The Best Strength Training Workout for Men

Ok guys summer is coming and you need to get your vanity muscles jump started so you look buff and ready to go when it is t-shirt time. Let me be your personal trainer and help you achieve your buffness.

So what are your vanity muscles and why are they so important to make sure you get them jacked up in time for summer? When you first walk up to a male what is the first thing you might notice if they have a t-shirt on?

Well you might notice if they have tooth picks for arms and you would definitely notice if they had a big set of guns (arms) and were locked and loaded (pumped).

You would probably notice if they had a muscular chest and shoulders also versus a skinny set of shoulders and no meat on their chest.

There is no time to waste because when you put that t-shirt on you want your arms to be busting out of the sleeve and your chest sticking out like someone attached slabs of meat to your ribs.

I am going to suggest that your workout is scheduled around these specific muscles, chest, shoulders, biceps, triceps, Traps and calves.

You want to include your traps and calves in your vanity workout because your traps will respond quickly and they will help to show the musculature and depth in your shoulder muscles.

You want to train your calves because everyone looks great when they have a pair of shorts on and they are sporting a toned muscular set of calves. Now you will want to work your other muscles also but your main focus right now is to get your vanity muscles a bit more toned and muscular.

Training all of these muscles in one workout will be way too much so you need to break them into two workouts. Then you will want to have your third workout include all of the other muscle groups we aren’t as concerned about right now.

Those muscles you will just want to exercise hard enough just to keep them toned and active. You are not concerned about them growing right now. It is all about the vanity muscles right now. I am going to suggest you workout your chest triceps and calves in one workout and then your traps shoulders and biceps on the other.

What you need to do is focus on moderate to heavy weight and for whatever your time frame is for working your vanity muscles try your best to increase your work out weight on every exercise.

Something else I suggest you do is make sure you consume a gram and a half of protein per pound of your lean body weight every day during your vanity muscle training marathon.

You might want to invest in some creatine also to help wih energy levels and giving you a bigger better pump in your muscles.

For workout frequency I recommend you do three days on and one day off. So on day one you work your chest triceps and calves. On day two you work your traps, shoulders and biceps.

On day three you work your back thighs and core. On day four you rest. The exercises, repetitions and sets you should be doing are three sets of each exercise and two exercises per muscle.

Increasing the weight with each set. Your repetition range should be 8 to 12. If you can do more than 12 reps then you need to increase the weight. If you cannot do 8 reps with correct form then the weight is too heavy.

Exercises I recommend to choose from for each muscle are chest – push ups, dips, dumbbell flyes, dumbbell bench press, barbell bench press. Shoulders – Barbell pull-up, military press, dumbbell press, dumbbell laterals.

Traps – barbell shrug, dumbbell shrug with palms facing each other. Biceps – barbell curls, alternating dumbbell curls, hammer curls, reverse curls. Triceps – skull crushers, bench dips, over head extension, close grip bench. Calves – standing calve raise, seated calve raise, jumping on the spot. One leg calve raise.

Well you now have the tools to get yourself all buffed up in no time at all. Consistency is key with whatever you do when it comes to having great success when working out so make sure you hit the gym and stick with it and in no time at all you will be busting out of those sleeves in your t-shirt.

The ladies will notice you and the men will be jealous of your big guns and puffy chest. Although they won’t admit it they will be wondering how you got to be so buff so quick.

Well you can tell them if they ask or you can stick your chest out flex your arms and just be glad you put the time in to work your vanity muscles.
