Introduction
Before we get started I need to ask you for one favor. Please, please, please read
the main Muscle Gaining Secrets e-book before beginning the workouts. You need to
have a full understanding of how the body works and why before you begin the
workouts. If you do that you will get much more out of them; trust me. I know
everyone is anxious to jump right into the program but there is so much more to
building muscle than simply performing the exercises, sets and reps I have listed
here for you. By reading the e-book before starting the program you will be
guaranteeing your success. Just doing the workouts without having read the book
will be doing yourself a huge disservice and your results will be less than optimal.

What workout should I start with?
If you have trained for less than three months then you should start with
Phase 1 of the MGS Beginner Program.

If you have been training properly for 3-6 months, then start with Phase 2 of
the MGS Beginner Program.

If you have been training properly for 6-9 months, then start with Phase 3 of
the Beginner Program.

If you have been training properly for 9-12 months, then you could either
start with Phase 3 of the Beginner Program or Phase 1 of the Intermediate
Program.

If you have been training properly, for more than 12 months you should
start with the Intermediate Program, work your way through and then finish
with the Advanced Program.

Remember that the name of the game is progressive overload. You must train like an
uncaged beast every time you set foot in the gym and have one goal in mind with a
laser sharp focus on achieving it. That goal is to beat last workouts performance. You
have to improve upon what you did last time or your workout will be a complete
waste of time. Its you versus the training log and you must do all you can to ensure
that you emerge victorious. The last thing you want to do is leave the gym as a
loser, defeated. This must be prevented at all costs. You absolutely have to do more
reps or more weight than last time or you have failed to do anything to make the
body grow.

If you can not go up you are either not eating enough, not sleeping enough, partying
too much or are too stressed out. Overtraining is not a likely option since I have

designed the workouts to ensure against it. Something else is wrong, though, and
you need to address it and fix it immediately if you want to get bigger and achieve
your goals.

Do not over think or over analyze things; simply add weight to the bar or do more
reps week after week, eat like a horse, get lots of rest and you will soon be one of
the biggest, if not THE biggest, guys in your gym.

How do I know how many reps to do each week? What does it mean
when you say 5-8 reps?
Start each workout with the lower end of the rep range. So if the rep range is 5-8
you would pick a weight you can do for five reps on week one. On week two stick
with the same weight and get more reps with it. Once you can get eight reps with
that weight, be it on week two or week four, it is time to increase the weight by five
to ten pounds. Your goal should be to add weight as often as possible so do
whatever you can to get to eight reps as quickly as possible.

What does it mean when the exercises have the same number but a
different letter next to them?
When exercises have the same number but a different letter, it means that you are
supposed to alternate those two exercises back and forth. For example if 1a) is a
bench press and 1b) is a 1 arm dumbbell row you would do one set of bench
presses, rest two minutes and then do a set of 1 arm dumbbell rows. After the rows
you would again rest two minutes before going back to do your second set of bench
presses.

If an exercise just has a number with no letter next to it that simply means that you
do two straight sets of the exercise with the prescribed rest period between sets.

How do I fill in the training log sheets?
The standard, widely accepted formula for recording workout stats is sets times reps.
Therefore if you lifted 185 pounds for six reps on your first set and 135 pounds for
five reps on your second set, you would write 185x6 in the Set 1 column and 185x5
in the Set 2 column. Some of the sheets have three sets listed because a few of the
calf exercises in the Intermediate Phase have three sets each.

Why are there no ab exercises included?
Big compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, pushups and military presses train
your abs far better than any kind of direct abdominal work like crunches or sit ups
ever could. Believe me, your abs will get a great workout and awesome development

from doing the exercises in the program. Not only that, but regularly doing tons of
loaded spinal flexion exercises like sit ups and crunches can be quite dangerous and
injurious for many people. Im sure that a lifetime of back pain is not something that
you need or want. And finally, remember that the abs can only be seen when your
body-fat is low enough and the only way to get it there is with proper diet and
energy system/ cardio training. All the sit ups and crunches in the world will do
absolutely nothing to improve your abdominal development but might cut into your
recovery ability and slow down your rate of muscle growth.

Can I add a few extra sets of (curls, calves, etc) at the end if I still
feel good and have lots of energy left?
Whatever you do, please do not alter the workouts in any way, shape or form
whatsoever. They are designed to deliver maximum results in minimum time and to
prevent overtraining. If you think, Ah, what the hell, Ill just add in an extra set of
biceps and triceps at the end, you will be heading down a slippery slope and I can
not be held responsible for your lack of progress or results. Stick with the program
and follow the exact exercises, sets, reps and rest periods as I have laid them out for
you. Be sure to watch the clock so that you are sure to adhere to the proper rest
periods and not exceed your maximum workout time. Carrying a stopwatch with you
isnt a necessity but is recommended.

Enough talking. You now know all you need to know to get big and strong. The rest
is up to you. Its time to get fired up, attack these workouts with a vengeance and
get huge!

Good luck.
