Welcome to this 14-week Upper-Lower Strength Program, designed for novice and intermediate lifters who want to build real strength while putting on quality muscle. The program runs on a 4-day training schedule each week, focusing on steady progress in your main lifts — with reps ranging from 6 down to 1 — and supporting accessory work in the 8 to 3 rep range. You’re encouraged to modify your accessory lifts to better support your main movements and individual goals. Listen to your body: take a deload week or some time off when needed to stay healthy and consistent. Optional Conditioning: You can add 1–2 light, slow-paced cardio sessions each week to help improve overall conditioning and recovery without interfering with your strength goals. Nutrition Tip: For best results, aim to be in a slight calorie surplus to support recovery and muscle growth throughout the program.

Common questions

Yes, Upper Lower Strength Program is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 14 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.

Upper Lower Strength Program 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 14 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Upper Lower Strength Program 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.
