These two resistance training workout routines can get you every bit as powerful as you will seem!  

Within the A&B-Rotation Method, we mix 2 Weight Training Workout routines into One

You will use a work out “A&B-Rotation”, that means two different -yet similar- systems intertwined with one another.

It’s simple: one does 1 circuit, or round, from the 1st weight training workout, then do 1 of of the second, you then return to the 1st, etc.

Here’s the notation:

Strength Training Work out A:

Day one, Lower Body:

A: Deadlifts, 10×6-8rep max, 31X0 tempo, 150s. rest

Day 2, Upper Body:

A1: Shoulder Width Chin Ups, 10×6-8rep max, 3X10 tempo, 90s. rest

A2: Shoulder Width Bench Press, 10×6-8rep max, 31X0 tempo, 90s. rest

Strength Training Workout B:

Day 1, Lower Body:

A: Full Olympic Back Squats, 10×6-8rep max, 30X1 tempo, 150s. rest

Day 2, Upper Body:

A1: Dumbbell-Rows, 10×6-8rep max, 31X0 tempo, 60s. rest

A2: Arnie Flys, 10×6-8rep max, 22X0 tempo, 90s. rest

In professional periodization, you actually vary lighter phases with heavier versions.

I did this on purpose: in professional periodization, contrast is what it’s all about: keeping the body adjusting on a consistent basis. So first many sets with a fairly lighter load, and now we lower the repetition bracket, meaning we increase the load.

So although Jack’s 1st phase was absolute muscular mass, right now he will lift somewhat heavy. We are alternating Deadlifts with Squats, and Chin-Ups with Dumbbell Rows. That’s pretty awesome stuff! 

Also I kept this to the very basic principles: in the event you for example want to include additional tricep / bicep work or possibly 2-3 sets for your rotator cuff, it can be done at the conclusion of the workouts.

Outline:

You’re in a Upper-Lower Split Method, which means you train half of the body at the same time.

Say Monday you perform Workout A, Day 1, the Squats. Tuesday it’s Day 2, the Chin-Ups and Bench. Wednesday is off, then on Thursday you start up on Workout B, Day 1, the Deadlifts. Fri it’s the Dumbbell-Rows and Flys.

Unloading: Repeat for week two, then un-load in week 3: only four sets on all of it. Next week 4 is back again to 100% volume (ten sets everything) and the loads ought to be very well up by that time. The unloading will allow you the vitality to restore and super-compensate, i.e. grow larger and more powerful. Also it’s a built-in insurance against over-training.

Notation: Let’s look at the example of the Deadlift, it states 10×6-8rep max, 31X0 tempo, 150s. rest.

This means 10 sets of six to eight repetitions max, with a 31X0 tempo and 2.5 minutes rest between sets. 31X0 tempo means you bring down the bar for three seconds, take a second in the bottom to re-set your grip and healthy posture (plus it takes out the bounce, so it’s tougher and more efficient), the X-plode up (from the knees), repeat. 6-8 rep max indicates you should not manage to do more than eight repetitions with strict tempo and style, and if you can’t do at least six, it’s too heavy.

These weight lifting workouts can get you every little bit as strong as you will appear!  

I’ve been working hard here lately and now it’s time for some BBQ and Bluegrass Music! Some of my favorite bands are Rhonda Vincent and The Rage, Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver, Dale McCoury Band, Dan Tyminski and any band that has a great mandolin picker.

We have a local BBQ place that knows how to do BBQ Right! Sometimes we go over there on Friday orSaturday night, eat some good BBQ and listen to great bluegrassmusic. The other night the band played some Ralph Stanely, Bill Monroe and Flatt and Scruggs tunes. I asked my wife to please get me a copy of the Flatt and Scruggs old TV shows for my birthday. I think she will!

Speaking of BBQ, do you know how Natural Gas vs Propane vs Charcoal stacks up? I am thinking about getting a Grill and was wondering which one is best. Nothing like some good ribs basted in barbeque sauce fixed on an open grill on Saturday night! Almost forgot the beverage, NOT! A cool, refreshing cold drink of choice puts the final touch on the meal.

Oh, on a totally different subject, I am in the process of re-doing my home office and ran across a site that has a ton of good information on such topics as Outfitting a Home Office, Choosing An Office Copier and lots more. They also have a ton of office equipment and supplies to help with the make over. So this should make my new project go a lot faster which means I can get back to the BBQ and Bluegrass Music!
