Since The M2 Method is based off of reasonable projected maxes it works well for lifters of all levels. It also provides a variety of options for the max effort exercises each week by incorporating limiting range of motion and/or accommodating resistance.

I’ll be posting more updates as Natalie gets closer to the meet.
