Ron Arellano

King Kong is a no-compromise strength and size training system built for operators and bodybuilders who demand real results. Designed around proven set and rep schemes, King Kong uses strategic overload, calculated volume, and precision exercise selection to force growth and power. Every session is purposeful—each movement tested, each protocol refined. This is not a cookie-cutter plan. It’s a battle-tested blueprint for building mass and dominating performance. If you’re ready to train with intent, break plateaus, and look the part—King Kong delivers.
