pull down to refresh

40 total reps per exercise

After the first set, I rest only long enough to hit 3-5 reps on the next set

DAY A:

  • front squats
  • underhand pulldowns
  • slight incline bench
  • wide seated rows
  • nordic curls

  • tricep pressdown
  • standing calf raise
  • dumbbell shrugs

DAY B:

  • romanian deadlift
  • lat pulldown
  • dips
  • dumbbell row
  • back squat
  • reverse curl
  • overhead tricep extension
  • standing calf raise
  • lateral dumbbell raise

I also have some forearm work each day. If you do something like this workout, alter the exercises for the equipment that's available to you.

Also, don't kill yourself starting out. Start with fewer exercises and/or lower weight, taking your ego out of it so you're not ungodly sore in the beginning until you're used to your workouts.

Lifting is a marathon, not a sprint. Increase weight slowly workout-by-workout so your tendons don't get hammered, stretch after workouts, warm up properly, prevent further complications down the road.
