RPE 1-3 || This is a weight that the athlete can move with ease throughout the planned series of repetitions.
RPE 4-5 - This is a weight that offers moderate resistance, but the athlete feels they could double the planned repetition range with the weight they have chosen.
RPE 6-7 || This is a moderate/moderately heavy weight for the athlete. It should represent a challenge for the planned range of repetitions, but should not make them fear failure. The rest required between sets should be minimal.
RPE 8-9 || This is a near maximal effort for the intended range of repetitions. Athletes need adequate rest between sets at this RPE.
RPE 10 || This is a maximum effort for the planned range of repetitions. The athlete should be fully loaded at the end of each set.

Mayhem Bodybuilding Goals
(Not Scored)
Mayhem Bodybuilding is a stand-alone programme focused on hypertrophy. You can layer it on top of other Mayhem Athlete programmes, but it is not designed to be run on top of all the other programmes every day. We will include pieces from certain days in other programmes as "ACCESSORIES".
The objectives are to stay focused and rest just long enough for you to perform the next set with quality and control, unless otherwise stated.
Keep your attention on each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not "for time"
but treat them as if you had a time limit. Keep a stopwatch visible to hold yourself accountable.

Workout of the Day
Max Rep Bench Press + Burn Out Set
(Reps)
Week 6:
Max Rep Bench Press (+ 2.5-15 lbs from last week), based on the chart below
-rest 1:00-
Burn Out Set: Max Reps @50% of the weight performed above
During this 10 week strength cycle, we will be following a max-rep bench press program designed to build upper body strength, muscle hypertrophy, and pressing endurance. You will perform max unbroken reps at a progressively increasing load each week, promoting both physical and mental fortitude under the barbell. Once you complete the max lift, rest 1:00, drop the weight by 50%, and then complete a “burn out set” of max unbroken reps.
Start at the weight listed below for week 1 and progress weekly based on the listed increase for your 1RM.
In Pounds:
1RM.............Increase
<= 120#.......start at 60% and increase by 5 pounds every other week (or 2.5 every week)
125-185#.....start at 50% and increase by 5 pounds every week
190-255#.....start at 60% and increase by 5 pounds every week
260-360#.....start at 50% and increase by 10 pounds every week
>= 365#........start at 50% and increase by 15 pounds every week

Mayhem Bodybuilding is a stand-alone programme focused on hypertrophy. You can layer it on top of other Mayhem Athlete programmes, but it is not designed to be run on top of all the other programmes every day. We will include pieces from certain days in other programmes as "ACCESSORIES".
The objectives are to stay focused and rest just long enough for you to perform the next set with quality and control, unless otherwise stated.
Keep your attention on each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not "for time"

THURSDAY OVERVIEW
(Not Scored)
Mayhem Bodybuilding Thursdays normally consist of a monostructural (cardio) section and a metabolic conditioning (metcon) section.
Both sections will include some elements of functional fitness in their core programming to allow CrossFit athletes who exclusively follow the Bodybuilding stream to dabble in this style of training once a week.
Listen to your body and do the cardio section every week as part of your regular Bodybuilding programming. If you feel good after the cardio section and want an extra workout or want to keep the rust off your CrossFit skills, include the metcons section in your routine too.

Workout of the Day
Back Squat 1x20
(Load)
Week 6: 20 Rep Back Squat (+2.5-15 lbs from last week), based on the chart below
During this 10 week strength cycle, we will be following a 20-Rep Back Squat progression designed to develop raw strength, muscular endurance, and mental toughness. This classic squat cycle challenges athletes to perform 20 unbroken reps at a progressively heavier load each week, to build both physical capacity and mental grit under the barbell. Work hard and reap the benefits.
Start at the weight listed below for week 1 and progress weekly based on the listed increase for your 1RM.
In Pounds:
1RM.............Increase
<= 120#.......start at 60% and increase by 5 pounds every other week (or 2.5 every week)
125-185#.....start at 50% and increase by 5 pounds every week
190-255#.....start at 60% and increase by 5 pounds every week
260-360#.....start at 50% and increase by 10 pounds every week
>= 365#........start at 50% and increase by 15 pounds every week

Mayhem Bodybuilding is a stand-alone programme focused on hypertrophy. You can layer it on top of other Mayhem Athlete programmes, but it is not designed to be run on top of all the other programmes every day. We will include pieces from certain days in other programmes as "ACCESSORIES".
The objectives are to stay focused and rest just long enough for you to perform the next set with quality and control, unless otherwise stated.
Keep your attention on each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not "for time"
but treat them as if you had a time limit. Keep a stopwatch visible to hold yourself accountable.

Current Bodybuilding Cycle: Week 16 of 17
(Not Scored)
Bodybuilding Cycle 1: Week of January 6 - April 28 (17 Weeks)
Goal: The goals are to stay focused and rest just long enough so that you can perform the next set with quality and control unless stated otherwise.
Keep your attention on each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not done “for time” but treat them like you are limited on time. Keep a visible clock running to keep you accountable.
Progression: The main lifts will follow a slightly varied rep scheme with small cycles strategically placed to allow for maximum return on investment. The main lifts will follow more closely with a percentage than an RPE. Starting out the cycle we will utilize a classic 5x5 to set the weight athletes will use the rest of the cycle. The goal is to increase capacity with moving a heavy percentage for each individual athlete. Athletes should trust the process and stay as close to the percentages as they can. If you need a break, take one and go lighter or just move. There will be a test week and deload weeks throughout this cycle that will take us into the end of April.
Length: This cycle will be a 17 week long cycle starting with a familiarization week and move into varied weeks and small cycles within. This cycle is longer and will test athletes throughout.
