Philosophy

"Hypertrophy is volume, proximity to failure and consistency over years. There is no magic split - just hard sets in the right rep range, eaten and slept on."

Career & achievements

  • Multiple-time Norwegian bodybuilding champion in his weight class
  • 10+ years of competitive training and stage experience
  • Repeat top-3 placings at regional and national-level shows
  • Coaches athletes through full contest prep, peak week and posing
  • Built a physique through 100% natural, drug-free training

The story

Lars has been training seriously for over a decade and competing in Norwegian bodybuilding federations for most of that time. He's stood on top of the podium in his weight class at multiple regional and national-level shows across Norway, and he knows exactly what separates a placing physique from a winning one.

His approach is built on what actually works in a real prep: precise volume landmarks, brutal mind-muscle connection, strict tempo, and food/training data tracked to the gram. No guesswork, no 'vibes' - just a system refined over 10+ years of stepping on stage.

If you want to build a stage-ready physique - or just want to look like you actually lift - Lars brings championship-level programming and the lived experience of someone who has done the work, peaked on the day, and walked off with the trophy.

Lars's top tips

  • Take the last 1–2 sets to true failure on isolations
  • Stretch under load matters more than peak contraction
  • Track everything - weight, reps, RIR and notes
  • Eat protein every 3–4 hours, no exceptions
