A Steadfast Season

Hypertrophy — Starter

6 weeks · 4 days a week · Hypertrophy

The philosophy

A 4-day upper/lower bodybuilding split built for muscle growth. Each week pairs two upper-body and two lower-body sessions, rotating compound anchors with isolation work to hit every muscle group twice. Reps live in the 8-15 hypertrophy zone with controlled tempo and moderate rest. Log every set as weight x reps and aim to add reps or load each week while keeping 1-2 reps in reserve. Ideal for lifters with 3-6 months of consistent training who want a simple, repeatable structure to drive size.
