Workout Plan For December:
Holiday Maintenance!

By: Todd Opheim

So, the holidays are here, and our already hectic schedules are even more jam packed. We've been working to put on muscle the last 11 months of the year and at the very best we hope to maintain that muscle until the holidays have passed.

This program is for the person who has a very limited amount of time, but is looking to maintain with minimal work. In fact, some experts may argue that one might gain significant lean mass on this program due to increased rest and recovery. Optimally, this program would be performed two times per week with maximum intensity. It encompasses the whole body.

After your schedule calms down, you can return to a traditional 2, 3 or 4 day split. Happy Holidays!

Note: 2 warmup + 3 work sets - 10,8,6 means that you should do 2 quick warmup sets, then 3 hard sets to failure. The first work set should have 10 reps, the second 8, and the third should have 6 reps. You should be able to do no more than 6 reps so choose the weight which works best for you.
