This program is designed to build mass but with an emphasis on building strength in the glutes and quads in preparation of deployment, it includes 4 days focused on hypertrophy and strength, taking many sets to complete failure for mental exhaustion. In addition to this, an additional 2 cardio sessions(cycling) and 2 reformer Pilates sessions a week will be done, each for their own purpose (cardio, and injury prevention) in addition to all of this, I will also be doing grease the groove of 100 pushups and 50 pull-ups a day

Common questions

Yes, Military prep 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 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 90 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.

Military prep program is structured around 5 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.
