FLEX: German-Volume Training 6-Week Cycle [E-Book]

FLEX: GERMAN-VOLUME TRAINING

Phase_01 Cycle_01 / 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.

In this 6-week cycle, we’ll see a German Volume Training (GVT) approach that will challenge and probably change you if you do it right. Expect three high-volume GVT-style training days each week (two upper body, one lower body). We will balance things out with two lower-RPE days and, of course, two full rest days on Thursdays and Sundays. Trust me—you are going to need them.

Prepare to dive into some serious 10x10 and 8x8 supersets, progressively building each week as we adapt and grow.

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.
• Anyone looking to improve their body composition through a periodized approach to muscle gain and fat loss.
