Block 5 - Gym
Get started today!
Block 5 (Weeks 17-20) - Muscle Hypertrophy
This fifth 4-week training block progresses on the last block in the Beyond Before and After training sequence.
Each workout session follows much of the same structure as the last 4-week training block, beginning with an activation lift > main compound lift > accessory work, but you will see some notable changes and additions:
1. The reps of each set increase from 6-8 reps per set to 7 reps per set.
2. Additional form-focused lifts are introduced - this block introduces the front squat, decline work in the bench press, and we see the return of the paused deadlift, like we saw in training block 2
This 4-week training block is a five-day training split (quad-focused, chest & triceps, glutes & shoulders, back & biceps, hip hinge & glutes) with 5-6 exercises a day and can be completed in 45-60 minutes if you stick to the prescribed rest times (put your phone away and get to work!).
Each workout centres around a main compound lift (squats, bench press, hip thrust, overhead press, (assisted) chin-ups, deadlift), which you will see repeated in every training block I write. This gives the lifter an organized structure that flows from one block to the next to strategically measure progress in their lifts over extended periods of time. 🔥
Enjoy!

About Caroline Drury
Online personal trainer
Hi! My name is Caroline and I am a Fitness and Transformation coach for women 40+, although most of my clients range from 50-70 years old!
I provide no nonsense strength training programs for women who have tried everything else, and are at the age to have the WISDOM to know they need better.
No more fad programs, no more fad diets, just strength training programs put together in the organized and strategic manner for which I’m known, to get women the results they want.
I’ve also paired this with in depth educational content on Macros and Strength Training Fundamentals. The women who do my training programs are highly intelligent and are looking for knowledge in the area of fitness; they want to know the WHY behind the HOW.
I began my fitness journey when I was the Chief of Staff at the parent company to six film companies in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, so I know what it’s like to be a busy woman.
Therefore, my programming is strategic, straight forward, organized and methodical, and each training block is designed to flow from one to the other so that you can finally abandon the “8 week” or “6 week challenges” that never give you lasting results.
Join me and I’ll make sure you have everything you need to get the fitness and physique results you want, then get back to the business of living; living Beyond Before and After.
