Extreme Hourglass X: Part 2 (Weeks 13-24)

Program Description

This is my current training plan as a novice lifter focused on reshaping my physique. It’s designed to support recomping, cutting, and lean bulking phases—though it pairs especially well with a recomposition or lean bulk. Each workout is carefully structured to target muscle groups that enhance an exaggerated hourglass figure without adding width to the waist. This is Phase 2 of my ‘Extreme Hourglass X’ series. If your goal doesn’t prioritize building the upper glute shelf, the original ‘Extreme Hourglass X’ is still highly effective for developing balanced curves. ⚠️ Note for Beginners: This plan involves high training volume and a 5–6 day split, which may be overwhelming if you’re new to lifting. If you’re starting out, I recommend modifying this routine—begin with just 3–4 days per week, skip exercises when needed, and take full rest days to prevent injury or burnout. You do not need to train 6x/week to see results, especially early on in your fitness journey. On lower body days, you’ll find two warm-up movements at the top of each session to activate your glutes and strengthen the mind-muscle connection. Exercises are listed in order of priority, so beginners should focus on the first few movements and hold off on the later ones until strength and consistency are built. This plan has helped me see amazing results—and I hope it does the same for you. 💪🏼✨
