Individualizing Exercise Selection

as far as choosing exercises within that context, is it often just looking for generic exercises that you think are going to be most effective, like compounds style, or is it going to be relatively individualized? Yeah, it's going to be individualized. You've got to look at how the client built or they built for certain exercises. Some exercise is going to be great for building quads. Some aren't like a back squat and a bench press for most people. They're not great. A bench press isn't a great chest builder for people, but it's a great pressing movement. A squat is a great squat pattern movement, but it's not going to be as good at muscle building as something like a hack squat or a leg press, but it really depends on what I need to get out of the client. Most of the clients that I train here at our gym are gym pops. So we, we, we choose more movement based stuff and more athletic based stuff than we do bodybuilder for the fact that I don't have a lot of bodybuilding machines. So our only thing we can do are front squats, back squats, overhead squats, you know, low bar squats, box squats. So it's split squats. So it's, everything's about squatting and and traditional barbell stuff. But if I'm training someone online and they've got access to a really nice kit at gym, then we're gonna use a lot more machine-based stuff than I would in person at my gym. Very cool. So coming back to talking about staying within that hypertrophy range within a periodization block how long do you usually recommend somebody stay in a block or how long do you typically design it And then within let say we doing a six week block how do you build progress into the weeks
