Whats going on everyone, its been a while since my last post but I am back to work now so you can expect weekly posts. I have to tell you they might not be as interesting in the offseason but at least it will give you some insight into the life of an IFBB Pro.
I have finally started my offseason prep for my next season. I still am unsure about which shows I plan on doing, I need to bring up my legs and that might take a little while. I have a few minor injuries that I have been dealing with and knee problems that have arisen from doing heavy sloppy movements. This year I am not focused on the weight but more focused on the rep speed and range of motion. I have been training with this new method for about a month now and I have really noticed soreness and good pain in places where I really need it. It doesn't look as good in the gym but if in the end it produces results than so be it.
I trained quads this morning about to go back for hams and calves. This was my quad workout:
Leg Press - 7 X 10-25
Hack Squat - 5 X 15
Vertical Leg Press - 4 X 12
Leg Extension - 4 X 15
I have been trying to add more volume and keep the reps a little higher when training my lower body. I feel my legs more and feel they get more work when the reps are on the higher end. I have never really trained this way in the past so it may be the key to unlocking the growth in my legs that I need.
Well that's all for now, I will hit you back soon.
Sacrifice Without Regret,
Fouad 'Hoss' Abiad
