Embark on a transformative journey with **Jacked and Stacked**, a comprehensive 16-week program designed for serious lifters ready to build muscle and strength. Committing to six days a week, you'll engage in a balanced mix of upper and lower body workouts, featuring powerful exercises like paused bench presses and Romanian deadlifts. Each session incorporates supersets and targeted movements to maximize efficiency and results, ensuring you push past your limits. Equip yourself with a full gym and get ready to sculpt your physique like never before!

Intermediate to advanced level bodybuilding program using antagonist supersets to save time and increase work capacity. Each movement pattern will be trained using a main lift, a secondary lift, and a tertiary lift along with various isolation lifts. For example, the horizontal press uses the bench press as the main lift, Larsen press for the secondary, and a fly for the tertiary. Progression will depend on the priority of the lift. Take rest day after each arm day before the following upper day, this will create an 8 day training cycle.

For main lifts, use dynamic double progression, where weight jumps are done each set on an exercise depending on the performance on that set in the prior training session. An example using the bench press with a target rep range of 4-8 reps:
- week 1 performance 
   - set 1: 100kg x 8
   - set 2: 100kg x 6
   - set 3: 100kg x 6
- week 2 weight based on week 1 performance 
   - set 1: 102.5kg
   - set 2: 100kg
   - set 3: 100kg
In the above example, you would increase the weight on sets 2 and 3 in the session following the one where you achieve the full 8 reps on each respective set.

For secondary lifts, use standard double progression, where you achieve the top end of the target rep range on each set before a weight jump.

For tertiary and isolation lifts, use evolving rep ranges, where instead of having to get the top end of the rep range for each set, you only need to on the first set, then get ‘close enough’ on the subsequent sets before progressing weight. An example using the barbell curl with a target rep range of 6-10 reps:
- week 1 performance 
   - set 1: 40kg x 10
   - set 2: 40kg x 9
   - set 3: 40kg x 8
This performance justifies a weight jump in the following session, as you achieved the top end of the rep range on the first set, with each following set being close. This allows for faster progression than standard double progression but maintains its simplicity, which will be useful for breaking plateaus on these smaller lifts which can be stubborn in terms of weight progression.

Get big.
