This is a classic 5x5 strength training program designed to add muscle and size. Each day will focus on different muscle groups, and you'll perform three exercises for each body part (other than triceps). **IMPORTANT** Remember to use a heavy enough weight that will enable you to complete no more than five repetitions per set (probably 80-85% of 1-RM). Day 1: Chest/Shoulder/Tricep using seven different exercises, 5x5. Day 2: Legs and Core using seven exercises, 5x5. Day 3: Back and Bicep using six exercises, 5x5. Each workout session should take between 60 and 80 minutes to complete. Stay Strong, MICHAEL WOOD, CSCS Jefit Team
