I want a training program

Look at the following factors:

Age, gender, genetics, hormone level, quality of life, nutrition, individual response to training, intensity, duration, time on tension, rest, mechanical stress, metabolic stress (swelling) and muscle fiber injuries.

In fact our body is complex, so before going to the gym to lift weight, always look for a competent professional to explain the whole process and help you integrate all these factors.

Characteristics of a muscular hypertrophy training:

- Loads of intensity: 75% to 85% of 1 RM;

- 6 to 12 repetitions;

- 3 to 6 series;

- Cadence (execution speed): 2: 4;

- 6 to 10 exercises per training session;

- 1 to 3 minutes of rest;

- 48 to 72 hours rest between training sessions;

- Weekly frequency for the same muscle group: 1 to 3 days.
