Video 1: The 5 Best Exercises for Building Mass & Power

This first video is “The 5 Best Exercises for Building Mass & Power.” The title of the video makes everything pretty self explanatory.

I was supposed to lead off with “How to Gain 10 Pounds of Solid Muscle in Just 30 Days” video first, but to be brutally honest, I was under the weather the last couple days and didn’t get it finished yet. It will be available tomorrow.

In the meantime, I think you’ll find this informative. Just click on the image below to see the video. It’s around 11 or 12 minutes.

The Ultimate Workout Program

I’ve got a quick little post I think you’ll enjoy and one that I’m jacked to tell you about. Even more awesome is this is my 400th post on this blog. Thanks to you all for being here.

A few posts back I briefly mentioned research and testing I’ve been doing with some of my personal training clients. The results have been spectacular to say the least.

While I don’t want to get into much detail here just yet, some of my clients have made muscle mass and strength gains by as much as 20-40% over previous gains in just one month! I have one client who went from a 150-pound deadlift to almost 300 pounds in just 30 days.

What does this have to do with you? Good question.

I will soon be launching two membership sites based on my new training methods and research: The Ultimate Workout Program and the Ultimate 40 Workout Program (for those 40 and over).

Now don’t worry, I’m not trying to pitch anything to you. ‘m going to give you some great info about the websites and my new training method that makes up the Ultimate Workout Program.

The websites are only part of the plan to improve your life. The other is to reward you for following me all these years.

I will be creating a video that will explain the sites in detail, but I wanted to let you know that everyone who joins either site will be eligible to win monthly prizes worth up to $500. That’s 500 bucks in prizes a month, every month, for as long as you’re a member.

Also, I’m using the member sites to build case studies proving how good my Ultimate Workout Program is. This is where it really gets good.

Those who join either site and commit to following the program will be eligible for entry into the Ultimate Workout Program Physique Contest.

This 16-week contest is similar to Bill Phillips’ “Body for Life” contest. After 16 weeks, the entries will be judged and the winner will walk away with $5,000, an Ultimate Workout Program T-Shirt and lots of other cool prizes. I’ll let you know all the rules and everything else involved in a later post and video.

The sites will go live next Wednesday and during the days leading up to the launch, I’ll be giving you some great content, mostly videos, that you can put to use right away. The first video will be ready by Friday or Saturday and it’s titled, “How to Gain 10 Pounds of Solid Muscle in Just 30 Days.”

Talk to you soon.

Strongman Routines: Bruce Wilhelm

This is the third in a special series of posts on a famous strongman and one of their routines that will appear on the site. Today we take a look at Bruce Wilhelm.

Bruce was a weightlifter and strongman who won the World’s Strongest Man competition in 1977 and 1978 and the author of numerous strength-related articles and books.

Wilhelm started out as a track & field and wrestling star before moving on to weightlifting. He captured the National AAU Super Heavyweight Weightlifting Champion for both 1975 and 1976. He won a silver medal for the United States at the 1975 Pan-American Games in Mexico City in the +110 kg division, and placed 5th at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal, QC, Canada. He also won the silver medal in the snatch competition.

Here is a typical Wilhelm workout:

Monday & Friday:
Snatch
Clean & Jerk
Overhead Press

Wednesday:
Squats
Front Squats
Deadlifts

Notes: Wilhelm would use many different set and rep schemes, such as 8 x 3, 5 x 5, triples and singles. Use whatever feels comfortable for you. Two days per week would be devoted to Olympic lifting and one, and sometimes two days per week were devoted to powerlifts. If that’s too much, drop down to 2-3 days a week. Remember, train hard and heavy with max intensity and you can’t go wrong.

Stay tuned for a major announcement coming Wednesday. It’s gonna be pretty awesome and best of all, you have a chance to win some decent money in the process.

A Mr. Universe Workout

Here is a workout from 1959 Mr. Universe champion, Bruce Randall.

Randall liked to work mostly upper body with squats or deadlift being his only lower body exercise. Below is a typical workout that Randall followed on his way to the 1959 Mr. Universe crown.

Mr. Universe Workout
Overhead Press 3 x 4-6
Bench Press 3 x 4-6
Incline Bench Press 3 x 4-6
Curls 3 x 4-6
Chins 3 x 4-6
Squats or Deadlifts 3 x 6-8

Notes: Randall trained 3-4 days per week and would alternate squats and deadlifts. As always, train hard and with maximum effort. If 3-4 days is too much, lower it to 2 days. Train hard and heavy.

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.

Strongman Routines: Don Reinhoudt

After experimenting with weightlifting, Don Reinhoudt began powerlifting in 1969.

Don took 3rd place in the Open Division at the inaugural 1972 AAU World Powerlifting Championships with a 2,150 lb total. He finished in 1st place at the World Powerlifting Championships from 1973 to 1976, also winning the US National titles during the same span.

He was the only Super Heavyweight to hold World Records in all three lifts simultaneously. He was the first man to break the 2,400 lb barrier, with a 2,420 lb total. His career-best total was 2,429 lb.

Don won the World’s Strongest Man title in 1979. His best lifts were 937 in the squat, 606 in the bench press, and 900 in the deadlift.

Here’s a typical Reinhoudt workout:

Lower Body
Squat
Deadlift
Front Squats

Upper Body
Bench Press
Incline Bench Press
Overhead Press
Power Cleans

Notes: Reinhoudt would use many different set and rep schemes, such as 8 x 3, 5 x 5, triples and singles. Use whatever feels comfortable for you. He would workout 4 days per week (twice each on lower and upper body). If that’s too much, drop down to 2-3 days a week. Remember, train hard and heavy with max intensity and you can’t go wrong.

Stay tuned for a major announcement coming next Wednesday. It’s gonna be pretty awesome and best of all, you have a chance to win some major money in the process.
