Other Online Programs
Limited number of basic, over-used exercises
One-size-fits-all approach, with no accommodation for each individual's own experience, strength, goals, etc.
Full of repeats / duplicates
Pictures, GIFs... maybe a few generic videos
No exercise anatomy visuals included, and no information regarding the primary and secondary muscles involved
The same sets, reps & weight patterns used throughout
Only tell you what to do - not why or how it works, limiting your ability to optimize workouts
You're limited to whatever equipment is being used - no alternative options provided
Based largely on anecdotal experience & "fads"
Developed without thought to long-term joint health - often teaching dangerous lifts & form
Only include actual weightlifting instructions, leaving out other essential muscle-building info
Shoulder training lumped into an upper- or full-body program, not giving it enough attention & forcing you to pay for unnecessary content
Treat the shoulder as one single region and ignore the supporting musculature, leading to uneven development & weaknesses
Workout instructions are only online, making it difficult to remember and track at the gym

Testimonials
~ Matt H. ~
"Shoulders had long been an area where I felt at a loss—I knew I needed to train them, but there is such a dearth of good info and programs for shoulders that most of what I did for years was limited to some meager sets of lateral raises or overhead presses here and there. Understandably, I had never had significant results in this area. When I came across Michael's program, and saw the careful thought he put into crafting it, I immediately knew I had to give it a try. It was exactly what I needed! By following his clear, well-explained (and fun!) program, I have been able to make progress with my shoulders that I had never seen before. More than this, it has been the single most effective workout program I have EVER tried for ANY muscle group, and I've tried many! In a matter of weeks I have made noticeable gains in strength and mass that I didn't think I could achieve. I am now trying out some of his other programs. All I can say is, thank you Michael for your amazing work, and reader—sign up now! It is worth every penny."
~ Garron Griffitts - LCSW, NASM-CPT/CNC ~
"As a NASM Certified Personal Trainer I have found the Dr. Gains hypertrophy series programs to be truly amazing. There are a lot of programs out there by fitness gurus but I believe these are above them all! What I think sets Dr. Gains above the rest is one, the variety of exercises provided per muscle group. You will never get bored or lack for variety. Let’s face it, doing the same ole routine can and does get boring. Not with this program. Second, I find the science behind the movements that he teaches and explaining exactly what muscle group each exercise works, and why it works, to be extremely beneficial. I have always wanted someone to explain this and he does just that. You will not be disappointed in trying and using this program!!"
~ Daniel Rutley - Psy.D. ~
"Michael Kamalu's programs are incredibly complete and expertly done both for the novice and the advanced lifter. This is my 6th year lifting and at 65, I've never felt my muscles work as much as with his programs. I couldn't be more impressed and satisfied. I pay close attention to detail and his programs are unlike any other program I've seen or experienced. They will give you the best workout at any price, I couldn't recommend his programs more highly. If you're middle-aged or older, stay out of the "old folks home" by staying strong! You'll live a better quality and more fulfilling life as you age. There is no downside to strength. Don't wait or procrastinate. Crank up the "feel-good" brain chemicals and begin today!"
~ Tara Birch ~
"I had the absolute pleasure of working through this program. I have worked out for over 25 years, yet I learned an incredible amount of knowledge, techniques, new exercises and tips on injury prevention throughout this program. With the new exercises I can really feel they're working different spots than I have ever worked before. Michael's attention to detail and the ease in following each exercise through his thorough explanations and detailed demonstrations allowed me to complete the program with confidence. The Hypertrophy Series is not only fun, but pushed me to build my strength and bring my gains to a new level. I continue to use all of the new exercises I've learned along the way and am excited to see where it will take me yet. I HIGHLY recommend the Hypertrophy Series and appreciate the time and effort Michael Kamalu has put into providing these top notch programs!"

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Jump to Question:
Q: What type of equipment do I need?
A: Required: EITHER a cable machine OR dumbbells, and a flat bench
Optional*:
-Adjustable dual-cable machine
-Adjustable incline / decline bench
-Barbell & weight plates (a preacher bar or swiss bar is preferred over a flat bar)
-Small exercise ball (or any ball roughly the size of a soccer ball or basketball)
-Bosu ball (or similar)
*99% of the exercises / lifts in the program that use equipment are either free-weight based or cable-based. It's ideal to have access to both, HOWEVER, the program was developed so that it can be completed by those who only have access to one or the other by using the Alternative Options section included in each module. For example, if a particular exercise uses a cable machine.. then the Alternative Options section will specify a free weight exercise that achieves the same benefits, and for exercises that use free weights it will give a cable alternative. The Alternative Options section will also specify dumbbell alternatives for exercises that use barbells. The other 1% of exercises that use equipment outside of standard free weights or cables (i.e. exercise balls) will all have alternatives specified as well.
The Alternative Options section not only specifies what exercise to use as a substitute, but will actually provide a video demonstration for the alternative exercise as well right there in the module!
Ultimately, if you have access to either a cable machine or dumbbells (and a bench), you have all you need to complete the entire program!
Q: How is the program material accessed / delivered?
A: The course material is all delivered via the Dr. Gains Online Program Platform, which is accessible by - and compatible with - all devices (desktop, mobile, tablet, etc.). After purchasing a program you will be directed to create your account (if it's the first Dr. Gains program you've purchased), and login to the platform. If you're registered for more than one Dr. Gains program at the same time, they will all be there!
-The platform will track your progress and save your place so that you can pick up right where you left off on any device (even mid-video)!
-The 8 Stages are delivered on a weekly "drip schedule" the day before the next stage is scheduled to begin. For example, on Day 6 of the program Stage 2 will become available. On Day 13 Stage 3 will become available, and so forth.
-More detailed instructions will be given within the introductory section of program.
Q: How soon can I start?
A: Immediately!
The first stage of the program is scheduled to start on a Monday... but you change that to whatever day of the week you want (although for best results you should stay consistent with whatever day you choose). You can also start reviewing the modules and putting them into practice right away. There is a decent amount of introductory material to review (i.e. program organization, supplement instructions & recommendations, weight and rest time instructions, general tips, etc.), which we recommend going through at least one day in advance.
Q: Do I need to be an experienced weightlifter to start this program?
A: No!
Every exercise is presented in a comprehensive video tutorial with detailed instructions and clear explanations - no previous experience is required.
Additionally, almost all of the exercise modules are highly customizable, including multiple different tiers, variations, modifications, and alternatives so that each person can apply them to their specific needs, goals, capabilities, and resources.
Whether you're a competitive bodybuilder with 30 years of weightlifting experience and a Ph.D. in exercise science... or you've never so much as lifted a dumbbell before in your life (or aren't even sure what a dumbbell is!), this program will meet you at your own level and help you grow from there!
Q: Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
A: Yes!
Dr. Gains is so confident in the value this program will bring you that if you purchase a Standard or Lifetime Access Plan and aren't completely satisfied after completing the first 2 Stages, he'll refund 100% of your money! (This doesn't apply to the Week-by-Week or Month-by-Month Access Plans, since both have free trials built-in)
(To date, nobody has ever requested a refund!)
