You can use 101 Workouts in a number of
different ways. For example:
1) Create an all-new bodypart training
split based on your goals and your
situation. For example, if you only
can work out at home:
Monday: Chest (p. 14) & Triceps (p. 94)
Tuesday: Legs (p. 62)
Wednesday: Off
Thursday: Back (p. 46) & Biceps (p. 78)
Friday: Shoulders (p. 30) & Abs (p. 110)
2) Introduce some variety into your
training programme, or focus on a
particular bodypart that needs attention.
Sometimes, the best way to kick yourself
into gear and beat boredom is to try
something new. If it's back day, turn to
the back chapter on page 42 and choose
one of the 13 workouts you'll find there,
just for today. Or maybe your delts just
aren't growing, so give them a nudge with
the special shock routine on page 40.
3) Choose one of the full-body routines,
starting on page 132, and do it 1-3 times
per week. Or pick an upper-body workout
from Chapter 8 and a leg workout from
Chapter 4 and do each 1-2 times per week
(for example, Monday and Thursday do
the upper-body routine, and Tuesday and
Friday perform the legs routine). Just like
that, you're covered!
4) Perhaps you don't want to overhaul
your whole training routine but only
tweak it a little. In that case, try some
new exercises. With almost 200 fully
illustrated moves in this guide, you
can trade out an exercise or two in your
current workout. Introducing variety into
your routine is key to growth, whether
in the form of new exercises, set and
reps schemes, or training techniques.
You'll find plenty of new ideas on all those fronts in
101 Workouts.
All told, there are years' worth of workouts in this
book. I firmly believe it could become the most valuable
fitness resource you've ever owned
