Notes: This session is to focus on pure muscle development. All reps are done in full rage of motion, and under control. We are focusing on feeling the muscle work, and trying to avoid having the joints and tendons do majority of the lifting. When you try a routine like this, keep those all important things in your mind. Keep hydrated and making sure you’re having a proper intra-workout stack to drink while pounding away.
