6 Week Intermediate Bodyweight Mass Gain Program

Jun 14 2010

NOTE: Before starting this fitness program, consult your doctor. Bodyweight training is the safest form of training out there, but you can get injured if you don’t be careful. Follow this program at your own risk. You have been warned.

This program starts right where the Beginner bodyweight program ends. If this program is too easy for you, then I suggest grabbing a copy of Bodyweight Bodybuilding 2.0. You will only be training 3 days per week in the program:
