Today’s Workout: Training With Intensity

Sick of your same old workout routine week after week?

 I feel like there’s times when I can predict everyone’s workout for the week at local gyms. Chest on Monday, Shoulders on Tuesday, Legs on Wednesday..blah blah blah you get the point. I got an idea for you, change it up! Keep your body guessing, it will spark results and muscle gain! Below, I have a mini circuit for you guys.

Give todays workout a try to let me know what you think.

REMEMBER…..GET AFTER IT. If you don’t do this with relentless intensity…Don’t even bother looking at the workout. Challenge YOURSELF.

Here ya go, knock your socks off!

  1. Single Arm Dumbbell Clean x 4
  2. Single Arm Snatch x 4
  3. Pull ups x 10
  4. Inverted Row x 10
  5. Variation Push-Ups x 25

Repeat this circuit 3-5 times as tolerated. Time yourself and try to beat your time every time.

following your circuit…

  1. Behind the Back Barbell Shrug 2 x 20
  2. Regular Barbell Shrug 3 x 10
  3. Dumbbell Holds 3 x 30 seconds (find the heaviest dumbbell and hold it, work on your grip strength)
  4. 200 decline sit-ups
  5. 50 hanging knee-ups

.HUSTLE HARD. 

Hard-Gainer Tips

If your new to the game, or just a skinny hardgainer….this one’s for you.

Want to Put on Size? Are you a Hardgainer? Don’t have a lot of time to train?

  I am going to supply you guys with a basic template and tips to help you pack on that size just in time for the summer. There are a lot of crazy workouts out there, but it is important to keep it basic.

Keeping it basic will get you RESULTS

By keeping it basic, I mean using a variety of compound lifts. Compound lifts will not only add size, they add strength. My favorite compound lifts include:

  • Squats
  • Pull-ups
  • Dead-lifts
  • Military Press
  • Bench Press
  • Push-ups
  • Dips

Try to incorporate 3-5 exercises into your workout. I recommend putting in a  push, a pull, and a lower body exercise. You could also add some isolation exercises, but do not have your workout consist of ONLY isolation exercises. Every workout should have no more than 8-15 total sets per workout.  The time you spend in the gym should be 3-4 times a week at 45 minutes each training session. It is important to let your body rest and recover.

 So get in the gym, CRUSH the weights, and GET OUT.

TRAIN YOUR A** OFF AND EAT LIKE A HORSE
