Welcome to your comprehensive guide to advanced bodyweight training. Over the next 12 weeks, you will embark on a journey that will challenge and enhance your strength, endurance, and control. This program is meticulously structured to ensure clarity and ease of following, with a focus on key activities and progression.
You’ll notice the program maintains a consistent approach throughout the 12 weeks, and there’s a good reason for that. It’s structured to ensure you make steady and complete progress in your bodyweight training.

Program Structure: The program is designed with three training sessions per week to optimize results and recovery. This frequency is based on the principle that fewer, more focused sessions can lead to faster progress compared to spreading efforts across many sessions targeting different body parts.
Session Frequency Options:
Standard: 3 sessions per week, ideal for beginners or those with limited time.
Intermediate: 4-5 sessions per week, repeating one or two sessions focusing on muscle groups you wish to improve.
Advanced: 6 sessions per week, repeating all sessions twice with one rest day at your discretion.
Rest Time: Rest time between sets is crucial for progress. It will decrease over the program to increase workout intensity. Ensure to use a timer to adhere strictly to the rest periods.
Energy Expenditure: Give your maximum effort in each exercise, especially at the beginning of your workout. It’s expected to have reduced energy as the session progresses, but as you advance through the program, your strength and endurance will increase, allowing you to perform each exercise with optimal execution.
Squat Technique: Squats are a pivotal exercise in this program. Focus on full form and explosive power on the ascent. Increase the weight only when you can complete all reps and sets within the intended time.
