Beginners:
- Can handle longer training cycles.
- Any amount of training will help to improve physique making early weeks in a super long cycle still productive
- Up to 8 weeks in length
Intermediates:
- Much stronger than beginners, still adapting relatively quickly, but able to produce more damage and require more recovery.
- Somewhere between 4 and 7 weeks of accumulation
- Length can vary quite a bit based on how quickly overload is being presented.
Advanced:
- Much stronger, and can thus induce far more fatigue and stress on the body.
- Adapt much more slowly than their beginner and intermediate counterparts
- Somewhere between 3-6 weeks of accumulation
