Welcome to GET STRONG – Gym Version! This 12-week program is built to help you define, build, and shape your body with purpose. You’ll progress through two powerful 6-week training blocks: Block 1 (Weeks 1–6): Focused on pure strength — dialing in your lifts, building a solid foundation, and pushing heavier weight with confidence. Block 2 (Weeks 7–12): Dedicated to muscle growth — sculpting, filling out, and seeing the payoff from your strength base. This isn’t about quick fixes or endless cardio. It’s about showing up, moving weight, and fueling your body so it can adapt, grow, and get strong. 💪 👉 Note: This program is not ideal for weight loss. It’s designed to maximize strength and hypertrophy, so your nutrition should support recovery and muscle growth. Nutritional Recommendations: To get the most from this program, your body needs the right fuel. Here are my baseline guidelines: Calories: Aim for 13–15x your body weight (in lbs). Stick closer to 13x if you’re sedentary outside of this program. Go toward 15x (or higher) if you’re more active or layering in extra conditioning/accessory work. Protein: 0.7–1g per lb of body weight. If you have a higher body fat percentage, use lean body mass instead of total body weight. Carbs: At least 1.5x your protein intake (in grams). Don’t skimp here—carbs are critical for strength and muscle growth, especially if you’re training hard. Fats: Fill the remainder of your calories with quality fats (avocado, nuts, olive oil, fatty fish, etc.). ⚠️ Disclaimer: These recommendations are general guidelines and should not replace dietary/nutritional advice provided by your healthcare provider, especially if you have medical conditions that require dietary management or medications with specific requirements.
