A 12 week general strenght and hypertrophy programme with T1 to T3 structure. T1: exercises like Bench, Squat, OHP, DL or variations T2: Any compound you like T3: Mostly isolation exercises. T1 progression: Weeks 1 to 4: find a easyish 6RM on week 1 and add reps per week until you reach around 10 on week 4. Weeks 5 to 8: restart the progression and try for slightly higher 6RM and again increase to 10RM on week 8. Weeks 9 to 12: Find a real 6RM and go down to real 3RM in week 12. After rep maxes on weeks 1 to 8 do between 3 to 6 "half sets" so half of the reps of set 1 with the same weight. On weeks 9 to 12 do 3 to 6 singles with the same weight T2 progression: Find a easyish 8RM on week 1, progress that to 12RM on week 4. Do the same on Week 5 through 8. Weeks 9 - 12: Find a real 8RM and work to a 4Rm on week 12.¨ Here also do half sets similarly than T1 T3: Weeks 1 to 9: Aim for 2 to 5 T3's with 2-4 sets and dual progression. Choose exercises you like while trying to do a back exercise atleast 3 times per week. Week 10 to 12: Max 2 sets of Max 3 T3 exercises. Go light and do 1 or none on week 12.

Common questions

Yes, GZCL Burrito But Big is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 12 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.

GZCL Burrito But Big 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 12 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

GZCL Burrito But Big 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.
