Shortcut To Size: Phase 2, Week 6, Day 39

Shortcut To Size: Phase 2, Week 6, Day 39

Build bolder shoulders, stronger traps, and carved calves. Time to press, shrug, and raise the roof on your results.
by Jim Stoppani, Ph.D. May 10, 2012

Work your body from both ends. Build bigger shoulders for a better taper and the appearance of a smaller waist, and carve toned calves for increased power and a classic, athletic look.

Day 39: Shoulders/Traps/Calves

Terms You'll Need To Know

Rest-Pause: During weeks one and two of each phase of the program, you will do a rest-pause set as the last set of each exercise. To do this, reach muscle failure on the last set, then rack the weight and rest 15 seconds. Then continue the set until you reach muscle failure again.


Warm-up Sets: Perform 1-2 warm-up sets of 12-15 reps on the first exercise for all body parts, except abs and calves. Warm-up sets lubricate the joints, send blood to the working muscle, and prepare your body for a heavier load. After your warm-up sets, dive directly into the working sets below!

I'm still going strong. Really starting to see shifts in composition. Mostly maintaining weight...probably because I started a little chunky.

Week six and feeling better than ever! up 9lbs already, with a good bit of that being lean mass. I've been following the workouts with some minor variations here and there, plus eating a ton of good foods. can't wait to see what the next month does for me.

I've gained 10 pounds so far, and will hit the halfway mark on Sunday. My goal is another 10 or more pounds (I was extremely Skinny for my height and age).

I can see the differences in pictures, but I haven't noticed much differences after taking measurements.
