The first phase (6 weeks) is hypertrophy-focused, mostly in the style of body building. Exercise selection has been slightly altered to favor grappling performance. The second phase (5 weeks) is focused on strength and power. Rep ranges get smaller for some exercises, and longer rest times between sets are recommended. New exercises are introduced for grappling power (strength for time). Phases are bridges by deload weeks, where the objective is to give connective tissues and central fatigue some time to recover. Each week involves cardio sessions to build endurance.

Common questions

Yes, Hybrid Split for Hobbyist Grapplers is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 13 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.

Hybrid Split for Hobbyist Grapplers is structured around 7 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 13 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.
