Muscle Gain Workout Program: The Ultimate Guide (and Why MyTrainer App Is Changing Everything)

Muscle gain workout program by MyTrainerApp

Understanding the Foundations of Muscle Gain

Before starting any program, it’s essential to understand what muscle growth really means.
To build muscle mass, your body needs three key components:
=> Stimulus through consistent strength training,
=> Nutrition with a calorie surplus,
=> Recovery to allow your muscles to repair and grow.

That’s it — simple on paper, but much harder to execute without structure and discipline.
That’s where MyTrainer App becomes your best ally.

How to Build the Perfect Muscle Gain Program

A muscle gain workout program should be designed around progressive overload — gradually increasing your training intensity to stimulate growth.

Here’s what a well-structured plan should include 👇

1. Compound Exercises First

Focus on multi-joint, compound movements to recruit the largest muscle groups:

  • Squat
  • Bench Press
  • Deadlift
  • Pull-ups
  • Overhead Press
  • Rows

These exercises build strength and muscle mass faster than isolation work alone.

2. The Right Training Split

For most people, the ideal frequency is 4–5 sessions per week.
A common and effective structure is the Push / Pull / Legs split:

  • Push (Chest, Shoulders, Triceps)
  • Pull (Back, Biceps)
  • Legs (Quads, Hamstrings, Glutes)

Aim for 3–5 sets of 8–12 reps per exercise, with 60–90 seconds of rest between sets.

3. Eat to Grow

Muscle gain requires a caloric surplus — you need to eat slightly more than you burn.

  • Protein: 1.6–2 g per kg of body weight
  • Carbs: Prioritize complex carbs (rice, oats, whole-grain pasta)
  • Healthy fats: Olive oil, avocados, nuts, fatty fish

And remember: you can’t out-train a poor diet.
