Frequently asked questions

How many days a week is the PHUL program?

PHUL runs 4 days per week: two power days and two hypertrophy days, each split into upper and lower body sessions.

What is the difference between power and hypertrophy days in PHUL?

Power days use heavy compound lifts in the 3-5 rep range to build strength, while hypertrophy days use 8-12 reps to drive muscle growth.

Is PHUL good for intermediate lifters?

Yes. PHUL is an intermediate-level program, based on Brandon Campbell's Power Hypertrophy Upper Lower split, that combines strength and size work across 4 weekly sessions.
