Plan Details
The Pyramid Strength Program routine by JefitTeam is a 6 day workout plan. It is an intermediate level plan to achieve bulking fitness goals.
This is a 6-day, intermediate, strength training program that utilizes a pyramid format. Meaning, the number of repetitions increase with each subsequent set. Typically 3-4 sets are performed for each exercise. Use a heavy enough weight that enables you to complete only the desired number of repetitions. Once you can complete more, increase the weight by 5-10 percent respectively for upper/lower body exercises. Each subsequent set should be slightly heavier than the next. Session 1: Legs/Core, 7 total exercises, 47-minute session. Session 2: Back/Arms, 6 exercises, 45-minute session. Session 3: Chest/Shoulders, 6 exercises, 45-minute session. Session 4: Repeat session 1 (different rep. scheme). Session: 5: Repeat session 2 (different rep. scheme). Session 6: Repeat session 3 (different rep. scheme).
