5/50 Program Description:
This program is built to build healthy functional muscle for all aspects of life! You will train 5 days a week, using Dumbbells and Barbells for 50 minutes each workout, with Saturday being an active rest day of choice and Sunday being your FULL REST DAY. If you are looking to train for life and maximize your functional strength gains - THIS PROGRAM IS FOR YOU!
Each workout in this program follows a purposeful structure designed to develop strength, build muscle, improve muscular endurance, and increase your overall work capacity - all within an hour or less (50 min).
Focused on hypertrophy and time under tension. This format keeps the target muscles working for longer periods, increases training volume, and helps build muscular strength, control, and definition.
After the Hypertrophy each day you will complete a 4 x 4 max-strength lift. For this section, you will perform four sets of four challenging repetitions of a primary compound movement. The goal is to safely lift heavier weight with proper form, helping your body develop greater force production, improve confidence under heavier loads, and build a stronger foundation for your other exercises.
Next, you will finish the focused strength portion with a metabolic stimulus through drop-sets and EMOMS each day. This allows you to safely extend the set after the muscle has begun to fatigue, increasing blood flow to the working muscles and providing an additional hypertrophy and muscular-endurance stimulus. Each EMOM will include an emphasis that complements the muscles trained that day and will be completed for three total rounds.
The metabolic finisher is designed to elevate your heart rate, improve muscular endurance, support cardiovascular fitness, and teach your body to continue producing strength while fatigued. Because it comes at the end of the workout, you can prioritize your heavier strength.
