DEFINITIONS & TIPS

MONSTER SETS: Monster sets are back to back sets using exercises that target opposing mus-
cle groups
MONSTER REPS: Use the same weight that allows you to do the 8 reps on the last set. After
completing 8 reps, rest 10 seconds and do another set till failure.
REST TIMES BETWEEN SETS: Every phase has specifc rest times. I encourage you to use
a stopwatch to track the amount of rest between every set. This will ensure your mus-
cles are constantly pumped and that you have high intensity workouts every time to keep your
muscles growing.
TILL FAILURE: This means do the maximum number of repetitions of an exercise until your
muscles fail, or cant do anymore.
AMOUNT OF WEIGHT TO USE: Use the heaviest weight possible to reach the designated amount
of reps. If your goal is to complete 8 reps, then the weight you use must have you reach failure
at the 8th rep.

* DB stands for Dumbbell
* BB stands for Barbell

* The last set of every exercise are performed with Monster Reps.
* Warmups listed are only used as a reference, and may be different in the actual footage.

straight and your legs spaced using a shoulder width or narrower stance. The knees should be
slightly bent. This is your starting position. Keeping the knees stationary, lower the dumbbells to

back at the starting position.

Take hold of a dumbbell in each hand. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, abdominals engaged
and back straight. Hold the dumbbells directly above each shoulder, with your elbows pointing
out to the sides. Bend your knees and lower your hips slightly back and down, similar to the
motion of sitting in a chair. Use your abdominal muscles to control the descent rather than just
dropping down, which can throw your form of. Stop lowering when your thighs are parallel to
the foor. Once your thighs are parallel to the foor, take a second squat even deeper. Creating a
double pumping motion. Explode back up by jumping slightly of the ground. Land in the squat-
ted position. Take your second dipped squat and explode up again.
DOUBLE PUMP JUMPING SQUATS REPS 15/12/8/8
Pick up and place a loaded barbell across the back of your shoulders. Stand straight up, with
your feet shoulder-width apart, but with one stationed about a foot and a half in front of the
other. Your back leg should stand directly under your body and your forward knee should sit at
a ninety degree angle. Jump up of the ground slightly, and quickly switch the position of your
feet in mid-air. Keep your torso straight, now and throughout the whole movement. Land in the
mirror-image of your original position - your forward leg bent at ninety degrees at the knee and
hip, and your back leg directly underneath your body. Bend your knees to absorb the impact -
but keep your feet and knees facing straight forward. Jump back of the ground, switching your
feet to your original position.

Grab just one dumbbell. Lie on your back, fat on the foor. To work the right side, dig the heel
into the foor or elevated surface. Place the dumbbell across your pelvis on the front of your
hips. Lift your hips slightly as you bring the left leg straight up, heel facing the ceiling. Now thrust
the hip up, squeezing the glutes as you push the left heel toward the ceiling. Come back to the
starting position. Thats one rep.
