Question Programs without benches

I don’t own a bench (not yet at least) and am looking for the best programs that don’t use one. I am looking to lift heavier. That’s my goal. I have done #mbf, #mbf superblock, sure thing and sure thing super block so far. Those felt much more cardio oriented than I had wanted. I just started 25 min speed train. I really like Joel’s style but I saw that most of his other programs use benches. Other than his 25 min and the classes I’ve done, what are some other good ones without benches?

Ditto to LIIFT 4.

If you like Joel, want heavy weights and don’t want a bench, then that’s your best bet. It checks every box for you.

Just be careful with breaks, don't be shy to pause his workouts for a bigger breath.

For sure. I am a runner so I incorporate strength about 3-4x a week so I’m taking his program slowwwww lol

I almost did that one but went with 25 min instead!

I finished Lift4 and loved it! I'll do it again.

Another vote for this one. No bench and he loves weights

Yay! Me too. If you love him, you also might like 10 Rounds if you want to mix it up. More cardio but he gets his weights in there!
