The Home & Hotel Hypertrophy Handbook
Training when the equipment is a hotel treadmill or a bag of rice
An 80-page ebook about training with little or no equipment, written for travel, hotel gyms and living rooms. It walks through judging your own situation, then gives nine programs from beginner to advanced, printable planning worksheets, an exercise library by muscle group, and 20 pages explaining tempo, time under tension, rest periods, intensity, progressive overload and deloads. Improvised loading is part of the method: a bag of dog food or a jug of laundry detergent stands in for a dumbbell. Greg Doucette sells it through his own site.
