What muscles do we work in this system?
I have come to the conclusion that to make sure you are hitting EVERY muscle, you need to make sure you are doing exercises for these 11 muscles or muscle groups. This covers the whole body. There is nothing left undone.
We concentrate on hitting all of these body parts every single workout day, which for most trainees will be 4, 5, or 6 days per week.
- Back/lats
- Chest
- Deltoids (shoulders)
- Quads (legs)
- Glutes/hamstrings/low back (posterior chain)
- Biceps
- Triceps
- Calves
- Abs (rectus abdominis) (this is your 6-pack muscles)
- Obliques (all the muscles that twist your core, or move your core at angles)
- Traps (the muscles that shrug your shoulders)
When you first start you will go very light. And we are only doing ONE set of each exercise; that’s it! That’s why you can breeze through the workout without dreading getting started. We don’t even need to take time to warm up. What we are looking to do is “build the habit”, so we have to keep things easy and not start to build up “workout avoidance” which is what happens when you push too hard, too fast. I will personally guide you through all this; no worries!
