Arnold S Training Routine
trained with Arnold this is e xactly how they trained chest and back:
SupersetsBench press and pull ups 4-5 sets of each (for bench 10,8,6,2,1,maybe
another si ngle, then drop to 8) Incline bench and seated cable rows 4-5 sets of
each Dumbbell flies and One-arm cable rows 4-5 sets of each Would sometimes end
with: Cable crossovers and machine pullovers Finish with situps (just bodyweight,
100-200 reps of situps or leg raises) took about one hour. And this is the routine
Arnold did as a 260lb world-class bodybuilder... not tal king about his formative
years or anything. It's extremely similar to an ordinar y bodybuilding, if anything
he did much less than modern bodybuilders, though yo u have to keep in mind he
always trained every muscle 2-3 times a week. ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER'S CHEST/BACK
