Quick Morning Workouts
by Tom Mack

Having to deal with all the activities of the day and still find time
to fit in a killer workout is a constant challenge. Keep in mind that
it does take discipline to work out early in the morning, but if you
stick with you get used to it.

Monday:
Chest,
bench press - 3 sets, 8-12 reps (bar to upper chest near the neck
line is for bodybuilding, bar lower in the chest is for power lifting)
incline press - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
dips - 3 sets, 10 reps (wide grip)

Shoulders,
military press - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
front dumbbell raise - 2 sets, 8-12 reps
lateral dumbbell raise - 2 sets, 8-12 reps
upright rows - 1 set, to failure

Triceps,
french press - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
tricep pushdown - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
dips - 1 set to failure ( close grip, emphasize the triceps)
In between sets work your abs


Tuesday:
Legs,
front squats - 2 sets, 8-12 reps
squats - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
deadlift - 3 sets, 8-12 reps (ankles line up with smooth part
of the bar)
leg extension - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
leg curls - 3 sets, 8-12 reps (super set with leg extension)
calves - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
in between sets work your abs

Wednesday:
Back,
pull ups - 5 sets, 10 reps
barbell rows - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
pull downs 1 set, to failure

Biceps,
seated dumbbell curls - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
straight barbell curls - 3 sets, 8-12 reps
working abs in between sets


Thursday:
OFF

Friday:
Power routine:

power cleans - 6sets, 4-6 reps
jump shrug - 3 sets, 10 reps
box jump - 2-3 sets, 10-20 reps
work abs in between sets

This routine can be completed in an hour. I increase the weight after I
can perform 10-12 reps. On days where I feel strong, I won't count the
reps but go to failure.

Good Luck
