Looking to get started in the weight room? You're definitely going to want to start by building the foundation.
This program will build a base of work capacity, strength, muscular endurance, hypertrophy (muscle mass), mobility and power.
This program should be a pre requisite to any dedicated hypertrophy, strength and power training.
If you go through the steps to properly prepare your body for more intense training, you will be able to both perform and recover better in subsequent training blocks.
Build a foundation for long term gains in just 4 weeks!
