Bodyweight M.A.S.S.

Phase 1

Progression: Phase 1
The way our body lays down new muscle tissue is quite simple: we introduce a
stimulus our body adapts to the given stimulus by creating new, stronger
muscle tissue.
As long as we can continue to increase the total workload (as mentioned in the
Bodyweight M.A.S.S. guide), we can expect to build new muscle mass.
In this phase, we will take full advantage of your hyper-sensitivity to resistance
training and ability to progress in a linear fashion.
This simply means that we will aim to outperform our last performance of the
same kind, each week.
But dont worry, all of the progression is already built into the program. All youll
have to do is put it into action.
Plus Sets
Youre going to notice that, on some exercises, there is a (+) symbol to the right of
the prescribed sets.
This means that, once youve completed all of your working sets, youll perform a
final, Plus Set.
For example: Push-Ups
Sets: 2+
Reps: 10
Set 1 10 Reps
Set 2 10 Reps
Set 3 AMRAP
The Plus Set should be performed for as many reps as possible (AMRAP). You
should aim to leave absolutely no more reps in the tank and take your body to
complete muscular failure.
Each week you will aim to perform more reps on your Plus Set than the previous
week.

Phase 1

Warming Up
The warm up has two main purposes to enhance performance and to prevent
injury.
As you sit at your computer, tablet, or phone youre experiencing relatively low
blood flow to your skeletal muscle.
Following a short, total body warm up, you can expect a 70-75% increase in blood
flow to skeletal muscle.
Along with the increased blood flow comes a higher muscle temperature. This
causes the hemoglobin in your blood to release oxygen more readily. More blood
flowing to the muscles, along with more oxygen available to those muscle, means
better overall performance.
The Mental Game
Another purpose of a warm-up process includes getting your head ready for
the upcoming activity. Preparing yourself mentally for the upcoming workout,
is thought to improve technique, skill and coordination.
How to Warm Up
In this phase, we will be warming up using low impact, low intensity bodyweight
circuits.
The idea is simpleget the blood flowing.
