GET YOURS
This training routine is designed for a complete 12 week cycle. There are different size work loads to get your body building much muscle mass as possible while also delivering awesome amount of strength. Weight adjustment should be made when the required amount of reps can't be reached within the required load. In other words if the weight to be used is to heavy to get say 8 reps, lower the weight slighty on your next set to get eight reps. Keeping a daily training log helps to get rid these problems.
