FUNCTIONAL BODY COMPOSITION M A L E 2.0 E D I T I O N Introduction Welcome to Functional Body Composition 2.0. I’m excited to have you embark on this journey with us. If you haven’t hit FBC 1.0 yet then I do encourage you to press pause and go open that program up and get to work. This 2.0 program is designed to be a continuation of what was started in the 1.0 program. Building the foundation to handle the time under tension required to be successful here in the 2.0 version is key. Furthermore, there is a tremendous amount of important base building muscle endurance work that will make this a more effective program in the long run for you when you get back to it. But for those of you that recently wrapped 1.0, it is time to dig into what makes this program unique. First off we have a new upper and lower body training split. This is a change from 1.0 in that during the first volume there were mixed upper and lower body days in the beginning of the week. Some feedback from advanced male trainees was that this really crushed them early on in the week. It highlights what some key differences are with male athletes and female athletes. With higher neuromuscular efficiency on average, men can really dig into those lower body sets that do a lot of damage to the tissue and CNS. So in this 2.0 version you will see only three big lower body days that are spread out by several days in between to allow for optimal rest and recovery. Remember that these days are hugely impactful when it comes to getting hormonal responses, and the impacts can last for days due to tissue healing times. There are three days that are focused on upper body in this training split. We are using these to get a much more well rounded upper body physique, and with enough isolation exercises we won’t overload the joints of the upper body with too many compound lifts. You will also note that each training day there are multiple supersets you are completing. The first of the two supersets is designed to have slightly shorter time under tension for the repetitions than the second. These shorter rep ranges and lower time under tension sets are in place to load more aggressively. For the second superset on each day, mind the loading to ensure you can hit the full rep range with QUALITY range of motion at the desired tempo. Essentially, start heavy and then lighten up as you go in the workout. I wish you all the best of luck with this program and if you dedicate for these next 8 weeks and pay attention to your nourishment, you can almost guarantee change to take place!

These sessions need to be thought of as a chance to recover for more intensive lifting to come. These will not elevate your aerobic fitness as much as help you get ready for the next session.

The Fatigued Ab workouts bring together heavy breathing and hard core contractions. With this combination, the inner muscles of the mid section have to work harder getting better recruitment out of the abs altogether.

There is no exact 1/4 spot in the range of motion to try and hit. Just be consistent and aim to stay under control of the weight throughout the reps. No bouncing the bar around.
