HYPERTROPHY.
Organize hypertrophy training into repeatable blocks, then use effort and muscle-length evidence to refine the decisions inside the block.

FOLLOW THE EVIDENCE.
NOT THE ALGORITHM.
A large library is only useful when the hierarchy is clear. Each cluster below has one pillar guide, supporting evidence, a practical tool and a next destination. Start with the pillar when the topic is new; use the supporting pages when the decision becomes more specific.
BODY COMPOSITION.
Build the deficit around energy balance, muscle retention, adherence and a trend you can actually interpret.
START WITH THE PILLARCalorie Deficit + Fat Loss ↗PERFORMANCE.
Specific practice, skill, neural adaptation and recoverable loading matter more than random intensity.
START WITH THE PILLARStrength-Specific Programming ↗NUTRITION SIGNAL.
Set the daily target first, then understand quality, essential amino acids and muscle protein synthesis.
START WITH THE PILLARHow Much Protein Do You Need? ↗DOSE.
Weekly sets are a dose, not a badge of effort. Learn the relationship between volume, frequency and recoverability.
START WITH THE PILLARWeekly Training Volume: Dose Response ↗FEEDBACK LOOP.
Progressive overload is a system of evidence and decisions—not a command to add weight every Monday.
START WITH THE PILLARProgressive Overload ↗READINESS.
Recovery is not a feeling contest. Use sleep, stress and repeated performance signals to decide whether training needs to change.
START WITH THE PILLARRecovery Monitoring + Readiness ↗EVIDENCE FIRST.
Supplements belong after the training and nutrition problem is defined. Start with evidence quality and realistic effect size.
