Welcome to the BILBO SOLDIER hypertrophy program. STAGE 0 - LEADING / TECHNIQUE PHASE This is your first step to become a jacked BILBO SOLDIER. At this STAGE you will be focusing on learning how to perform the basics correctly & improving your technique on them as much as posible. WORKOUT 1) 10 min squat mobility. 2) Compounds x 2 hard sets each. 3) Isolations x 2 hard sets each. 4) Kelso Shrugs / Shrug Dips: 50 reps total with good control & reasonably challenging weight. 5) Deadhang x 1 set as much time as posible (Hang for your life). 6) Conditioning: Dumbbell Thrusters x 3 sets. RANGE OF MOTION Perform as much range of motion as you can do safely, mantaninig good technique. REST INTERVALS 3 min between compounds. 2 min between isolations. 1 min between conditioning exercises (Dumbbell Thrusters). WARM UPS Perform 1-3 ramp up sets before compounds. Perform 1 warm up set with lighter weight before isolations. Ramp up example: If you are going to do High bar squat hard sets with 50kg 1) Empty bar x 8-10 reps 2) 30kg x 5 reps 3) 40kg x 2-3 reps 4) Rest 2-3 min 5) Do your hard sets with 50kg Try to do you ramp up sets with as best technique as posible. *Peform 2 sets of 5 Scapular Pull Ups with good control before your Pull Ups. PROGRESSION Compounds - Pick a weight that feels a bit challenging to do for 5 reps with very good control & technique. Next workouts of the week do the same reps but try to improve your technique. Each week add 2,5kg / 5lbs. Pull ups - First week do 2 sets with excellent control & technique leaving 2 reps in reserve (RIR 2). Next workouts of the week do the same reps but try to imrpove your technique. Each week try to add a rep. If you can't add a rep while mantining excellent technique it's ok, don't force it. Isolations - Pick a weight that feels a bit challenging to do for 6 reps with very good control & technique. Next workouts of the week do the same reps but try to improve your technique.

Common questions

Yes, BILBO SOLDIER - S0 is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 4 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.

BILBO SOLDIER - S0 is structured around 3 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 4 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

BILBO SOLDIER - S0 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.
