On the other hand he is not 100% natural because he uses small cycles of winny before the contests……but he has great genetics… over there in Nicaragua most trainers doest have money to buy any supplements and sometimes its hard for them to buy enough food and if he wins this contest he will win a motorcycle and some supplements……Anyway he is a great guy….check the wings at 158 (4-weeks out)....you dont have to be heavy to look huge

Nice delts and conditioning. Man if he was just pulling those arms back for the rear dbl bi - nice shot.

Now that I have been trying this twice a week volume, I ofcourse have been doing one session with going to failure, the second in the week not going past 75%. I guess you could say it really varies.
For example, if you are interested.. my day 1 is chest/tri's. I begin my workouts with a heavy compound movement like the BB or DB flat/incline bench and stick to 4-5 sets, 5-8reps. Then throughout the rest of this day as I move onto other exercises if they are compound I stick with this, working to failure unless I am doing an isolation movement then its higher reps lower sets. Then tri's I will hit with a couple exercies, sticking with the high reps making sure to get a nice burn but not failure. Then switching this up and doing the opposite with the opposite muscle groups during my second session of the week.
Anyways, I was bored and figured I would toss it out there that this is the way I have been doing things as of late. My biggest concern honestly is trying to get my very much so trailing arms to catch up with the rest of my body. I know it sounds like the typical beach boy body wannabe thing, but arms are really what lack on my body since I have such long arms, to go with my long legs. Chest has never been a big issue. Too bad I don't have your tri's that I remember you speaking of growing so quickly!!

Exactly bro!! your are what Coach Thibadeau call Torso Guy and I am what he call a Limb guy jajajaj….its just the way we were put together !!! …I have a friend that is a bodybuilder that is a typical torso guy….with huge chest and back…and he has the same problem that you have….but man I just wish I had his chest jajajaj…..

This is his training split… this may help you because both are pursuing the same goal….HUGE ARMS!!

Day 1: Bis, Tris , Delts (Heavy Day)
Day 2: Chest , Back ( only 2 Exe – Maintenance work)
Day 3 : Bis, Tris, Delts (Hypertropy Day)
Day4: Off ( only 2 Exe – Maintenance work)
Day 5: Bis, Tris, Delts (Endurance/ Recovery day)
Day6: Legs
Day 7: off

He is doing this for 4-6 weeks and then he rest (to re-start the system) for 2-3 weeks and then he go back to the arm workout again for another 4-6 weeks…and try to beat previous PR

Hope this helps somehow bro!

Oh man thats hardcore. But it sounds fun! hahaa and like it might actually work. You will really have to update me on how this goes for him, if he feels it works I think I may just try it, I might just try it regardless tho in the future here. I've saved the workout in my BB'ing file like everything else so we shall have to see. By the way, you couldn't be more right about the torso/limb guy thing, my back is best feature I have. Also, I didnt mean to delete my post up there above, went to edit something and deleted it and then just lost it. Glad you were able to quote it first tho. Thanks again cisco, always there for some helpful tips !

No problem bro…. we are here to help each other!! On the other hand if you are going to try that workout i will advise you to decrease your weights before you start and gradually increase them till you reach your normal weights. This will ensure that your muscles and tendons are adjusting to the new requirements. I would use 60% on the first week, 70% on the second, 80-85% on your 3rd and 95%-100% "of your normal 5 or 10 rep max" on your 4th. Especially when working heavy on day 1. If you don’t follow this protocol you may end up injuring yourself…..so be carefull and DON’T TRAIN TILL FAILURE! I know its going to be hard for you but you don’t lose nothing by trying….you can only win

just thought id drop by and say im finding training bodyparts two times a week absolutely awesome. At first your right the aching is a bit of a problem but as my body is getting used to this type of training its becoming less of an issue. i think its really starting to help my chest out aswell because its always been my big week point but hopefully i can turn into somewhat of a strong point. Back is also growing nicely as well. Overall, really enjoying how its going!!

Hows your progress, you back bulking yet??
