The Maniac's Spring Break Workout for Men: Stage 3




If you are looking the Women’s Workout

Congratulations! You have made it to the 3rd and final stage of The Maniac’s Spring Break Workout! The workout has been designed to really give you that big “pump” to bring out your muscle in your newly sculpted swim suit body. You will find a lot of the same movements in this routine as you would in a precontest type bodybuilding routine, insuring to bring out the best in your muscles.

INSTRUCTIONS: All exercises will be performed in a superset fashion. You will perform one exercise and immediately perform the next exercise, then rest for 60 seconds. You will then repeat the superset the prescribed amount of sets. Each superset has been paired accordingly. You will also notice I have put drop sets into the routine. To do a drop set you will select a heavier weight you will be able to perform the exercise with for around 7 reps. You will use this weight until failure, immediately select a lower weight, use this till failure, then select a lower and final weight to use till failure. For the abdominal exercises you will perform all of them in a row, rest one minute, then repeat the circuit two more times.
