2 days per week, low volume with increased intensity over 3 weeks before 4th deload week, after that, review how hard the 3rd "peak" week felt and add weight and start over. If you struggle to finish sets in 3rd week, then keep the weights as they are and just repeat the cycle. This is made for people who train other sports like running and need strength training to compliment that, low volume keeps your body able to keep up with the recovery while increasing the intensity week by week gives your muscles enough stimulus to get stronger.

Common questions

Yes, Hybrid Strength 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 garage 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 50 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 Strength is structured around 2 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.

Hybrid Strength 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.
