Training http://blog.bodybuilding.com/MJHdms/1969/12/31// I am not sure how this daily blog thing works however I am just going to update on a daily basis how my diet/training is coming along. For some quick updates I have done pretty much the exact same training program/routine for the past 5 years or so with consistent results. It is basically a high-volume, high-intensity, high-frequency style training.

My actual split is the following:

  • Chest
  • Back
  • Shoulders
  • Arms
  • (repeat)

I honestly do not take any rest days unless I feel they are needed. Now given I rarely go to muscular failure and typically aim for minimal rest periods and really hitting the muscle group from as many angles as possible. 

Tonight I did chest in the gym and started off with a dropset of about 9 sets of pec-deck flyes. I started with the entire stack (295 lbs.) and did sets of 6 all the way down to 85 lbs. Moved onto seated cable presses if you will, almost like a chest press only your hands are free. I’ll do all angles here, decline/flat/incline - and did a dropset of 6 total sets. Finished up with a dropset of Hammer Strength bench presses 5 sets total, and then did some internal/external cable rotations and some abs and called it a day.

Diet was clean, usual. During the week especially Monday-Friday my diet is typically very very clean. Lots of protein shakes, turkey burgers, etc. Snack on almonds, etc.
