If you’ve been following along for the past few months you’re well entrenched in the Build Your Best Physique programs weeks 1 to 6 and weeks 7 to 12. If it’s been working for you and you’ve enjoyed the program then by all means don’t change a thing. Keep going. But if you’re ready to shift gears or have hit a plateau then this phase is for you.

After a week of either downshifting your intensity or a few days entirely off from training altogether you’ll be ready to go to the next level. This phase is unique in the way of intensity and pace. You’ll be supersetting exercises in such a way to maximize your time and effort.

So by now you’ve been on the first six weeks of the Build Your Best Physique Program (weeks 1 to 6). You should have a firm grasp of the basics and have built a bit of a foundation of strength. By focusing on the big compound movements for six weeks and taken either a break or downshifted your intensity for a week or so, you’ll be ready to ramp up into this next phase. 

If you’re needing a new beginning, coming back to training after a long layoff, or are 30 or 40 something and want to follow a no B.S. plan then this is for you.

We’ve already listed a few principles to establish a foundation, but now it’s time to get down to business. The following program starts the “Best Physique” training plan with weeks one through six. It will establish a base for building a muscular, lean physique. Pure and simple. What isn’t included are trendy techniques, unrealistic requirements, and cool-sounding titles (unless you want to call Best Physique super cool or not).

The purpose here is to avoid complicating the muscle building process. Try this plan out for the first six weeks and let me know how you do in the comments below.
