  • Seated or Standing Calf Raises - 3 sets X 8-12 reps



Saturday and Sunday - OFF Days

Perform LI cardio on these days if you wish.

Each week, try to make small increases in the weight you lifted in the previous week.

Look over your lifts from the prior week in your workout journal and try to beat those numbers.

Over time, these small increases will add up and before you know it you may have added hundreds of pounds to a lift.

The stronger you get... the more you will grow, IF you keep your weight lifting diet in line with your goals.

Remember that this process is not a race.

It is a marathon, so to speak.  You won't add 50lbs of muscle over night.
