Why This Workout Works
This workout is built around the principles of strength training. Center your program around the big compound lifts: squat, bench press, deadlift, and overhead press. Use heavy loads (80-95% 1RM) with low reps and full recovery between sets. Periodize intensity — not every session should be a max effort.
Training Parameters
- Rep Range: 3-6 reps — heavy enough for maximal force production
- Rest Periods: 3-5 minutes — full recovery between heavy sets
- Sets Per Exercise: 4-6 sets — optimized for strength
Hamstrings Training Tips
- *RDLs are the king of hamstring exercises — feel the stretch at the bottom and squeeze at the top.
- *Include both hip-hinge movements (RDLs) and knee-flexion movements (leg curls) for complete development.
- *Nordic curls build eccentric hamstring strength that prevents pulls and tears.
