Van Candito heb ik het 6-week strength programma gedaan (van maart 2016 tot september 2017) en was er erg tevreden over. Het was mijn eerste powerlifting programma en ik maakte er goede vordering op in die anderhalf jaar.
Een volledige analyse van het 6-week strength programma door Izzy kan je hier vinden (sinds oktober 2018 volg ik een programma van Izzy):

Het is wel powerlifting specifiek dus als dat je doel niet is hoef je er niet verder naar te kijken.
En review van Candito's Linear program (geschreven door Izzy) wat veel meer algemeen is:

Overall
Honestly, Candito’s linear program is very, very solid. Out of all the beginner options we’ve looked at thus far, I’d consider it the best with a few caveats.
I don’t think it is appropriate for a true beginner. By a true beginner I’m talking about someone with virtually zero experience in the gym. The program offers too many choices, too many exercises, and too little frequency for this group. For you true novices, I still recommend buying a copy of Starting Strength.
That said, if you’ve already spent 3-9 months building a solid base on Starting Strength, StrongLifts, or some other full body 5×5 program, I think this would be an absolutely excellent option for “advanced-novices”. You get the freedom to choose some of your own exercises, you start incorporating some degree of autoregulation in the progression scheme, the program is highly specific, fatigue is managed properly, and, just in general, this is a well thought out program.
Along our continuum of “good, better, best”, I wouldn’t hesitate to say this program is somewhere between better and best for trainees of the right advancement. For you late stage novices and early intermediates (6-12 months of experience or so), I’ll just repeat myself and say this is a great choice for you if you have competitive interests in powerlifting.
