It is easy to lose fat by using diet alone, but nearly impossible to build muscle without weight training. Weight training is paramount to building muscle and improving body composition. This program has been built in a way that the overall volume and intensity is there to drive muscle protein synthesis, build muscle, and allow your body to recover which is equally important. The program is a 5-day program split into upper body, lower body , Push A(chest,shoulders,triceps), Pull (back and biceps) and legs.

Common questions

Yes, Sculpt By Science 5 Day Training Split 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.

Sculpt By Science 5 Day Training Split is structured around 5 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.

Sculpt By Science 5 Day Training Split 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.
