Your Free Half Body Upper Workout

Half Body 2.0 A/B Rotation

This Half Body Program is a nice place for intermediate to advanced lifters. For the intermediate it’s an exceptional place to get a nice balance of muscular volume and frequency – a good way to quickly build a muscle building skill and condition it. For the advanced lifter it may be a nice step back from the typical bro split. Volume is likely a tad lower per muscle group and frequency is likely higher. This is a really good way to give your body as a whole a little bit of break from the rigors of muscular trauma (muscle damage), get more time to refine your training skill, and improve total body condition – an excellent tool to have when going back into a push / pull / lower or bro split. This split is comprised of 3, 4 week phases totally in 12 progressive weeks. Phase 1 begins at the foundation, establishing an appropriate but low volume so form can be focused on. Over the progression of the next 2 phases training progresses to include more supersets, training intensifier, volume per muscle group, and failure sets. All of these will push your efforts in the gym. Each week will include 4 workouts. Included is an Upper A, Lower A, Upper B, and Lower B. For most of you, all of these workouts will be completed in a 7 day period. For those of you coming from the Total Body Program, this is a seamless progression from you have already been doing.

Your Free Pull Workout

The DILF Maker

This program is an intermediate program (although like most programs, it can be perfectly acceptable for advanced trainees as well). It’s an adaptation from a program I had originally designed for men, looking to get the most out of training 3-4 days a week, with minimal equipment (garage gym equipment) and sessions that can be completed in 90 minutes or less. It can be done by anyone of course, it has a balanced split with slightly more focus on the upper body.

The first block is a half body split, with exercise taken short of failure. This will give your body time to acclimate to the program. Blocks 2 and 3 are mortified push, pull, lower splits that become progressively more challenging.

Like all the programs, you can adjust (add/remove) off days as needed based on individual schedule and recovery. You can extend out any of the weeks (with the “add week” button) and run the program for longer than 12 weeks, start back from the beginning and run through start to finish again, or use the recovery phase in between.

Good luck! And enjoy.
