| routine notes |
| The following basic routine is based on a training
program that I have used with great success. With this routine, you
have three days of rest per week and four training days total. While
that sounds pretty easy, if you attack the weights with intensity,
you'll see dramatic changes. Stick to rep schemes between 6-10 for each
set. You can easily modify this program to meet your specific needs by
adding sets and different exercises. Good luck at putting together the
routine that just might make you a champion. | |
