Hey there people,i was chatting to a guy at the gym and he was asking me if i knew any good programs for hypertrophy?i thought of chads programs,but my queston is what is the best one for hypertrophy but he also wants strength aswell?he has done scrawny to brawny so thats out the window!
Definitely point him to the ABBH or Anti-bodybuilding hypertrohy workout. There's even a link go the t-nation article in my post about full body workouts.
Personally, I'd read a lot of CW's routines, but started with this one for one simple reason: It actually spells out which lifts to use and when.
The others are more "user created" based on his set/rep schemes. He gives you the set/reps shemes and you pick upper/push, hip dominant, etc. Still good, but I wanted to start with one that I new was good.
I'm interested in trying another routine, but I liked this so much that I'm repeating it now. We'll see what happens at the end of this four weeks...

If he's relatively well-versed with training, have him perform my Waterbury Method program. It's outstanding for both size and strength.
Originally posted by BRITISHBULLDOG: hey people maybe max-ot training could be an option for him???theres so many but which one would be best?
I think Max-OT is okay, but in looking at Chad's programs, I really would choose his out of the two. Although I haven't personally tried Chad's programs, yet..hehe..I like what I see in reading them. And I know a lot of guys here have had success with them.
Looking at chads programs makes me want to do them however i am doing westside at the moment!chads workouts are exactly what i like!Both the waterbury method and anti-bodybuilding seem like excellent programs!

How about Craig's TT for Mass. I am just started that yesterday. He would have to pay for it, and since Chad's is free I would assume he wouldn't buy it. But if you get it you can get Craig to tailor it to his needs. CB is excellent for answering questions on any of his routines and gets back, usually within a day.
