The Weekend Warrier: Upper/Lower Body Hypertrophy Program

The Club Physio

Coach
Sam Cataldo

The Hypertrophy-Focused Strength and Conditioning Program with Injury Prevention Integration is a specialized training program designed for individuals who aim to further improve their muscle size while actively participating in recreational sports.

The program emphasizes progressive overload and targeted muscle stimulation to promote muscle hypertrophy. It incorporates a combination of compound exercises, isolation movements, and volume-based training techniques to maximize muscle size and strength gains. Key exercises may include squats, deadlifts, bench presses, shoulder presses, bicep curls, tricep extensions, and other effective compound and isolation exercises.

To ensure the program aligns with the individual's recreational sport participation, specific exercises and training strategies are tailored to complement the demands of your chosen activity. Integration of sport-specific movements, such as rotational exercises for golf or agility/plyometric drills for soccer or Rugby League, are included to enhance functional strength and performance.
