The Adaptable Strength & Conditioning System
One framework that flexes to your body, your equipment, and your goal.
Most programs are built for someone else — their schedule, their gym, their body. When life doesn't match the spreadsheet, the plan breaks and you start over. Again.
The Adaptable Strength & Conditioning System teaches you the logic behind programming once, so you can build and adjust your own training for the rest of your life.
What's inside
- The core framework — how to structure a week around any goal: fat loss, muscle, strength, or conditioning
- Progressive overload, made practical — the two-number method for adding difficulty without a spreadsheet
- Volume and intensity dialled in — how many hard sets per muscle per week, and how close to failure to train (RIR/RPE)
- Full program library — ready-to-run splits from 2 to 6 days a week, gym or home
- Calisthenics progressions — build real strength with zero equipment, using harder movements instead of endless reps
- Mobility and warm-ups — short, targeted routines that improve how you move and lift
- Sane nutrition — protein targets, the plate method, and sample days; no crash diets, no food rules you can't keep
- Evidence-based supplements — the short list that's actually worth your money, and what to skip
- Recovery and deloads — sleep, fatigue management, and when to back off so you come back stronger
Read before you buy
The Journal covers this material in the open — judge the thinking first:
- Progressive overload for beginners
- How many sets per muscle per week
- How much protein to build muscle
- The 4-day upper/lower split
- How hard you should train (RIR and RPE)
- How to lose fat without losing muscle
Who it's for
Beginners who want to start correctly instead of guessing, and intermediates tired of program-hopping. Whether you train three days a week or six, in a full gym or a bedroom with no equipment — the system meets you where you are.
Built on evidence, not bro-science
The core recommendations are grounded in published research and position stands from bodies like the ACSM and ISSN, with sources cited throughout. Where the evidence is genuinely unclear, it says so.
Common questions
Do I need a gym? No. Every exercise has a home and bodyweight substitution, and there's a full calisthenics progression library for training with no equipment at all.
Is this a fixed program or a system? Both. You get ready-to-run templates from 2 to 6 days a week, plus the logic to adjust them yourself as your schedule, equipment, or goal changes.
Will it work for fat loss and muscle? It's one framework with different dial settings — volume, intensity, rest, and conditioning shift by goal rather than requiring a different program.
