Build rock hard muscle and develop superhuman strength by following this training program!

In addition to exercising, you’ll want to aim at increasing your caloric intake to exceed the amount that your burn during these training sessions.  You also have the option of adding performance supplements to your diet. These will help fuel your muscles during the workouts and give them the building blocks necessary for repair and growth. These are the supplements I use in my training:

1RM1 Rep Max

ECCENTRIC

In an eccentric exercise, your muscle stays contracted while lengthening.

EXAMPLE: It’s the downward motion of a push-up, pull-up, or squat.

ISOMETRIC

During isometric exercises, the muscle doesn’t noticeably change length and the affected joint doesn’t move.

EXAMPLE: A wall sit, plank, or handstand hold.

CONCENTRIC

During a concentric exercise, the muscle length will shorten.

EXAMPLE: The upward motion of a bench press, dumbbell row, or bicep curl.

___________________*

INTENSITY LEVELS

This will be the resistance weight you use in each exercise.  There are 3 options available.

1 )    X % of your 1RM

2 )     X % of your BW

3 )    BW only

Resistance weight used in each exercise

1 )    50-70 % of your 1RM

2 )    BW only

_______________________

TRAINING PROGRAMS 
STABILIZATION *
Resistance weight used in each exercise:
  1. 50-70 % of your 1RM
  2. BW only

_______________________

Stabilization Training is used to increase muscular endurance and stability.  It will help improve your ability to stabilize your joints and posture; high repetitions with a focus on increasing your proprioception.

    An example of this is 1-3 sets of:
    12-20 reps, performing a push-up or barbell bench press at 50-70% your 1RM or BW only.  There will be a rest period of 0-90 seconds between each set.
STRENGTH ENDURANCE *
Resistance weight used in each exercise:
  1. 70-80 % of your 1RM
  2. BW only

_______________________

Strength Endurance Training means training with a moderate number of repetitions with heavier weights.  This phase of training will help your body adapt to higher volume workouts while increasing your strength.  This type of training will involve compound sets of exercises.

    An example of this is 2-4 sets of:
    8-12 reps at 70-80% of your 1RM, performing a more stable exercise, such as a Smith Machine bench press, immediately followed by a less stable exercise (more balance focused), such as a dumbbell flye.  There will be no rest after the first exercise and a rest period of 1 minute after the second exercise.
HYPERTROPHY *
Resistance weight used in each exercise:
  1. 75-85 % of your 1RM
  2. BW only

_______________________

Hypertrophy Training refers to an increase in muscular size by increasing the number of sets performed while increasing the amount of resistance used.  The amount of reps for each set will be moderate to low.

    An example of this is 3-5 sets of:
    6-12 reps, performing the barbell chest press at 75-85% of your 1RM. There will be a rest period of 1 minute between each set.
MAX STRENGTH *
Resistance weight used in each exercise:
  1. 85-100 % of your 1RM
  2. BW only

_______________________

Max Strength Training is a measure of how much force your body can exert.

    An example of this is 4-6 sets of:
    1-5 reps, performing a barbell bench press at 85–100% of your 1RM.  There will be a rest period of 3-5 minutes between each set.
POWER *
Resistance weight used in each exercise:
  1. FIRST EXERCISE
    • 85-100% of your 1RM
  2. SECOND EXERCISE
    • 35-45% of your 1RM
    • ≤ 10% of your BW
    • BW only

Power Training typically involves exercises which apply the maximum amount of force as fast as possible.  It is based on the idea that Strength + Speed = Power.  Power training workouts will combine a Strength exercise with a Power exercise for each body part.

    An example of this is 3-5 sets of:
    1-5 reps at 85-100% of your 1RM, performing a more strength focused exercise, such as a barbell bench press, immediately followed by performing 8-10 reps at ≤ 10% of your BW or 30-45% of your 1RM, a speed focused exercise such as a medicine ball chest pass.  There will be no rest after the first exercise and a rest period of 2 minutes after the second exercise.

  • You will perform 12 reps of a barbell bench press. For each repetition, you will take 2 seconds to lower the bar to your chest (eccentric muscle contraction), no pause at the bottom (isometric muscle contraction), and another 2 seconds to push the bar back up (concentric muscle contraction).
  • IMMEDIATELY following last repetition of the bench press, or at least with minimal amount of rest time possible, you will perform 12 reps of a dumbbell chest flye. For each repetition, you will take 4 seconds to lower the dumbbells to the each side of your body (eccentric muscle contraction), pause at the bottom for 2 seconds (isometric muscle contraction), and 1 second to bring the dumbbells back together at the top (concentric muscle contraction). Rest 60 seconds, and repeat.
