Month 1 Training Plan

Day 1–20

Start with the empty bar.

A competition barbell weighs 20 kg before you put anything on it. In week 1 that bar, bare, is your bench press.

Good practice

The ten minutes before and the eight minutes after are what let you keep training in month three.

Warm-up, every session

    Keep the running to five minutes and keep it easy. A real run before lifting burns the calories you are trying to keep and leaves your legs tired before squats. Save longer walks for Wednesday and Sunday.

    Rest between sets

    Tap the red timer button, bottom right of your screen.

    Closing the session

    What to bring

      When to take a break

        Your weights

        If a weight lets you finish every set with clean form and two or three reps still in you, it’s right.

        If your form breaks down on the last two reps, the weight is too heavy — drop it and stay there. Nobody is watching what’s on your bar.

        The five sessions

        Weights follow the week you picked. Every session opens with the warm-up and closes with the cool-down.

        Sunday posture block — seven minutes

        This is what actually changes how you stand.

        Day 1 to Day 20

        Every session in full, with the exact weight, sets, reps and rest for that day. Tap a day to open it. Tick each one as you finish — progress is saved on this device.

        Food

        Maintenance is roughly 2,300 kcal. These targets put you in the surplus for 2 kg this month. Same on training days and rest days.

        A day that hits it

        Daily total 3,090 kcal 154 g protein

        If you can’t finish the food, swap the 10:30 snack for a shake — 500 ml milk, 60 g oats, a banana and two tablespoons of peanut butter is roughly 800 kcal and takes two minutes to drink. A tablespoon of oil in lunch and dinner adds 240 kcal you won’t taste.

        Weigh-in checkpoints

        Weigh Monday, Wednesday and Sunday mornings, after the toilet and before eating. Average the three and compare week to week — never single days.
