Program in Hypertrophy
Sculpting the body? Build strength and power? And combat the signs of ageing? The solution: muscular hypertrophy. Understanding the mechanisms of muscular hypertrophy and its purpose will allow you to design training programs that meet the personal goals of many clients and athletes.
Gaining muscle mass isn’t only about achieving a certain look: it’s also essential for building athletes’ strength and power. Strengthening and toning the muscles is also good for health and well-being. According to numerous studies, tailored muscle-building exercises help combat progressive muscle wasting and thus tackle the signs of ageing.
