My training changes fro build season to contest prep.
I have been pyramid training with a little bit of Ballistic training. Right now I usually aim around 12, 10,8,6,4 rep ranges increasing wt .

In about 3 weeks I'll change up to high reps and add dropsets, 4 and 1's, supersets, 21's etc. with little rest.
Right now I squat 225 for 3 and leg press 8 plates each side and our sled weighs 115 lbs. (so about 475lbs)

I like to pre exhaust with leg extensions to get the blood pumping

I have seen that heavy weights dont work for me when training legs, my joints get sore. I do leg presses, and always do 15-20 reps, with around 6 plates aside, never more than 7 plates a side. With squats, i never go heavier than 315 and focus more on ROM, always 10-12 reps. Pre exhaust with leg extensions. Also occassionally do hacks for 10-12 reps, never more than 2 plates a side or i do front hacks, never more than 4 plates a side for 10-15 reps. With legs i find that reps beat heavy weight. My days of squatting 405 are over. My legs are growing so fast from training this way, i love training legs these days!

I just started lifting jan 2011 so I'm not too beat up yet! gotta do what works for you!

What do your shoulder workouts generally consist of?

[LaurieSchnelle]

everything you can think of!! I really bomb side lateral raises. i feel they help with my roundness. upright rows. DB press, military press, front raise, Arnold press etc etc...........

Motivation abs: it's almost shreddin time

*I will be able to say that I pushed myself harder, that I kept going when I felt like stopping, and that I gave that extra effort when I felt like collapsing..It’s that last burst of commitment that separates the champions from 2nd place.

*Every moment is a victory: Each step on the treadmill. Each set. Each rep. Each bite of food. Each and every thing I do has a purpose. The food nourishes my body. The training invigorates my spirit. The weights stimulate my muscles. The rest gives me a chance to rebuild.
