WHAT DO I DO IF I MISSED A PROGRAMMED
WORKOUT?
If you happen to miss one of the programmed workouts - do not try
to squeeze it in on a different programmed day or do two in one
day. This will cause excess fatigue and can put you at risk for injury.
Continue with the scheduled workouts to be sure to stay on track!
You got this!
HOW MUCH CARDIO SHOULD I BE DOING WITH
THIS STRENGTH/HYPERTROPHY PROGRAM?
This is a 12-week strength and hypertrophy program to gain
muscle mass and muscle strength. Excessive cardio can hinder
muscle growth which could delay your results. Please follow the
programmed cardio that we have included to yield the most
effective results.
WHEN WILL I BE ABLE TO SEE RESULTS?
There are several factors that allow for an individual to yield
results. CONSISTENCY is the number one rule when in comes to
noticeable progress. Make sure to stay consistent with fueling your
body through nutrition and staying on your weekly schedule to be
sure you are functional at the appropriate intensity. In addition,
quality sleep and proper hydration are keys to success. Men and
women all yield results at different rates. Sticking to the above tips
will give you a solid foundation to putting on muscle and making it
stick.
