.

Got Questions? We've Got You

How do I start Raw Strength?
You’ll gain access to the course, by purchasing WODprep Academy directly on the WODprep website using our secure payment platform. You’ll receive WODprep Academy as long as you’re a member and have access to the video library, rehab protocols, daily programming, educational courses plus WODprep coaching via our online training platform.
Raw Strength is a specialized 9-week powerlifting cycle designed to build absolute strength. It focuses on increasing your 1-rep max in the six core lifts: Squat, Bench, Deadlift, Press, Front Squat, and Pendlay Row.
Yes. The course platform is fully mobile-friendly, allowing you to watch the “Fault Fixer” videos and access your daily training PDFs from your phone while you are at the gym.
Setup is instant. You receive your login details via email immediately after purchase. Your first step is to complete the “Test Week” to establish your baseline numbers.
The educational content and calculator are hosted on our web platform (Teachable). The programming itself is delivered via downloadable PDFs that you can print or view on your phone.
Yes. The course begins with a detailed “How to use this program” video that explains how to perform the test week, how to use the calculator to find your weaknesses, and how to select your specific track.
This is a comprehensive, static 9-week cycle, but your lifetime access includes any future updates or bonus modules we might add to the curriculum at no extra cost.
Yes, as long as you have the necessary equipment. Since it focuses on the “Big 3” powerlifts plus overhead work, a well-equipped garage gym with a rack and barbell is perfect.
You will need to download the programming PDF that corresponds to your specific weakness (identified after Test Week).
Yes. We welcome you to the program and explain the philosophy of “Absolute Strength” and why it is the foundation for all other athletic performance.
Who is Raw Strength designed for?
It is for athletes who feel weak in their static lifts. If your engine is good but you get crushed by heavy barbells in WODs, or if you just want to take a break from metcons to focus purely on getting strong, this is for you.
We recommend dialing back your metcons significantly while on Raw Strength. The volume and intensity are high, and trying to do full CrossFit training on top of it often leads to burnout. It works best as an off-season priority cycle.
Yes. The program is percentage-based, so the weight scales to your current strength level. We also include “Fault Fixer” videos to correct your technique from the ground up.
After your Test Week, you plug your numbers into our calculator. It identifies your specific imbalances (e.g., “Squat Weakness” vs. “Pulling Weakness”) and assigns you one of 15 unique programming tracks tailored to fix your limiting factor.
WPx Strength is an ongoing, lower-volume accessory track designed to run alongside CrossFit. Raw Strength is a standalone, high-intensity immersion cycle designed to peak your strength in 9 weeks.
Yes. The physiology of strength building is the same for everyone. The program uses your own relative strength numbers to prescribe the load.
Yes. The Spider Chart calculator is built to find exactly where you are stuck. If your Overhead Press is lagging behind your Bench Press, the program will assign you a track that prioritizes overhead volume.
This is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Once you finish the 9-week cycle, you can return to your regular training (like WP Compete or Classic) with a much higher strength base.
Yes. To get the advertised results from a peaking cycle like this, you need to hit the prescribed sessions. Missing days will disrupt the progressive overload needed for a new 1RM.
We do not offer a free trial, but we offer a lifetime money-back guarantee. If you complete the cycle and don’t get stronger, we refund you.
How often should I train?
The program typically involves 4-5 heavy lifting sessions per week, depending on the specific track you are assigned.
Most athletes add significant poundage to their total in 9 weeks. It is common to see 20+ lb PRs on squats and deadlifts if you stick to the plan and eat enough to recover.
Yes. The course includes a “Fault Fixer” video library where we break down the most common errors for every lift (like rounding the back or collapsing knees) and how to fix them.
You track your lifts throughout the 9 weeks and then perform a “Retest Week” in Week 10 to establish your new 1-rep maxes and measure your gains.
Yes. We provide detailed breakdown videos for the Bench Press, Deadlift, Squat, and all accessory movements to ensure you are lifting with safe and efficient technique.
This is primarily a self-guided video course. For personalized video review from a coach, you would need to upgrade to our 1-on-1 coaching service.
Yes. Strength is often the primary bottleneck for Rx. If you increase your absolute strength (1RM), the sub-maximal weights used in CrossFit workouts (like 225lb deadlifts) become much easier to cycle.
If you miss a week, we recommend repeating the previous week’s volume before moving forward. Strength cycles rely on cumulative fatigue and adaptation, so skipping ahead can be dangerous.
Yes. We use “Linear Periodization” and wave loading. The volume starts high with moderate weight and slowly tapers down to low volume with heavy weight to peak you for a PR.
Yes. You can connect with other athletes running the cycle in the WODprep community groups.
What’s the cost of Raw Strength?
Individual courses are found inside WODprep Academy, which starts at $59 per month!
Yes. We offer a 100% lifetime money-back guarantee. If you do the work and don’t see the results, simply email us for a refund.
here is no subscription to cancel. You pay once and own the course forever.
We sometimes offer discounts during launch periods or bundles with WODprep Academy. WODprep athletes on other tracks sometimes get special offers.
No need. You have lifetime access, so you can start and stop the cycle whenever it fits your schedule.
You get the 10-week training cycle (Test week + 9 weeks), the Raw Strength Calculator, the Fault Fixer library, and the Mobility protocols.
Yes. If you retest and your weaknesses change, the calculator will assign you a different 9-week track next time, so you can use the program multiple times for different goals.
Yes. You can earn commissions by referring friends via our Ambassador program.
No. It is a single purchase.
N/A for one-time purchases.
Best powerlifting program for CrossFitters?
Raw Strength is specifically designed to fit the needs of functional fitness athletes. It builds the “Absolute Strength” ceiling that makes all other CrossFit movements (like thrusters and cleans) feel lighter and easier.
You enter your 1-rep maxes for the Back Squat, Front Squat, Deadlift, Bench Press, Strict Press, and Pendlay Row. The calculator generates a “Spider Graph” to visualize your imbalances and assigns you a specific program to fix them.
You need a standard barbell, a squat rack, a flat bench, and plenty of plates. It is designed around classic “garage gym” powerlifting gear.
Absolute strength acts as a buffer. If your max deadlift is 500lbs, a 225lb deadlift is only 45% of your max. If your max is 300lbs, that same lift is 75%. Getting stronger makes everything else less taxing.
Yes. We include a “Daily Mobility Follow Along” routine. Heavy lifting requires good range of motion to prevent injury, so we build that maintenance into the program.
We focus on the Bench Press, Deadlift, Front Squat, Back Squat, Strict Press, and Pendlay Row. We believe these six movements cover all the primary force vectors needed for a complete athlete.
Yes, but listen to your body. The intensity is high. Masters athletes may need to take extra rest days between the heavy sessions to ensure adequate recovery.
For the heavy Bench Press and Squat sessions, a spotter or a rack with safety pins is highly recommended. Safety is paramount when testing 1-rep maxes.
It is a strict barbell row where the weight starts from a dead stop on the floor each rep. It builds explosive pulling power and a strong upper back, which is critical for supporting heavy squats and deadlifts.
It will make you denser. While hypertrophy is a side effect, the primary goal is neurological strength adaptation (making your nervous system more efficient) rather than just bodybuilding puffiness.
