JD’s Jacked January

| Movement

This program is 12 weeks worth but can be performed in a shorter time frame if necessary. This program is recommended for intermediate to advanced athletes/members. It is a 5 day hypertrophy program with 4 week undulating volume periodisation to maximise results. Better yet, any member that wishes to follow this program can opt in to a FREE Whatsapp accountability group which will host valuable information for those participating in the program.

This program follows monthly undulating periodisation which put simply means the volume will change each month between high & low volume for the main lifts of each workout. This style of programming will allow you to hit new PBs and provide variety to keep things interesting. Weeks 1-4 utilise rep ranges 8-12 mostly @70% 1RM. Weeks 5-8 utilise rep ranges 6-8 @85% 1RM (time to go heavy). Finally weeks 9-12 utilise rep ranges 8-10 @85% 1RM so the goal is to maintain the weights used in the previous month but for more reps. Feel free to adjust volume and intensity throughout in accordance to how your body is feeling. DOMS should only last 24-48hrs and if they are lasting longer then a decrease in intensity is needed OR this is also an indicator that you need to increase your sleep & protein (& possibly total calories).

As this program is rather complex, Jesse has set up an accountability group and an in depth google doc sheet found here. Within the Google Doc sheet you can book in for a free consult or purchase a coaching session via links on the PROGRAM NOTES page.
