chinups 3x failure
overhead press 4x10
barbell curls 3x10
bent knee sit-ups 3x failure
>>34917950
Looks good
>>34917874
I started out with it and actually did gain quite an amount of muscle.
>>34917950
3 times a week
>>34917950
would add some rear delt action but other then that it looks pretty good
>>34917950
>sit-ups
really?
test
dbol
primo
burgers
steaks
eggs
?
>>34918041
i mean, they're not mandatory i guess, maybe do some rows instead of sit-ups?
>>34918056
>sit ups = core
>rows = back
>do rows to hit your core
>>34917874
>not the platinum seven
>weighted dips
>weighted pullups
>bench press

Not even Rumbletoes has you diddying 3x a week you mong
>>34918134
well i didnt mean all seven each day dingus
although yes you can deadlift 3 times a week if you want. im not sure why /fit/ has a rule against it. squats are as taxing if not more so than deads with a greater chance of injury
>>34917874
I think it's cool. Might be hard to do all of those in one session. But if you get in enough food and rest before, why not. I just don't like the pulling to pushing ratio, but that might just be me because my back and shoulders are prone to injuries.
I'm actually doing something similar since this week, because I focus on boxing now and only train once a week, so I just put together the exercises most important to me.
squats 4x8
bench press 4x8
DB rows 2x8
pull-ups 2x failure
Joe DeFranco's shoulder shocker 2x
optional pump exercise if I still have something left in the tank (curls, shrugs, leg raises, push-ups, ...)
>>34917961
It actually has the presses done behind the neck originally.
>>34918134
>Not even Rumbletoes has you diddying 3x a week you mong
He does. Used to be all the way through but now is cut down a bit into the program
>>34918310
those dont hit the rear delts either
You need shoulder hyperextension not flexion
>>34918134
Sheiko does.
Power to the people has you deadlifting 6x a week btw
>>34918336
Thanks for the list of shitty routines.
>>34918084
This is shopped right
>>34918084
s-source?
>>34917874
im doing it now, but with rows instead of situps
I would really like to know in what BOOK he talks about this routine though. I have seen many "quotes" on forums and exercise websites but I cant find anywhere where Arnold himself says in one of his BOOKS that he used this routine or was even aware of it. I keep saying BOOK because I mean a BOOK. Or at least a video of the words coming out of his mouth.

Ahnuld confirmed for fitizen
>>34919140
did some searching and apparently it's from this:
http://www.amazon.com/Ironmans-Ultimate-Bodybuilding-Encyclopedia-Peter/dp/0809228114
how's your progress?
>>34919307
holy shit thanks I'm buying that now.
Ive only been on it 3 weeks but coming from a 3x5 strength routine I am out of breath doing sets of 10. Not even a fat fuck. Hell of a pump though good god.
My only concern is it has no deadlifting. I am planning on replacing squats on 1 day (wednesday) with deadlifts. 1x10
>>3491939
there's also this book:
http://atibook.ir/dl/en/Others/Sports/0684843749.the_education_of_a_bodybuilder_ocr_by_arnold_schwarzenegger.pdf
which is written by him, where he describes a very similar workout, but with more exercises, check page 180
>>34919422
look at that diet on p155
11 glasses of milk. Arnold fell for the GOMAD troll. what a n00b!
>>34918072
he's meme'ing, that a nod to the clean-barbell row trend of late
>>34917950
If I only did six exercises:
squats
clean and press
deadlift
pullups
bent over row
bench press
Have to ad calves somewhere though...
>>34919575
the clean is scary as fug
>>34917950
EVERY SINGLE DAY
>>34919733
not even arnold was that crazy
it's 3 times a week
>>34917874
Seems interesting. I might consider it once I'm done with SS (currently about 4 months in).
What do you guys think of it as a routine post-SS?
>>34920687
how's SS gainwise?
did you do the vanilla ss, or a modified version?
>>34921289
what's vanilla SS? I just do the one on the sticky really. Gains have been ok I guess. I'm still far from transitioning tho.
5'6 155lbs 19y/o
1x5 DL 95kg
3x5 Squat 102.5kg
3x5 Bench 55kg
5x3 Power Cleans 50kg
Been cutting since I started, so it's been tough trying to pack on weight on the barbell recently. Might cut for another 2 months before I bulk.
>>34917874
I tried his training split when I was 18 and basically died.
Thanks, Arnold.
>>34918228
>Joe DeFranco's shoulder shocker 2x
Cool, myself I do Moe Labaldo's arm wrecker of Doom x4
>>34924178
>not doing Jack Van Dicken's anus blasters 3x10
