Advanced Programs

This program is designed for people that have been weight lifting for at least one year. There are additional exercises listed compared to the previous work outs because specific parts of each muscle will be exercised. Once you have the muscle mass, this program will fine tune your body for the beaches. The amount of sets to be completed should be 4 per exercise, with the first one as a warm-up. Repetitions should range from 8 - 12.

This body building routine is for those who can work out every day of the week. This routine is a transition program for people who have hit a sticking point or want to exercise a specific muscle group harder. I would only recommend use of this routine for four weeks at a time. The volume of training is increased but the frequency is drastically reduced so strength gains will not be as great as size.
