Train like the Bane himself! The program is made for those who want to face a challenge, gain size and strength. Focusing on upper body, 3 days upper and 1 lower. I will try to make it as simple as possible, so, some points to have in mind: • Warm up before every exercise. • Try to eat in calorie surplus (bulk)❗ I can't stress this enough, that's very important factor in order to gain strength and size, please make sure you control your diet. • With every set try to increase weight. • Do some stretching after session. • Feel free to make some minor changes. • Make sure you get the best recovery (sleep 7-9 hours) Progression: Try to increase every week weight or reps on compound exercises. (Overload progression) Deload: After 4-6 weeks (50% of weight on every exercise or just skip the gym on the deload week)

Common questions

Yes, BANE: Strength and Size 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 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.

BANE: Strength and Size 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 4 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

BANE: Strength and Size 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.
