Basic Mass Builder Routine

Heavy Lifting + Solid Nutrition + Plenty of Rest = Huge Gains.

That’s the formula for packing on slabs of mass. Follow this routine religiously, working out 2-3 days per week and you’ll see results very quickly.

You get big and strong doing full body workouts filled with compound, multi-joint movements. No isolation stuff is needed when you’re going for mass and power. I know I sound like a broken record and that’s because it’s true.

The barbell curl is in this routine because I know deep, down, lifters want to hit their biceps with this iso exercise. Even though it isn’t needed.

Workout One:
Bench Press
Overhead Press
Squats
Calf Raises

Workout Two:
Rows
Pulldowns
Curls
Deadlifts

Notes: Train consistently 2-3 days per week and use whatever set and rep scheme you feel comfortable with. It could be one or two sets to failure, 5 x 5, singles, doubles, triples – anything you want, so long as you’re consistent and work hard. Add weight to the bar whenever possible and get lots of rest, eat good food and drink plenty of water.

Understand that to be successful in any weight training program – hard work is a must! Half-hearted effort does nothing for you. If you’re new to weight training or grossly out of shape, consult a physician first. End of disclaimer.

Total Body Blaster Routine II

Here’s another total body blaster workout that will do wonders for your physique.

Just like the title implies, this routine works on your body as a whole – no split routines or isolation exercises here.

Perform this workout 2-3 times a week and add some cardio intervals on your off days and you will be a fat-burning, muscle-building machine.

Sticking to basic compound power lifts is the way to go. They’re the building blocks to power and size. Fooling around with iso exercises is foolish and an excuse for not wanting to do the real hard and heavy work.

The basic principle to strength training is this: An exercise is worthwhile if it allows you to use very heavy weights — brings into play the BIG muscle groups — and causes lots of puffing and panting.

Training on the big exercises builds health, strength and lasting muscle size. These three factors are very important. That’s what you’ll get with this workout.

Dips
Front Squats
Pulldowns
Deadlifts
Overhead Press

Train consistently 2-3 days per week and use whatever set and rep scheme you feel comfortable with. It could be one or two sets to failure, 5 x 5, singles, doubles, triples – anything you want, so long as you’re consistent and work hard. Add weight to the bar whenever possible and get lots of rest, eat good food and drink plenty of water.

Tuesday Video: CrossFit Workout

This is cool little workout/race between two CrossFit proponents.

The muscular endurance required to do a workout like this is impressive. My only problem is they shouldn’t have cheated on the pullups. It’s still a pretty tough workout, but they aren’t doing the pushups properly.

Remember, go for quality reps not quantity.
