FLEX: 5RM Strength + Hypertrophy 6-Week Cycle [E-Book]

FLEX: 5RM STRENGTH + HYPERTROPY

Phase_01 Cycle_02 / 6-Week Cycle

FLEX is a strength & bodybuilding program tailored for those aiming to LOOK THE PART. FLEX uniquely combines functional strength with traditional bodybuilding for 60 minutes of training to mold a physique that’s as capable as it is impressive.

This 6-week cycle is geared towards maintaining a relatively high volume while also building intensity and loading in our training as we focus on building top-line strength. 

These 6 weeks will build to a 5RM test in the Front Squat, Bench Press, and Sumo Deadlift. The groundwork laid in Phase 1, Cycle 1 will pay off as we pivot to lifting heavier weights while still maintaining a significant volume of work. 

*While it is ideal, you DO NOT need to complete Phase 1, Cycle 1 to reap the benefits of this strength-biased cycle

What’s Included:

• 6 weeks of strength and hypertrophy training designed to build muscle and reduce the risk of injury while still maintaining your current conditioning.
• 5 training days per week.
• Intro content with detailed program explanation and best practices to get the most out of your training. 

Who’s this for? 

• Anything with some training experience looking to change things up, improve strength, build muscle, and reduce the risk of injury.
• Anyone looking for a change of pace from constant high-intensity training.
• Busy individuals with 45-60 minutes per day, 5 days a week, available to dedicate to their training.
