What people are saying about ‘Scientific Principles of Hypertrophy Training”

“Loaded with great info. A university course on hypertrophy! Loaded with useful information and it does a great job of outlining the approach to hypertrophy. The content of the book is amazing and so thorough.”
Michael S.

“Great deal of gains assured. The book is full of useful information that all lifters can definitely take benefit from even if they don’t specialize in hypertrophy or differ on certain topics. In my personal case, whilst I don’t share completely my opinion regarding volume manipulation within mesocycles, I couldn’t agree more on many other topics discussed in the book (love the SFTR) and I recommend it to anyone looking to go a step further in their knowledge regarding resistance training or just training in general. Also, there’s amazing content on YT that complement the book perfectly. Really good investment.”
Javier M.

“ This book has been an incredibly useful tool to help me think about how to set up my training based upon underlying principles. This has made it much easier to adjust my program based upon my needs/desires/progress instead of trying to mimic the appearance of other people’s programs.”
Josh J.

“This is the new bodybuilding bible. Read it, accept the 9-principles of hypertrophy into your training and let them wash away your past gym mistakes. You will come out the other side a born again hypertrophy principle master.” Maria C“Book is excellent. It builds on much of the tremendous free information Dr. Mike puts out on volume landmarks and provides the methodology to build the plan including how to use your workout data to best determine your own individual plan. I would recommend this as an addition to the library for everyone serious about adding muscle to their frame. Great work Dr. Mike & Team!”
