Bodybuilding Basics is a program designed for beginner/intermediate lifters who want to get jacked. This program simplifies advanced bodybuilding techniques to maximize hypertrophy while minimizing undo joint stress. Exercises have been carefully selected and paired in complexes to increase the density of training (there's your cardio) and get you out of the gym quickly so you can enjoy the results. If you are serious about transforming your body and feeling sexy naked, your high school football workouts aren’t gonna cut it. Stop wearing a t-shirt in the pool and get yourself BODYBUILDING BASICS.
