Notes
This workout does well whether you are cutting or bulking. For cutting, make sure you reduce your calories, and eat your carbs around your workout to use insulin towards muscle production vs fat accumulation. If bulking, up your calories.
Abs? You can add them to any of the above workouts. You will get a lot of core work from bench, squats, and rack pulls. I would just do a few sets each week.
Increase weight and intensity when needed. I shouldn’t have to tell you when something is becoming easy. My favorite supplements for this workout?
Favorite Supplements
- Post Workout Stack (bulking or cutting): Your body will be in desperate need for glycogen replenishment and protein for muscle recovery and growth. The absolute best choice is the Post Workout Stack from 1st Phorm. High quality protein and carbohydrates to build new muscle while repairing existing.
- Project-1 Pre Workout (bulking or cutting): Project-1 is the best pre-workout on the market. Why? It gives you the correct dosages of creatine, beta alanine, agmatine sulfate, caffeine, BCAAs, and betaine that your body needs to maximize workout, recovery, and energy.
Summary
