7 Weeks to a Shredded ME!...

ahhhhhh..... now we're talkin!!! Dude, i am actually gonna video tape these this week for a website, you get the first edits... :D

(do NOT laugh at the bald guy, its dangerous... ;) )


In the meantime, this is food for thought, use what you like.

Every other day core fest:

do heavy work one day, thenn on the next core day do dynamic work, will get to that later....

Day one: Heavy Core

--Hanging inverted pikes (buns knew that was comin', :lmao:) if you cant get 'toes to the bar on these yet, you need a friend, this is ALL about the negative! if you cant get to the bar, have your buddy lift your ankles to the roof for you and YOU let them down. I rarely do forced anything, but these are the JOINT! Go first set as high as you can manage on your own for eight. second set as high as you can with the last two reps assisted to the bar. last set, all assisted to the bar and let that STRAIGHT leg drop come down sloooooowwww....
--HEAVY cable crunches 'Below Sea Level', three sets only, no more than eight reps each, if you can do eight on the third set, you didnt see the first word of this sentence. ;) The 'Below Sea Level' part refers to NOT doing these kneeling on the floor, but rather kneeling on a bench so you can crunch BELOW the level of your knees. I know you know this part, but here goes anyway: this is a crunch! NOT a lever move. Dont do this with a straight back, you need to slightly hyperextend at the top of the movement, then CRUNCH/CURL you spine down starting with your chin and ending with your elbows under the edge of the bench below your knees. Does that make sence? hope so....
--HEAVY Cross body Cable wood chops, the key to chops is that you MUST keep your pelvic girdle parallel to the movement, that is to say that you cant let your hips turn. The only way to pull that off is to turn you hips in the opposite direction of your arms as they cross over and to blow out allllll your air before you get to the apex of the movement: no air against diaphram, no obstruction between you and the crunch.
-- Super set of heavy weighted russian twists and 'plate' crunches,
Lay back on a decline situp bench, plate in hands, arms extended straight above head toward ceiling, SLOWWWWLY rotate to one side until the plate side touches the floor, rotate back up to center and then down to the other side. repeat. the key here is keep both of your preternatually small butcheeks on the bench so that the entire movement is tortionally controlled by your Int./Ext. obliques and transverse abomina, NOT your hip flexors. do a count of sixteen of these nasty feckers and when you come back up to center on these for the last one, THEN crunch up very slowly to get your scapulai completely off the bench while holding the plate with arms extended up toward the ceiling. the key here is to move the plate up and down as it it was attached to a piston shaft, NOT letting it move fore and aft. as with any crunch manuever, expell ALL of your air before you get to the top of the movement so that you are 'vacuumed' at the apex, you will TOTALLY freak at the change in perceived effort from that little tidbit and the results are exponentially better. does this make sense?


thats four. four is all you need for a day of hella nightmarish ab work. you covered the upper rectus, the lower, the int/ext obl., the trans. abdom.s and seratus in four exercises, all heavy as hell, all built to build depth, thickness and density to your abs, because as the old bald man said, 'if you want to SEE your abs, you have to HAVE some! You have to work them like you want to GROW them, or you will never see them except at ungodly low bodyfat.'

cheers mate. take what you dig, toss the rest.

RE: The vid: SWEET BRO! Looking forward to seeing these movments in action... the inverted style sounds wekkid FUN! :)

Ghedester, you'll be getting a vid shortly of the sarge (couple days at the latest)... :coffee:

B_B* you can expect to see it as well of course :heart:

I am making leaps and bounds at "just saying NO!" to cheating, lol.... oh the temptation is all around me :rolleyes: ... but waking up every few mornings and noticing progress is too great to give up right now.

Tonight may take off (doubt it) ... or hit chest again (chest hit saturday).

*that is all* for now... lots-o-work to do today :mix:

I love the idea of them all!!

This one, I did 3 or 4 sets the other day.. 40lb, 90lbs, 110lb, then the stack at 150lb...

I wish i was heavier to keep it on the ground more easily... but when i preformed the movement, I was lifted up a little bit :worried: ... crunching it down's no problem though... What do you suggest besides a gorrilla on my back for assistance, especially the below sea level one's?? {lower the weight keep it more controlled?}

weight: 189.5 lbs this a.m. after fluid release... getting leaner every day... Wish it didn't have to be "lighter" ..arrgggg matey, lol

UPDATE!!!!!

Took Pics... Declaring time to Lean Bulk!!

Maybe post some up tomorrow, if you boys and girls are good...we'll c if I want to share :p
 
before I leave for my slave work...

PICT29600.jpg


I'm pretty happy with the leanity I've achieved... I've gotten more results in a few weeks than throughout the ~5 months (time off/vacations in there) when I started... next time I'll be leaner and bigger (that's what it's all about, no?!).

I'm just sick of cutting... and that mentality. Hell I may be doing similar things on my lean bulk... but I wont' want to kill anbody from low carbing it, lol... dieting is the devil... Let's hope I don't get fat or injuryd. Now knowing how my body reacts to certain foods, ect I should be able to lean bulk pretty well... wish me luck :)

Nope. You have and will continue to make your own. You're good at it. For real.


I'll wish you 'challenges' instead, IronSarge.

Thanks... eh, my lean upper 4 pack is good for me... the lower abs are very flat when viewed from the side... not lean... a little layer on them, but I'm happy... this is the leanest I've EVER been... now that i know how my body likes to lean out... i'll be leaner next cut and bigger from the bulk before it :) I wish you happy lean bulking! :coffee: Thank you for the kind words!

SBT said:
Good Morning Sarge! :wavey: Lookin good :qt:
:D ..... Gooooooooooood MORNIN' Yellow One! Thank YOU! :rose:
 
looking GREAT SGT, nice 4 pack bro!!! get some YES, for the lower pac. I just picked up mine, hopefully i get it soon.

I also went ahead and got a premade eca stacker, so im going to run it with the YES, and since im on ECA, my receptors should uptake the YES alot better.
 
Thanks bro! Yeah that stack should work well for ya!

Na, i've used a few bottle before... maybe after into my lean bulk if I take a few weeks to diet down some.. not too worried.

I think i'm going to lean bulk until I start to loose sight of the abs, then back it down... and continue like that... all just thoughts for now though.

OH STFU ... He's got rippled bumps when viewed from the side... AHEM can I get the lat shot please? To compliment to tiny waist with that AWESOME V you got going on??? IMHO, It's sick and what I LOVE ... WOW ...

Sweetie, you RAWK & Kicked some major booty ... btw, he has one of the best BUTTs for a white boy ... I am NOT kidding ... It's BEAUTIFUL!

Time to lean bulk it up, those ABS ain't going anywhere ... :rose:

Good work bro! Made some major progress there. Impressive.
Ahhhh!!!

Glad to have you back mon!! :)

Thank you very much! My chest is coming along... better... not "there" yet of course though (is anything EVER going to be? lol).

The inner is getting much better, no longer a Pirate's Wet Dream land there as much at least.

Funny you should say that...when I first started this stuff, I had the classic "pirates dream". I worked my chest frequently, and fervently. Now guess what I get the most cheers for at a contest...my chest poses.

This is why I have so little regard fo the once a week bodypart folks. I knew nothing about that years ago,(back before all this pusedo science in bodybuilding) all I knew is I wanted a chest. I worked it, then worked it again, and some more. 3 times per week. And I ate.

Just had a guy in the gym the other day say dam, you got that Arnold chest developement!

Keep at it bro!
 
:)

No! Funny YOU should say that!

I said that because we spoke about that before... i asked you what the pirates dream was (clue less)... you've probably posted the exact same thing in here somewhere! :)

In total agreement... i'm going to be working a 4 day split i think for a while.... not concrete yet.

Lifter! Great to have you back. Always gives great advice.

Couldn't agree with you more about training bodyparts more often. The once a week per bodypart routine just doesn't seem to cut it for a natural athlete. I'm a big believer in more frequently hitting a bodypart with lower overall volume each time.

Funny how Arnold brought up his calve size by 2 inches by training them everyday with heavier and heavier weights.

I SHOULD train mine everyday for that very reason ... I have to hit calves 3 X a week minimum to experience the growth & SHAPE I have ... :) & right now there isn't much of anything :) :rolleyes:

Sorry Sarge, I'll stop jackin' your thread, my issues are all known & explained fully in my log :D
 
*Bunny* said:

Don't be afraid to work it! 3 times per week if needed. I used to do it on Monday, Thursday, and then go in on Saturday and do something completely different for chest. (cut down on sets, adding frequency...frequency for volume).

In other words, instead of pounding the chest into submission with 6 sets of everything for instance(flat bench, incline, decline, flies, machines, etc.), lower the workload to 3 qualty sets of heavy weight of the major movements.

This is plenty enough to stimulate the muscle. The idea is stimulation, not annihlation, then repeat on Thursday. On Saturday, do something different, like dumbbell benches, again only 3 quality sets.
 
Thanks Lifter!

I'm going to be setting up a routine based on 2-3x a week work all around... I love DB work... I HATE barbell bench... I feel it tweak my shoulders (joints) too much in a bad way.
 
I jsut saw that progress pic. NICE JOB! You beat me on the cutting thats for sure. But we will see who gets larger on the bulking. I know you already will have me on the back.... but i might be able to compete elsewhere. I have a LITTLE advantage though :evil:
 
Thanks!

lol... yeah a "little" bit there my anabolic buddy :chomp:

I swear the longer limbs I have give me a disadvantage with my chest too :p great for pulling big weight though :D

I'm sure you'll put on some good weight bro, keep eatin' and train your ASS off... ALOT... if you notice recovery skyrocketing put it to good use and stay in the gym... bring food with you... picnic at the squat rack... .then hit the weights some more :coffee:

I like your thinking .. NOW can you elaborate on quality sets ... assuming you're not going in there and loading up the plates & knockin out 6 piss poor reps ... but more along the lines of really focusing on the chest muscles ... i.e. Since these cannot be done properly for 6-8 reps with what one would consider normal weight, but lowering the weight when 6-8, even 10 reps can be achieved but with the focus of bring bar no lower than 1-2 inches off chest, & squeezing/holding for 2-4 seconds on the contraction/extension? A dear friend's chest really responded well to this after making a change like Sarge has been speaking of ... I am wondering your take, and a further explanation of your definition of a quality set :)

Im going to start split routines next week. Gotta plan it all out first. Trust me you dont have to worry about me lifting heavy and hard, but you might if you put me around some good pizza. :p

I agree with you here, chest was not my lacking area but rather my triceps. I did them 2 sometimes 3 times a week and it helped alot. Like you said focus on forum.

What you say is excellent. Quality is using visualization along with a method like you mention. The weight has to be heavy enough to stimulate, yet be able to do a quality rep. By the 6th-8th rep you should be failing. Always push your strength. If you do not stimulate the bulk of the fast twitch muscle fibers in the area you are working by rep 6, chances are you are not going to hit it.
 
Excellent... That's what I tried to do throughout my entire workout tonight!

ahhh..it's late.. I need my sleep... will post tomorrow and elaborate :)

You are me.


The recipe rounds out with the lovely phrase: 'Progressive Effort, SUBMAXIMAL Resistance"

There is a pound of paper that suggests that training styles like yours, and mine, that permit MORE FREQUENT training of progressive increases of reps/weight that DO NOT mimic the horsehocky that is UberDeathTear drop set forced rep nonsence, are equally as effective as that silly way to train: heaviest possible/by any and all means.

The whole submaximal effort plan lessens or near does-away-with the notion that nasty ass DOMS are somehow required for progress: bullshit, frankly. The whole HIT methodology works, fine, but does so at the expense of both any notion of frequency and brings far closer to the realm of ligature and muscle injury than should ever be acceptable.

Train to pain once a week or longer? Risk injury? Do the Frankenstein wobble due to DOMS that make yer eyes cross?

WHY!??!? If more frequent and progressive training will get you to the same result (+-2%) in a 16 week period as defined at Duke and elsewhere... why would you do it the other way?

If anyone says, 'Just to mix it up, keep it fresh, blahdy blahdy blah....' then you have never had a pec tear or rotator cuff twang across the room like a hair scrunchy because some assnozzle coach/trainer made you do your umpteenth USELESS forced rep.

In conlusion: Lifter, i dig ya, i dig your input and dig ya even more cause i agree with you.

Three exercises per major muscle group. MAYBE four on the very odd day. Three progessive sets. One at 40-45% of ORM to stim. the neuromusc. connection (muscle memory), second set 'workin for a livin' at a heavy enough % of your ORM to make the last rep doable but difficult: to access maximal blood volumization, solidify form and format, get the muscle truely preped for.... the third set where in the strictest of form you attempt 8 reps, you dont want them, you want to fail at 6-8. If you get 8, next week a % point in weight or so. If your form falters AT ALL< EVEN ONE TINY BIT, set over. Lat pulls? if you start to bend your wrist using your forearm to get the weight down, DONE! Bench? if you alter the angle of attach by changing the relationship of your spine to the bench, DONE! Straight arm pull-down? if you start to rotate your shoulders forward and use your abs to get the weight down to your quads, DONE! its NOT about just getting that last rep out by any means at your disposal. never EVA. 'But i could have done more' ummm... no... if you couldnt hold PERFECT form, you COULDNT. next time. Out and off of the gym floor on leg day in under 35-40 minutes with talk time. If it is taking you an hour and a half to do legs, then you either love to hang at the gym or might benefit from taking a long and open minded look at what it REALLY takes to stimulate muscle growth.

lather. rinse. repeat.

Yes, Sir, Thank you, SIR!

Will do... back to form and basics, time to retrain myself :) This is going to be a FUNNNNNNNNN RIDE!!!

Now I just need to figure out a split routine... pondering and mocking that out today.
 
Just came up with this...

Training Split

Day 1: Chest - Bi's -Abs
Day 2: Quads - Hams - Calves
Day 3: Chest - Bi's
Day 4: Back - Abs
Day 5: Delts - Tri's


Taking suggestions :)

I haven't drawn one of these up in a looooooooong time :rolleyes: Willing to lift 7 days a week...but, having 1 or 2 off would be nice for errands :verygood:

I will throw cardio in there as well... not a big deal... depending on the length of the workouts.

After the split is concrete... I will lay out exercises for each day and we will review that :coffee:

Goal: Improve Chest drastically along with bi and tri thickness for overall better proportionality.

Nah, not at all.. :)

:velvett: Just keeping on top of that fyne @$$ to make sure you structured your routine (or skeleton structured it) so you can begin down the path of success on this yet undiscovered road ... or if it's been awhile ... at least re-clearing the path :)

What exercises are you doing for this new split? Squats yet????
*Can you see me waving my hand frantically, like I'm going to pee my pants, b/c the teacher wont call on me ... *


"Yes, Bunny ... " - eye rolled...

Happy Bunny, " At this time the exercises have not been set in stone, since the split is still more of a skeleton, and not "concrete" ... after an actual split has been structured, the Sarge "will lay out exercises for each day" and everything thereafter will be individually tweaked ..."

"Bunny, are you on drung?"

"No Mr. Thumper."

"Here's your hat .. go sit in the corner..."

GO SARGE GO! I am getting tired just looking at your workout! :)
 
You always work out that long?

Natty T levels drop dramaticlly after 45 min.

I go over the time..... just wanted to say it.
 
I thought that Sarge needs to give himself some more credit with his recent progress & decision to lean bulk ... which is in the works.

SO .... I decided to do something special for him. You all have seen our friendship literally start & blossom on EF ... confusing the heck out of you all along the way ... my specialty ... I wanted to put together something to show him just how awesome he has done ... we are easily our own worst critics :rose:

The current pics are of course after a full day of eating but nonetheless, you have done amazing ... I wish you the best of luck with your current endeavors

:wodin:
 
Wowzers Sarge!!! :google: You've made AWESOME progress!! Amazing!!

LOOOOOVE the jeans pic!! And the one pic with the chest of drawers & the lamp?? I have that same chest & lamp........ copycat!! ;)
 
LOL -- sarge you HAVE to know that no one is immune from the Bunny tooting your horn for you -- WELL EARNED & WELL DESERVED! You have to be so happy w/ your progress and that general improvement in how you feel in general is amazing. For myself -- after spending the last 6 months living in sweat suits & digging out my "fat clothes" for the few "social engagements" i've had, I now fit into most of my "skinny clothes' from last year or even 5 yrs ago when I actually had a social life and its awesome. Its like I have a whole new wardrobe w/o spending any money. You cannot fight that feeling of "DAMN I LOOK GOOD", even if you don't feel it sometiems day to day.

Definitely MEGA PROPS TO THE SARGE!

Progress speaks for itself brutha. :coffee:

I know, it was long...it was friday night, and i didn't feel like leaving at all...i actually wanted to do more after capping of the workout with Deads :evil:

My nutrition is on point, don't worry :) ... pre workout nutrition is what gets me through a workout like that broski.

P.S. maybe not today though, today is cheat day... just ate a waffle with strawberries and whip cream on top.... and 4 egg beaters... more indulgence to come :verygood:

P.P.S :D VERY HAPPY about the scale... i think i may be able to hit 215 + lbs LEAN in a few months... i was 204lbs this morning...granted a little water... but i'm not bloated looking ... WOOHOO!

lol... i did go back to sleep and get up at 1pm though... not sure if that counts or not :)

IBpro before and after... didn't ice... knee feels great... kicked back and watched a movie while eating some food and a diet root beer...ahhhh, lazy Sunday :)
 
No way am I able to get, in clean amounts (besides ANPB ;) ), a caloric surplus... maybe it's my lack of carbs still... yah, i think so.

Ok, I'm going to start doing fitday again until I find a happy medium.

~ 4,000 calories are nessesary on training days :rolleyes: I don't think i've EVER eaten that "cleanly."

B-12 helps with increasing hunger so I hear. Hunger is not a problem if I ate like a "normal" person...but packing it in every few hours takes practice, lol.
 
Muscle Milk for that cals dude.

It aint easy eating 700 cals a meal 6 times a day.

Get ready to bu a whole crate of ANPB. saves my ass. I think half the week that I am on the aNPB diet.

If you need something extreme periactin will make you eat like a horse... clean or dirty.
What I found on "periactin"

GoogleSearch said:
cyproheptadine
Pronunciation: sip row HEP ta deen
Brand: Periactin

What is the most important information I should know about cyproheptadine?
Use caution when driving, operating machinery, or performing other hazardous activities. Cyproheptadine may cause dizziness or drowsiness. If you experience dizziness or drowsiness, avoid these activities.
Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking cyproheptadine.

What is cyproheptadine?
Cyproheptadine is an antihistamine. Cyproheptadine blocks the effects of the naturally occurring chemical histamine in your body.

Cyproheptadine is used to treat sneezing; runny nose; itching, watery eyes; hives; rashes; itching; and other symptoms of allergies and the common cold.

Although not approved by the FDA for this purpose, cyproheptadine has been used to stimulate appetite in underweight patients.

Cyproheptadine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

Who should not take cyproheptadine?
Do not take cyproheptadine if you have taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) in the last 14 days. A very dangerous drug interaction could occur, leading to serious side effects.

Before taking this medication, tell your doctor if you have

glaucoma or increased pressure in the eye;
a stomach ulcer;
an enlarged prostate, bladder problems, or difficulty urinating;
an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism);
hypertension or any type of heart problems; or
asthma.
You may not be able to take cyproheptadine, or you may require a lower dose or special monitoring during treatment if you have any of the conditions listed above.

Cyproheptadine is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means that it is unlikely to harm an unborn baby. Do not take cyproheptadine without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant.

Cyproheptadine passes into breast milk. Infants are especially sensitive to the effects of antihistamines, and serious side effects could occur in a nursing baby. Cyproheptadine is not recommended if you are breast-feeding a baby. Do not take cyproheptadine without first talking to your doctor if you are nursing a baby.

If you are over 60 years of age, you may be more likely to experience side effects from cyproheptadine. You may require a lower dose of this medication.

How should I take cyproheptadine?
Take cyproheptadine exactly as directed by your doctor. If you do not understand these directions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you.

Take each dose with a full glass of water.

Cyproheptadine can be taken with or without food.

To ensure that you get a correct dose, measure the syrup form of cyproheptadine with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not with a regular tablespoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist where you can get one.

Never take more of this medication than is prescribed for you. The maximum amount of cyproheptadine that you should take in 1 day is 32 mg.

Store cyproheptadine at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take only your next regularly scheduled dose. Do not take a double dose of this medication unless otherwise directed by your doctor.

What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention.

Symptoms of a cyproheptadine overdose include extreme sleepiness, confusion, weakness, ringing in the ears, blurred vision, large pupils, dry mouth, flushing, fever, shaking, insomnia, hallucinations, and possibly seizures.

What should I avoid while taking cyproheptadine?
Use caution when driving, operating machinery, or performing other hazardous activities. Cyproheptadine may cause dizziness or drowsiness. If you experience dizziness or drowsiness, avoid these activities.
Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking cyproheptadine.

What are the possible side effects of cyproheptadine?
Stop taking cyproheptadine and seek emergency medical attention if you experience an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives).

Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to take cyproheptadine and talk to your doctor if you experience

sleepiness, fatigue, or dizziness;
headache;
dry mouth; or
difficulty urinating or an enlarged prostate.
Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.

What other drugs will affect cyproheptadine?
Do not take cyproheptadine if you have taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) in the last 14 days. A very dangerous drug interaction could occur, leading to serious side effects.

Talk to your pharmacist before taking other over-the-counter cough, cold, allergy, or insomnia medications. These products may contain medicines similar to cyproheptadine, which could lead to an overdose of antihistamine.

Before taking this medication, tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines:

anxiety or sleep medicines such as alprazolam (Xanax), diazepam (Valium), chlordiazepoxide (Librium), temazepam (Restoril), or triazolam (Halcion);
medications for depression such as amitriptyline (Elavil), doxepin (Sinequan), nortriptyline (Pamelor), fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), or paroxetine (Paxil); or
any other medications that make you feel drowsy, sleepy, or relaxed.
Drugs other than those listed here may also interact with cyproheptadine. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines.

Where can I get more information?
Your pharmacist has more information about cyproheptadine written for health professionals that you may read.

What does my medication look like?
Cyproheptadine is available with a prescription under the brand name Periactin. Other brand and generic formulations may also be available. Ask your pharmacist any questions you have about this medication, especially if it is new to you.

Periactin 4 mg--round, white, scored tablets
Periactin 2 mg per 5 mL (1 teaspoon)
Probably not going to happen.

I'm probably going to have a few am workouts too :evil:

they might get hit 3-5 times per week, lol... there's no telling, i'll do random bi stuff here and there but i'm really feeling them get worked on chest and back now that i'm doing pause reps.

REAAAALLLY SLOW... pause a few seconds at top of movement and squeeze... and hold at the bottom.

^^^ fuggin' tough, I love it :chomp:

I smell growth!!!

I'm pretty much at the weight i stopped bulking at this winter too :D
There's no telling where i'll be in a few months!!!! ;)

:FRlol:

Of course you read my workout :) Get outta mah brain ...
 
honestly, as always... no i didn't read your workout first... if i did post over there first i just skimed it... i always go back and read throughly :)

We are odd.

Get outa my DOME!!!! lol... ok, off to train my pecs off :artist:

Just came up with this...

Training Split

Day 1: Chest - Bi's -Abs
Day 2: Quads - Hams - Calves
Day 3: Chest - Bi's
Day 4: Back - Abs
Day 5: Delts - Tri's


Taking suggestions :)

I haven't drawn one of these up in a looooooooong time :rolleyes: Willing to lift 7 days a week...but, having 1 or 2 off would be nice for errands :verygood:

I will throw cardio in there as well... not a big deal... depending on the length of the workouts.

After the split is concrete... I will lay out exercises for each day and we will review that :coffee:

Goal: Improve Chest drastically along with bi and tri thickness for overall better proportionality.


Just eyeballing this.. i was wondering how you might react in terms of growth and density to a slightly different gig... very old school, i know, but lets look at this as a vague suggestion ready to be modified, cool idea? hope i am not overstepping here, just holler and i will shut it.

Classic Three Day On, Double Split:

Days one to three, all the work is three sets max, 8 reps per set. Progressive Resistance/Submaximal Effort. Form is God, no forced reps, no negatives, just you and the highest level of true form and concentration possible. ALWAYS an increase in either weight or reps on the third set, even if its only a single LB. Constant progression.

Day 1
Legs and Delts
Squats, Heavy 45degree Lunges, SLDeads, and a super of HamCurls/LegExt
All DB's: Seated Militaries, Lateral Raises, Alternating Front raises, Bent over Laterals

Day 2
Chest and Tris
In order: incline DBs, Flat Bench DBs, decline DBs, and Heavy Cable cross overs. All with supra maximal static holds on the top of each movement: total flexing anhiliation on the full cross over of the cable flys.
DB press ups (elbows maintained as close together as possible: if they splay, you cant play)
Bent Bar Press Downs: elbows at front of rib cage, they must not move even one centimeter, complete hyperextension and static hold at bottom.
Reverse grip cable kicks OR Heavy DB Kicks, NOT both. elbows to back of rib cage on either of these, same flex at apex.

Hard and heavy core. Hiit Cardio.

Day 3

Back n' Bi's
On ALL back work: your elbows are doing the pulling- your hands, wrists and forearms are only invited to this party to hold onto the bar/handles/dbs. If you bend your wrist to incorporate ANY forearm strength: YOU ARE DONE.

Heavy wide grip lat pulls followed by weighted pull ups.
Close grip low rows, abdomen is the target NOT the sternum, your forearms must be parallel to the ground or its NOT a low row. at the apex, visualize trying to touch your elbows together.
Either Supinated one arm cable rows or one arm db rows. the key here is that your elbow should rub against your ribs as it goes by: as tight to the body as is possible. If your elbows splay out? done. no mas.

Day 4

A day of rest, and it was good. Much rejoicing was had by the Hill People.

Day 5
might be a day off depending on how your legs are doing, might be hard and heavy core followed by HIIT

If recovery is good....

Legs, Back and Shoulders: Dynamic. Higher reps, minimal rest, submaximal weights. Anaerobic threshold work days, very much like modified Tabata training. You can EASILY turn this into a Monster set hurl fest if you like.

Day 6
Chest, Bi's n' Tri's

same recipe as the previous day with addition of moderately high rep core work, UNweighted:
V-Ups
Yoga Boat Pose Static Holds
Full and Oblique Planks
Knee crunches on the edge of a bench: no hands. you gotta balance on these and get your heels as close to the floor as you can on one end and your knees must hit your chest on the other. Long and steady on these, 25 reps max. if 25 is too easy, slooooowwww dowwwwwn or put a 10lb DB tween your feet. That'll slow ya up some...

:lmao:


Day 7

Rest Day Two and your highest carb/calorie day of the week in preparation for tomorows heavy leg day...




Ok, bro, i know, i know, its so old school that most of the boys here are laughing at it. Tell you what, if you havent gone this way before, you might see some things along the path that might miss with more complex work.

Heavy. Steady. Strict. Correct.

I think you will like it. If not, maybe it will help some other folks... i use this five day out of seven or eight days for most of the folks i work that are really in need/desire some seriously hard core density and solid strenght gains. This is NOT a basic Hypertrophy program, but will gain you some mass. It is not a 'cutter' but on a restricted program this will most certainly slice you to pieces...

Remember what the old man says: 'Intensity Breeds Density, Quantity Destroys Quality.'

cheers mon.
