The Greg Nuckols 28 Programs collection is one of the best free powerlifting programs made available on the internet. Starscream (autoregulated hypertrophy program) | Greg Nuckols 28 Programs Program NameĪesthetics, Physique, Hypertrophy, Bodybuilding This self awareness will come naturally after a few weeks and is an important aspect of training. Hypertrophy programs are primarily based on time under tension for the muscles and accessory volume, so many of the movements don’t have weights recommended (aside from the normal squat, bench, and deadlift percentage based programming) so you’ll need to proceed based on feel.

The program has lots of notes in the spreadsheet (also available on the program detail page) that I recommend you read before starting. This program is primarily designed to induce muscular hypertrophy, not set new maxes on your lifts. Since it is so high volume, it is important to start the weights very low and work your way up. This is a high volume program with lots of accessory movements, making it ideal for hypertrophy.

For those looking for a 5 day program, an additional bench press day is added. There are many different versions of nSuns, which the 4 day version being especially popular. Many, many people have used nSuns successfully to get stronger, lose fat, and gain muscle (read nSuns Reviews + Results). NSuns is a popular variation of Jim Wendler’s 5/3/1 which bases each workout around one of the “big four” lifts (squat, bench press, deadlift, and overhead press (aka OHP)) and then prescribes additional accessory volume.
