Not much to report. Another week in the books!
Bodybuilding is a marathon. The sport can feel a lot like living groundhog day everyday. It’s easy to train gung-hoe when you are 4 weeks out from a contest. However, it’s in the offseason where the real gains are made. That’s why it’s so important to make bodybuilding a part of your life – and not let it take over your life.
I slightly altered my workout program two weeks ago to incorporate more lower rep ranges and to really focus on trying to increase my strength on the big compound lifts such as the squat, bench press, deadlift, bent over barbell row, wide grip pull ups, overhead barbell shoulder press etc.
The breakdown of my workout split is as follows:
1. Legs power
2. Chest, shoulder, triceps power
3. Back, biceps power
4. Off day (15 minutes steady state cardio on the stepmill, 20 minutes of cardio intervals on the stepmill and abs)
5. Legs hypertrophy
6. Chest, shoulder, triceps hypertrophy
7. Back, biceps hypertrophy
8. Off day (15 minutes steady state cardio on the stepmill, 20 minutes of cardio intervals on the stepmill and abs)
