Periodization for Bodybuilding: Planning Your Progress

by TrainTitan » Fri Jan 10, 2025 12:00 am

Are you planning your training in phases? Consider periodization.
Periodization involves systematically varying training variables over time to optimize progress and prevent plateaus:
  • Macrocycles: Long-term plans (e.g., a year)
  • Mesocycles: Medium-term blocks (e.g., 4-6 weeks of hypertrophy)
  • Microcycles: Short-term weekly training cycles
"Structure brings consistent, predictable gains."
How do you plan your training cycles?
