Program Description

is a structured 3-day-per-week training programme designed to prioritise chest development and core strength while maintaining complete body balance. Built using progressive overload principles, the system focuses approximately 45% of training volume on chest growth and 45% on abdominal conditioning, with supporting exercises strengthening the remaining muscle groups for stability, posture, and injury prevention. Across eight weeks, participants progress through foundation, volume, strength, and intensity phases, ensuring continuous adaptation and measurable improvement. The programme is suitable for gym or modified home training and is designed to improve muscular definition, functional strength, and overall physical performance. Programme Features Targeted chest hypertrophy training High-frequency core development Balanced full-body conditioning Progressive weekly overload Time-efficient 3-day schedule Suitable for beginner–intermediate progression
