*** This is one of the basic
routines I learned when I began weight training.
All of my current routines have grown from this.
As i progressed with
my physique, so I have progressed with my training.
I switch things up constantly to shock
the muscle into response and new growth.
Specific current routines and
weights used along with some max lifts will be available
in the members
