READ THIS: -This program is for YOU, who wants to train every other day. -Goal is to improve in the big three movements (bench, squat, deadlift) and maximize hypertrophy using optimized isolation exercises. -Personally as a father, I cannot set my training for certain week days. I need flexibility and optimal time usage, which this program allows. -Ignore weeks doing this program. Just do the sessions every other day. -This program allows flexibility, if you want or need a day off, you can absolutely do it. If you take a day off, don't skip a session, just continue from where you left. -There is around 10-15 sets per muscle group per week average, which is well enough to maximize muscle growth. -You can alternate the exercises to your liking, if some exercise doesn't suit you or causes too much fatique, you can change it or remove completely. -Each session is going to take around 1 hr 30 minutes. -Free weight movements 6-8 reps -Cable and machine movements 10-12 reps to encourage clean techinque. -There is deload week on week 8. It drops the working weights to 60%, sets to 2 instead of three and reps to 12-15 instead of 8-10. If you experience too much fatique before week 8 you can do the deload earlier, or replace normal training days with deload days. -I encourage doing drop sets as finisher if you need extra volume for certain muscle group. -I encourage doing sets to failure, at least the last set. -I designed this program myself. The exercises I have picked are my personal favourites and also being proved to be the most optimal ones for muscle growth. -I have checked the program to be somewhat valid with ChatGPT, which seemed to have no complaints. Below is the introduction it wrote about this program! "This every other day split alternates between upper and lower body focus while emphasizing progressive overload in key lifts.

Common questions

Yes, Rasse's every other day muscle building program is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 8 weeks are fully unlocked.

This program is built around a full gym. Make sure you have consistent access before starting, since the progression model assumes you can perform the same movements week over week.

Each session typically takes around 90 minutes to complete. That estimate covers your working sets but doesn't account for warm-up or rest between sets, so budget a little extra time when you're first learning the movements.

Rasse's every other day muscle building program is structured around 4 training days per week, with rest days built in to allow for recovery. The Boostcamp app lets you reschedule sessions if your week doesn't go to plan.

The program runs for 8 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Rasse's every other day muscle building program is available inside the Boostcamp app, free on iOS and Android. Once you download the app, you can search for the program by name. The app tracks all your sets and weights automatically, so you always know exactly what to do next session.
