Athlean-X Max Size Muscle Building Workout [Review]

November 2, 2022 By Jess Billitz

Athlean X Max size image

8-12 reps per set, 1+ gram of protein per pound of body weight, targeting each muscle group twice a week, sleeping 7-9 hours a night.

All of these strategies are scientifically proven to trigger greater muscle growth to some extent.

But they mean next to nothing if you’re what they call a “hardgainer.”

You just can’t seem to bulk up or put on weight, no matter how extreme the changes you make in the gym or the kitchen are.

Don’t give up just yet!

The Athlean-X Max Size Muscle Building Workout may be what you need to shock your muscles into serious growth, even if you usually struggle to add mass.

Let’s review whether this mass program truly lives up to expectations.

Athlean x jacked review image

There were two types of people during the early COVID-19 apocalypse: those who hoarded toilet paper like they planned to live strictly on Taco Bell Chalupas for the next six months … and those who stockpiled home gym equipment.

If you’re in that first group, do your intestines a solid and visit a doctor. If you’re in that second group and among the 59% of us who ghosted our gyms post-COVID, Athlean-X’s Jacked program is calling your name.

Read on to learn more about Jeff Cavaliere’s 12-week program designed for the home-gymmers with a bench, a set of dumbbells, and eyes on getting jacked.

Here’s something nobody can dispute:

Compound lifts are ideal for full body strength and muscle gains.

Back, chest, hamstring, and quad exercises, they’re all an essential piece of the framework for a solid full-body workout routine.

But seriously.

Who’s going to turn down a routine that puts a little extra emphasis on the arms? Especially when your bicep and tricep gains are lagging behind your chest, shoulders, and back.

Enter the Athlean-X Ultimate Arms Workout Program.

This workout program may be precisely what you need to mold those doughy upper arms into sculpted, rock-hard arms.

Let’s review whether this program is the real deal.

Athlean x total beast review image

Here’s a fact you already know:

Targeting each muscle group several times per week is the most efficient way to build serious mass and strength—and this is an idea that’s been scientifically proven time and time again.

But here’s the thing:

As much as you want to be bigger and stronger than you already are, a strict mass-building routine leaves other areas of fitness in the rearview.

Agility, power, speed. You know, the things you often overlook.

If you want to reach true “beast” status, the Athlean-X Total Beast Workout Program may just be the program that’ll turn your fitness goals into your new reality.

Let’s find out what this program truly has to offer.

Athlean-X TNT Workout Program [Complete Review]

April 4, 2022 By Jess Billitz

Athlean-X TNT

7.5/10

Quick Review:

Athlean-X TNT admits that their mass-building routines aren’t the end-all-be-all, so this program will cut through plateaus by giving you targeted training for a single muscle group. However, the lack of refund policy, solo muscle focus, overtraining risk, and no leg TNTs might make you understandably skeptical. A full body routine would be a better pick.

Jump to the Full Summary

Experience LevelBeginner, Intermediate
Workout Days1
Home/GymBoth

Pros:

  • Revives lagging muscles
  • Five muscle group options
  • Home or gym workout option

Cons:

  • No refund policy
  • 1 TNT = 1 muscle group
  • Not a full multi-day routine
  • No leg TNTs

The normally-ironclad Athlean-X vault isn’t indestructible.

Unfortunate genetics and unresponsive muscles might leave you 90 days into the classic AX-1 program and wondering why your arms are still doughy, or your back is suddenly plateauing.

Or maybe you DIY your workouts and have a straggler — one muscle group that’s gone off the beaten path, stopped growing, and doesn’t seem to be coming back any time soon!

What you might need … is a little TNT.

Athlean-X’s TNT workout program gives a little TLC to an upper-body muscle that’s caught in a rut. But is this solo-muscle workout the secret to blasting plateaus and getting back on track?

Let’s find out.

April 4, 2022 By Jess Billitz

Athlean x breakout review

Training plateaus are like a**holes; everyone has one. Hell, some of us have two (or more)! Wait, no, that’s not right. Scratch that.

Plateaus are a normal part of training at any experience level.

If you’re an Athlean-X die-hard, you naturally fall into the Athlean-X Breakout muscle-growth plateau-busting 12-week routine (because Jeff Cavaliere is your fitness god).

Athlean x vs kinobody image

Athlean-X die-hards bow down to “fitness god” Jeff Cavaliere for his science-backed approach to lean gains, plateau breakthroughs, and on-field athletic prowess.

Kinobody addicts swear by “the real Bruce Wayne” Greg O’Gallagher’s aesthetic programs for a movie star, warrior, or Greek god physique.

Each fitness brand has its fair share of groupies and haters.

But which brand should you follow — Athlean-X or Kinobody?

April 4, 2022 By Jess Billitz

Athlean x vs insanity image

Athlean-X rose to stardom for its science-backed approach to muscle growth, fat loss, and overall athleticism for hard-gainers and born-again athletes.

Insanity was an overnight sensation for its batshit-crazy “Maximum Interval” cardio training and almost unbelievable weight-loss success stories (to the tune of 20–40 pounds in 60 days).

Jeff Cavaliere’s Athlean-X and Shaun T’s Insanity took the fitness world by storm in 2009. But which of these still-kickin’ old-school classics is better — Athlean-X or Insanity?
