The Baki Maxing Plan
Decent programme, but you may have to skip ahead if you’re already used to volume. I started on phase 3
Great Program Once You Understand the Structure. At first, I felt like the Boostcamp workout was repeating the same exercises over and over, and I wasn’t sure if the program was giving me enough variety. However, after following it more closely, I realized the workouts are intentionally designed that way. The structure focuses on progressive overload, increasing weight over time, building strength, and gaining muscle.
I think it's a great program for conduct a body recomp. Personally had to adjust some exercises do to an old injury.
I'm on the first phase and I really like the full body split. The exercises are the basic ones who actually works. No bs, straight to the point. Good stimulus through the week. I just change the unilateral exercises sometimes.
Having only done the first 4 weeks of this program before it triggered for a review, take this into account. You look at this and it’s just three sets, so you have to really push those sets and make great effort to continue progressing with weight. I would guess that if you can’t make the next weight jump, you would just add another set or two, but no mention of that in any of the notes. There are good recommendations or instructions for what to do for most exercises - tweaks to achieve a certain result - and alternatives for most exercises. I did make very slight changes depending on equipment availability and swapped out one of the quad lifts from a squat pattern to leg extensions (less hip pain). No big changes.
I think 15 to 20 hacksquats or any kind of squat is a bit much. I switched that to leg extension
I’m currently 4 weeks in and have been enjoying the workouts.
As someone who’s been lifting for a while now, 4 weeks in so far and this plans has proven effective even to an advanced lifter. I would highly recommend this plan to anyone at any skill level.
Thank you frfr
Not new to gym but had a longer than 10 year break mainly concentrating on cycling. This was a nice program to get back into the swing of things at the gym and combined well with my combined weight loss goals. I’m into week 20 now, almost at my goal body fat percentage without injury or any issues, recommended.
