Full Body A…
Lower body

- 2 × 8 @ 75
- Stop around 1 RIR
- Leg extension
- 2 × 8 @ 160
- Controlled eccentric; stop about 1 RIR
- Standing calf raise
- 2 × 10 @ 170
- Full pause in the stretched position
- Keep this bilateral
Chest and back — superset
- Reverse Incline Hammer Press
- 8-7-4 260-270-285
- 285 @ 1 RIR
- Close-grip neutral pulldown
- 2 × 8 @ 200
- Red Handle - Slightly underhand
- Drive elbows toward your hips without leaning far backward
Chest and back — superset
- Pec deck
- 2 × 12 @ 140
- Use a controlled stretch rather than chasing maximum depth
- Chest-supported
- 8–7–7 @ 290-320-345
- Since 340 was about 3 RIR
Shoulders
- Unilateral Cable lateral raise
- 3 × 12 @ 25
- Stop 1–2 reps before form deteriorates
Arms — superset
- Preacher Machine Curl
- 2 × 8 @ 100
- This changes the resistance profile from the EZ-bar curls in B
- Dip machine
- 2 × 8 @ 210
- Aim for 1–2 RIR
AVG HR - 116 BPM
MAX HR - 162 BPM
The main changes from B are:
- No leg press, giving your back and hips a break from loaded hip/knee flexion.
- Neutral pulldowns replace sternum pull-ups.
- Pec deck replaces the low-to-high fly.
- Lateral delts replace the rear-delt/upright-row emphasis.
- Machine/preacher curls replace EZ-bar curls.
- No overhead extension, because B already gives your triceps considerable work through pressing, extensions, and dips.
