For those who want to do a little bodybuilding, calisthenics & Powerlifting. How to find starting weight for workout? For your first week, start with light weights as warm-ups to gauge what weights to use on your working sets. Your goal is RPE 8-9 per set, which means finding a weight that you can do for 1-2 reps shy of failure in the target rep range. It is better to be conservative with the weight and focus on good form before adding weight. Do not ego lift. When to add weight for workout? Every workout, aim to add either weights OR reps for every set as long as you are training at RPE 8-9. Over time, you'll find that you can keep gaining strength at the same RPE. Again, avoid going to failure on sets. How much weight to add per month? Assuming you have been lifting for a relatively good amount of time and you are eating quality amounts as well as adequate sleep. It is normal to see,a Bench increasing of 2.5-5lb & For Squat & deadlift should increase 5-10lb ,1RM gain every month. So after 12 weeks, should be expecting to see a 30 pound increase. Of course this just the normal range and some people can see more or less but again this is the assumption that nutrition and sleep is on point. Keep at it and get gains!!

Common questions

Yes, SBD Garage GYM 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 garage 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 60 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.

SBD Garage GYM is structured around 3 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.

SBD Garage GYM 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.
