News! After 20 years of the Bilbo Method, WE FINALLY HAVE A SCIENTIFIC PAPER STUDY! 🚀
A recent scientific study has just proven that the Bilbo Method is effective and viable in training plans to gain strength and muscle hypertrophy. Get ready to celebrate and to learn all the details of this game-changing scientific validation.
This is a before and after for the Bilbo Method and for the whole community!
What does it mean that the Bilbo Method is a “Paper Scientific Study”? 🔬
Over 20 Years of the Bilbo Method: A Dream Come True
For those of you who have been with me for a long time, you know that the Bilbo Method was not born in a laboratory, it was born in the mud of the gym, by trying and testing!
It has been 20 years sharing with you, watching your progressions, adjusting, improving.Seeing the Bilbo Method recognized in a scientific paper is the culmination of a 20-year dream, and this is THANKS TO YOU!

BOOK: The Bilbo Method
Scientific Journal: High Level Validation!
And don’t think that we have been published in just any magazine, NO! We are talking about a high impact scientific journal! MDPS – Applied Science. .

The Work Behind the Scientific Study
This means that the scientific community has validated our method. “SCIENCE 100% BILBO METHOD“:
I want to make it clear: this is not magic, NO WAY! This has been a HUGE work of a great team of doctors and scientific researchers of the ICEM Institute:
- Francisco J. González-Alcázar (University of Jaén)
- Pablo Jiménez-Martínez (ICEN Institute, University of Valencia)
- Carlos Alix-Fages (ICEN Institute, University of Valencia, Autonomous University of Madrid)
- Alberto Ruiz-Ariza (University of Jaén)
- Rafael A. Casuso (University Loyola Andalucía)
- Amador García-Ramos (University of Granada, Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción)
- Agustín Jerez-Martínez (ICEN Institute, Catholic University of Murcia)
They have done a really good scientific study to analyze in depth the Bilbo Method, its effectiveness for strength and hypertrophy, comparing it with other methods… An incredible job!
From here, THANK YOU TEAM! You have put the science, I put the seed 20 years ago.
Science Speaks: The Bilbo Method Works 💪
Jesús Varela Goicochea’s “Bilbo Method”: Direct Scientific Recognition
And here comes the best of the best: in the scientific paper, BOLD AND UNDERLINED, they put “Methodology of Jesús Varela Goicochea”, BILBO METHOD!

Viable and Effective: Proven Strength and Hypertrophy
The conclusion of the scientific study is clear: the Bilbo Method is a “VIABLE AND EFFECTIVE” training method for gaining strength and muscle hypertrophy.
What does this mean? you can use the Bilbo Method to get STRONG and GAIN MUSCLE, and you will get RESULTS, scientifically proven results.

Benefits for the BilboTeam Community and Students 🎓
Scientific Support for TFGs and Undergraduate Studies
How many of you have written to me saying that you wanted to do your Final Degree Project (TFG) on the Bilbo Method. Now you have SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUND for your work, for your research.
Let’s give it a go with the Bilbo Method at university! Take it to the academy!
If you want to know everything about the Bilbo Method: Advanced Training Bilbo Method
Confirms What We Already Knew: Real Results with the Bilbo Method!
The scientific study also confirms what all of us who train with the Bilbo Method already know: IT WORKS! That our low-load, high-volume strength training method, with explosive and well-organized reps, gives real results.
And not only that: IT HAS PERFORMED BETTER THAN OTHER METHODS!
Less Risk of Injury: An Additional Advantage of the Bilbo Method
And one last point from the scientific study: the Bilbo Method, by using lower loads, has LESS RISK OF INJURY than other strength training methods with very heavy loads.
This is very important, especially for those of you who have been working hard for a long time and want to continue progressing in a safe way.

Conclusions of the Scientific Study on the Bilbo Method! 👇
For those who want more detail I leave the conclusions of the study referenced to the original texts of the Paper.
Comparable functional and structural adaptations:
LL-HV training produces similar improvements in maximal strength, movement speed and muscle size compared to traditional HL-LV training in weightlifters. This suggests that LL-HV is an effective alternative for improving performance and muscle structure.
Document data:
- “LL-HV resistance training represents a practical and effective alternative to traditional HL-LV protocols, yielding comparable functional and structural adaptations in powerlifters.”
- “These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing strength training programs, offering greater flexibility and efficacy in designing tailored approaches for athletes.”
Improved speed at submaximal loads:
LL-HV training improves movement speed at submaximal loads (80% of 1RM) to a greater extent than HL-LV training. This could translate into a greater ability to perform fast and explosive movements in sport.
- Data from the paper: “Notable advantages, including enhanced mean velocity at submaximal loads… highlight its potential to diversify training strategies…”
Increase in arm circumference:
LL-HV training is associated with a greater increase in arm circumference compared to HL-LV training. This suggests that LL-HV may be more effective in promoting muscle hypertrophy in this region.
- Document Data: “…and increased arm circumference…”
Reduced risk of injury:
LL-HV training, by using lower loads, may reduce the risk of injury compared to HL-LV training. This makes it a safer option for athletes of all levels.
- Document data: “…while reducing injury risks.”
Greater flexibility in training:
LL-HV training offers greater flexibility in the design of training programs, as it allows intensity and volume to be varied more widely. This can be useful in customizing training to the individual needs and goals of the athlete.
- Data from the paper: “These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing strength training programs, offering greater flexibility and efficacy in designing tailored approaches for athletes.”

In summary, the study concludes that LL-HV training is a viable and effective alternative to traditional HL-LV training for improving performance and muscle structure in weightlifters.
LL-HV offers potential advantages in improved speed at submaximal loads, increased arm circumference, reduced risk of injury and greater flexibility in training design.
