What Workout Plan Worked Best For You?

I have good results with working each body part twice a week except legs with three exercises per body part. I change the lifts I do every week.

I do chest, triceps, and abs on Mondays, back and shoulders on Tuesdays, biceps, legs, and abs on Wednesdays. I will take Thursday off if I feel I need to and start back on Friday. I lift Saturday unless I workout Thursday then I will take Saturday and Sunday off.

The second time I work a body part in a week I try to do as many bodyweight exercises like pull-ups, push-ups, and dips as I can with high reps. I do cardio first thing in the morning for 20-30 minutes on an empty stomach. My favorite cardio is jump rope.

What Supplements Have Given You The Greatest Gains?

I take 125-150 grams of whey protein with water a day and use an Nitric Oxide pre-workout supplement like the NO Fury from Six Star.

I love the way clean eating and living makes me feel. Progress is determined by how hard and smart I train.
