Out of many amazing workout routines, here comes another savage Superset routine by the legendary coach Vince Gironda and we need to do it as it is prescribed (though I will add some similar variations).

The resistance to be used during the workout should be app. 85% of your 6RM.

It’s a 6 day/week routine, and extremely high volume for, primarily made for an advance athlete.

For each superset, you need to do 8 sets of 8 reps.

If you are an intermediate, start from 3-4 sets of 8 reps, and then progress one set at a time.

Here is the workout:

Day 1 & 4: Chest, Back & Delts
