Pectoral Pursuit is a structured, evidence-based training program designed to help men build strength, maximize size, and improve performance. This program is for men wanting to build muscle and look bigger, leaner, and stronger.

Training is organized into progressive blocks that begin with an acclamation phase to refine technique and establish solid movement patterns before intensity increases. Each week applies progressive overload through strategic volume, tempo control, and intelligent exercise selection to drive consistent strength and hypertrophy gains.
