Plan Details
The Transformation routine by dkclassic is a 7 day workout plan. It is an advanced level plan to achieve general fitness goals.
This routine is designed to pack on a lot of mass utilizing reps until failure as well as pyramids. To start each exercise you will pick a weight that provides enough resistance for the required reps. It is perfectly acceptable to utilize rest-pauses to complete the required reps so as to avoid injury. As you move up through the sets of each exercise you should be increasing the weight thus increasing the resistance; personal rule of thumb is to,increase by ten pounds for every new set. On the exercises that have 4 sets the final set should be until failure On leg day I chose to use the leg press as opposed to the squats or hack squats simply because I personally have bad knees; however, feel free to use squats as they are a great compound movement. Also to note on leg day, the adductor/abductor exercises at the end are a single set each to failure.
