BEGINNER
For the beginner or the “mildly ambitious” person, male or female, youth (13 to 19), adult (20 to 70) or senior (80+), select a weight (resistance level) for each exercise that does not exceed 60—70% maximum effort.
INTERMEDIATE
The percentage of effort for the intermediate level person on each set should approach 80%
.
ADVANCED
The percentage of effort for the advanced level person on each set should approach 95%—100%.

WITH DOUG BRIGNOLE
Using the best resistance training exercises is not enough to achieve maximum muscle development, there are other factors involved, one of them is nutrition.
We know that when trying to build muscle and not add fat, getting the right balance of nutrients and calories is essential.
That's why we included nutritional guidance so you know when, what, how much and how often you should eat.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What equipment is needed to do the BUILD & BURN at home?
A flat or adjustable bench, (if you don’t have a bench, some exercises can be done on the floor), a set or rack of dumbbells and elastic bands.
Is all I need in a commercial gym is an adjustable cable machine?
No, an adjustable cable machine is a great option to do many of the BRIG20 exercises but you still need dumbbells, a flat or an adjustable bench and few other machines as described in the program.
What is the difference between the BRIG20 and the BUILD & BURN program?
In the BRIG20 program you’ll find a demonstration of all the best exercises and alternatives, you will also find the BRIG20 explained video to learn why they are the best exercises, but you won’t find how to use those exercises in a periodization program, how many sets and reps you should do if your goal is muscle building for example, how often you should work each muscle group etc..
All that is covered in great details in the BUILD & BURN program
Does the BRIG20 program complement the BUILD & BURN program?
Absolutely! To get the most out of the BUILD & BURN program, you should know how to perform the BRIG20 exercises CORRECTLY, you should know how to set up the machines, how wide, how high, and you should know about the alternatives. All that is covered in the BRIG20 program ONLY.
