Jim says that he feels a lot better on a two day per week weight training program but like us all trys to do more, I personally feel given most people's life stresses two days are enough, I personally will be adding a day for mobility and stretching with perhaps some single joint exercises ie bicep curls, pushdowns, lateral raises etc As you know Jim's programs are based around Squat, bench, deadlift, OHP I swapped squat for safety bar and I'll probably swap deadlift for Hexbar Deadlift these are personal preferences as I'm no long competing as a powerlifter and want to strengthen my core and protect my lower back.

Common questions

Yes, 531 Grey pubes is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 6 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 60 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.

531 Grey pubes is structured around 2 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 6 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

531 Grey pubes 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.
