We
all know what a plateau is, but for giggles I wanted to provide the definition, just to make sure that we are all on the same page.
One dictionary defined plateau as a situation where something has stalled that was progressing forward previously. Another dictionary defines it as a level or period of relative stability, or relatively little change.
By splitting my leg workout into two sessions, I can put more focus on creating a better set of wheels. One workout focuses primarily on hamstrings and calves, while workout number two focuses on quads. With any leg day, I start out with at least ten minutes of cardio to warm up. For quad day I really prefer the stair climber as my method of cardio. As with any other body part, I constantly try new machines, movements, or foot placement to further refine my workout, but here is what a current quad day looks like for me.
Here's another high rep workout for you. If you're looking for a workout to destroy your back and give you wings then this is the workout for you! This is not for the novice lifter. Focus on your form, squeeze and feel each rep. Don't just throw the weight around. Connect with me on Facebook!

In this and the subsequent article I want to share additional details about my modifications on Eric Broser’s excellent ‘Power/Rep Range/Shock’ (aka P/RR/S) system.
Continuing last month’s article, I will now start to look at the different types of cardio which are usually implemented into a program to effectively burn body fat.
My love for the gym started as a result of my desire to improve my basketball game. Before becoming a “gym rat,” I mainly went to the gym do squats so that (in my mind) I could improve my vertical.
It is something that plays a large role in the lives of almost every competitor. Cardio is required by 95% of physique athletes to go from lean to stage lean.
