The Ultimate No BS Routine

The best physiques were all built by hard work on the basic, heavy duty exercises. There are NO exceptions to this statement.

The problem of WHAT these basic exercisers are, and HOW HARD one must work on them for satisfactory, or even startling results, is one that every bodybuilder and strength trainer, at one time or another during his career, is confronted with.

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. With that in mind, here is a routine than incorporates everything we just talked about and more. I call it the Ultimate Routine.

As always, I will not put up sets and reps to perform. I believe that is up to the individual and his ability to bounce back from training. Do what feels right for you. But do work hard, you’ll only be cheating yourself if you don’t. Hard, intense work on basic exercises is what builds long lasting muscle and power.

Squats
Bench Press or Dips
Deadlift
Rows
Overhead Press
Chins or Pulldowns

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. If doing deadlifts and squat are too much for you, alternate both during workouts. 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.
