4 Weeks to More Mass: Week 3 Training Log

4 Weeks to More Mass: Week 3 Training Log

              WEEK THREE






MONDAY: LEGS

 

* After the last set rest 2 minutes. Add 10-20% more to the bar and perform a negative-only by lowering the bar to the safety pins which should be set to the bottom position of your squat depth. [Do not complete the lifting portion of the movement] Rerack the bar and repeat for 1 more negative-only rep. Keep in mind, this is an advanced movement and should only be performed by individuals with a solid base of training knowledge and experience.

** Perform with feet low and narrow on the platform.

*** Place your hands about your head and lower yourself into a squat position, then explosively jump off the floor. Rest as needed, but the goal is to complete as many reps as possible with as little rest as possible.

TUESDAY: CHEST AND BACK

 
* Perform a double drop set during your first set of this exercise. After your last rep of your last (5th) set, set down the bar and remove 20-30% of the load. Perform an additional 2-3 reps. Set down the bar, remove another 20% of the load, rest 15 seconds, perform another 1-2 reps.

** Grab a pair of dumbbells, unlock your knees and bend at the waist until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor. With your palms facing towards you, begin to row the weights up towards your rib cage. As you row, rotate your hands so that by the time you reach the top position your palms are facing away as they would be as the top of a curl. Reverse the movement on the lower portion of the movement.

*** Rest as needed but the goal is to complete as many reps as possible with as little rest as possible.
