This program is designed to build strength across a range of compound lifts using moderate to high rep ranges (3–30 reps), while also progressively increasing strength in accessory and isolation movements. The primary goal is to drive muscle growth (hypertrophy), using strength gains as a key indicator of progress. If only the first set has an RPE listed, it's because it is used to set the initial load appropriately. Subsequent sets are performed with the same weight, and while they may feel more challenging due to accumulating fatigue, the goal is to complete them with the same load.

Common questions

Yes, Hypertrophy 225 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.

Hypertrophy 225 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 6 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Hypertrophy 225 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.
