Weight Training for Size - Entering Hypertrophy Phase

Weight Training Program

Hypertrophy Mesocycle




This is my new 6 week weight training hypertrophy cycle. This mesocycle will take me to the new year. In January I will follow a 5x5 program then move into a strength and power phase.

Unhappy with the weight loss during my static contraction training phase I have decided to cut the 10 week program short and switch my weight training program over to that of a hypertrophy phase and gain some weight back.

Here are a few guides to follow in the hypertrophy phase.

Weight is to be 67 - 85% of my 1RM
Reps will fall between 6 and 12
rest will be 30 to 90 seconds.
Sets per Muscle group: 12 - 20

All the best in your weight and programs.
Jason
