This program is for people who want to put on muscle in the gym while also pursuing other sports / hobbies. This split will only demand 3 days in the gym from you, leaving the rest of the week open for cross training (running, cycling, rock climbing, swimming, etc.) Rep ranges are not provided for you at this time. My general suggestion is to perform movements anywhere within the 6-12 rep range, and follow a Dynamic Double Progression (once a set reaches the top end of a rep range, increase the weight of that set next time and start working up the reps again). Supersets of antagonist muscle groups are key here to save as much time as possible while still getting in quality work.

Common questions

Yes, Forge (Full Body Hypertrophy / Hybrid Training) 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 70 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.

Forge (Full Body Hypertrophy / Hybrid Training) 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 12 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Forge (Full Body Hypertrophy / Hybrid Training) 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.
