6 Week Hercules Workout - Build A Powerful (Weeks 1-3)

Hercules: The Thracian Wars tells the incredible story of the infamous son of Zeus and the challenges he faced solidifying himself as a mythological legend. Replete with the skills for battle and mountains of muscle and strength to boot, Hercules was well-suited to exist in such a world of lore. A similar comparison can be made of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s prep for the role. No stranger to social media, The Rock took to Twitter and Instagram detailing, motivating and firing up his fans during his grueling 5am training sessions each and every day. “Focus” was a term often stressed keeping his fans on their toes as well as on the weights. You can’t help but get motivated to the nth degree by both Hercules and the real life Rock smashing the weights and some heads. If you’ve followed the first Hercules Workout at all you know what it takes to build real, brutal muscle, quickly. By now you’ve built an impressive physique of raw muscle and strength with that program. Now it’s time to continue on your saga with more mass in mind, but with a slight shift. Not only will you build more muscle mass with this Hercules-inspired workout, you will now challenge your mettle by refining that mass a bit accomplishing more muscularity and a brutal calorie burn. Weeks 1-3 For the first three weeks you will alternate between each exercise pairing. Not necessarily a superset per se but for example: You will do a set of one exercise, rest and then a set of the other exercise and then rest again. Keep alternating between the two moves and rest after each set and then move on to the next pairing.
