That's a 14 week program designed to yield an 11-12 percent increase.

Bigguns15's website, http://www.rebeccaphelps.com, has a 9 week program "Advanced Training Cycle - I" that yielded a 12.9% increase on bench press in a university study that was completed just a few weeks ago.

Those kinds of gains aren't that rare for a newbie, but the advanced lifter probably wouldn't have the same results. Depends...

I guess I should note that the participants in the study mentioned above were female and had previous weight training experience and at least 1 year of powerlifting experience. The gains were remarkable with such a group! Regardless of the type of training you choose, patience and longevity are the key to packing on those pounds. Stay smart, stay safe, and be patient. The big bench will come.

Yeah...and I should mention that I was referring to the 30-40 pounds in 7 weeks.
