Mass Gain – Hyperion

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Hyperion is a hypertrophy based program designed to build muscle mass while also improving the athlete's speed endurance. Training is scheduled to be 5 days a week but can also be done as 3-4 days per week if being used concurrently with another program. It requires equipment typically found at the standard globo or garage gym to be completed as written. As a hypertrophy program, the focus is on muscular growth, not increasing lift performance or strength PRs.

This is a simple program to follow and progress through, and requires little technical lifting experience. This protocol is also repeatable by changing out the exercises used in order to target different areas you might also want to improve on.

LOADING

All loading is based off of how the athlete feels, or DBM, which stands for "difficult but manageable". This means to choose a challenging load that feels heavy, but still allows for proper technique and doesn't bring the athlete to complete failure during the block. Objective is to be at your chosen “DBM” load by the middle set of the total required. For example, if you are doing 5 Blocks total, attempt to be at DBM by the 3rd Block. Keep good records of the loading because, as the protocol progresses and loading get easier, an attempt should be made to end up slightly heavier than the previous session.
