All the info I could find was his split;
Day1 : Chest, shoulders, triceps
Day2 : Quads, hams, calves
Day3 : Back, Biceps
Repeat and Day7 off. So each body part was trained 2x per week.
As for sets per exercise, and number of exercises per body part, and rep ranges? I don't know.

The thing about finding info on Pro workouts, splits, etc, is that they will change frequently. They have to! You can't do the exact same workout for more than a few weeks or months and expect to see the same results.
So whatever split he's got written up there, he probably used for a while, then changed it up a bit.
His "training style" is something you can pick up by watching his vids. Seems to me he just uses heavy weights, high volume and decent form. Sticks to the basics. The best way to train in my opinion.

Respectfully disagree.
Dorian & Ronnie especially, are notorious for keeping the same workout/split but increasing the weight.
Kevin was much the same way but after he got injured he had to cut back on the weight and add more volume.
Jay Cutler seems to have trained the same way for years as-well. The truth is if you're taking what they're taking, and you continue to stress your muscle you're going to grow. This is why magazines like Flex workouts are useless. Because they just don't work for natural people.
Bodybuilders seem to be very out of touch with what actually works for the normal genetic body. Not all...but definitely the majority. Either that or what's published about their workouts is completely fabricated.
For instance, David Henry got a call for his workout to be published in a magazine. He told them about doggcrapp and how Dante has him train. The magazine didn't want to publish it so they asked him to make something up. As a pro you have to pay the bills somehow even if it isnt true. Which seems to be a large portion of the media covering bodybuilding. It's like WWE, fun to watch but it just isn't what's really happening.
Anyway, back to Ronnie Coleman's workout. It's covered in all his dvd's. Just thought this article was interesting.

Another maxim Ronnie proves with his training program is "Keep It Simple, Stupid!" Other bodybuilders are constantly searching for better ways to train, and that?s fine, but in doing so there is certainly a lot of wasted or misdirected effort. Ronnie found what works for him, and stuck with it, never doubting himself or feeling the need to hire a trainer to push him in the gym and dream up innovative new angles and exercises to maintain his interest.
