A Mr. Universe Workout
November 7, 2008
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.
