Domination Workout Plan
Domination Workout Plan:
The goal of the Domination Workout is to add quality size and strength without adding fat. The goal is to “recomposition” your body so that your weight will stay close to the same it is now by cutting fat and gaining quality muscle at the same time.
How it works:
The Domination Workout Plan consists of various workouts in combination with a quality meal plan. Cardio is high intensity based with only sprints mixed with jogging/walking. This has been proven to target fat better than long walks/jogs.

Summary:
The goal is to keep up with this workout for at least 8 weeks. At the end of the 8 weeks, you can switch to a different workout or start at the beginning of the Pump Phase. Alternating Pump Phase with Strength Phase gives your muscles a break and helps you build new muscle. Your goal should be to increase your bench press max by 30 pounds over the course of the 8 week program. Should see an increase of 50 pounds on squats. The idea is get stronger, get more ripped, and gain muscle without gaining any fat.
