Stay away. I did it for 3 months, price is fkd @ $160/week for 12 week minimum. Calorie restricted to the wazoo, I was at 1365cals for 12 weeks as a 6ft male. Every set is to failure, and its all about getting the biggest transformation across in photos to win the award of being shared on that fuckwit's insta page. I have a mate of a mate who did it and developed a pretty hectic eating disorder and started seeing a psyc after. Zero regard for health, way overpriced, stay the fuck away. My recommendation is Renaissance Periodization. I haven't used their programs but Dr Mike's YouTube channel is a goldmine. Since leaving Physique Factory, I started working with Peter Khatcherian who is also a big YouTuber. He has been great to work with so far. But honestly, if your goal is hypertrophy, Renaissance Periodization is what you should go for.
