Workout Program – Build III. – 10 Weeks

Frowning at the GYM but still want to build serious strength & muscle? Check out this workout plan and join the throng!

Build Series 3.0 is an 8-week, follow-along training series designed to promote muscle growth, increase strength, and support total-body fitness. A new emphasis has been placed on mobility and core stability, with a particular focus on abdominal development—an element introduced for the first time in this version of the series.

A full-body training structure has been built into the plan, allowing each major muscle group to be targeted multiple times per week. Strength, endurance, and resilience are prioritized through a balanced and progressive approach.

Workout Breakdown

Five new sessions will be introduced weekly, each featuring a unique training split to align with the program calendar. Every week presents a distinct focus to ensure strength and hypertrophy are developed efficiently. While the program may be started at any time, adherence to the calendar’s structure is encouraged for optimal progression.

Cardio sessions have been intentionally limited to allow recovery and avoid overstressing the body. Light aerobic activity may be recommended during certain weeks but is kept moderate to support recovery. High-intensity intervals will not be included.

A deload week follows Week 4, during which no intense workouts will be released. Instead, active recovery—such as walking, yoga, or gentle cycling—is advised. This pause in high-intensity work allows the nervous system and muscles to reset and repair, reducing injury risk and setting the stage for greater performance during the final 4 weeks.

The second half of the program continues to build on the foundation set in the first block. By this phase, improved strength, confidence, and energy will support continued gains and a strong finish.

Sessions typically range from 30 to 60 minutes. Modifications have been built into the workouts to allow flexibility across training environments—whether at home or in a gym setting.


Required Equipment

The following equipment is recommended for full participation:

  • Light, medium, and heavy dumbbells or kettlebells
  • A yoga mat
  • A bench, strong chair, or plyo box
  • Resistance bands
  • Yoga blocks (optional)

In cases where limited equipment is available, adaptations can be made. Movement variations and substitutions are offered to ensure that progress remains accessible to all experience levels.
