FAQs

Which language is the plan?
The plan is in English and German. You will receive both versions.

Do I need additional equipment?
You’ll need a Ballista and a cable tower. If you train in a home gym, you can replace the assistance work with a resistance band.

How many training sessions are in the plan?
Recommended training days are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

Can sessions be swapped?
No—follow the given order, as the workload is carefully coordinated.

Can I use this plan for three training days a week?
Yes. Remove Session 1 or 3 and add an extra bench press set to the remaining session.

How do I integrate lower body training?
This plan focuses on the upper body. Add lower body training carefully to avoid excessive fatigue.

Can I repeat this plan?
Yes—add a build-up phase afterward (e.g., hypertrophy) to improve recovery and help prevent overreaching.

What if I get sick during the plan?
After a short illness, repeat the last week before continuing. For longer interruptions, restart the plan.
