Progressive overload for hypertrophy... upper/lower/off. Off days are not written into the program but should be taken every third day after a cycle of upper/lower... U/L/OFF/U/L/OFF/U/L/OFF... etc. - All working sets should be taken to within 1-2 reps of failure but try not to completely fail (failing can add greatly to fatigue accumulation but does not confer a much greater stimulus) - Execute your own warm up sets prior to working sets (these are not programmed in) - If you have reached the maximum reps for the rep range with a given weight, increase the weight next time to a weight that will put you back at the minimum reps in the range. (this is progressive overload) - Take 2-5 minutes of rest between sets to ensure that you are adequately recuperated between working sets - Standardize form and maintain control of the concentric and eccentric. Form doesnt have to be super strict but it does need to be consistent so that you know whether or not you are making progress. Do not cheat, swing, or sway to force reps. Once you have reached task failure the set is over.

Common questions

Yes, Supertrophy Upper/Lower/Off is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 9 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.

Supertrophy Upper/Lower/Off is structured around 6 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 9 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.

Supertrophy Upper/Lower/Off 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.
