Notes From Matt

Busy first day in Vegas. Dallas and I while still used to east coast time got up at 5am and headed over to city athletic for a very light cardio session and posing since it was not light yet. After we made our first grocery store run to gather foods for the day. I am going to be doing a full blog on Dallas peak but for now we a literally taking things a few hours at a time so I cannot lay out a full plan as of yet.

Notes From Matt

Yesterday was our last day in boca. We spent the morning getting haircuts, training and packing for our early evening flight to vegas. The biggest keys to a successful travel day for a bodybuilding event is to arrive early, wear tight fighting clothes or compression type apparel under your clothes and continue to keep water going through the flight. These will help minimize stress and keep water flushing which is a concern this close to a show. 

We trained shoulders at Project Flex yesterday, the entire workout was filmed so be sure to check that out on redcon1.com

Be sure to following along today on IG and Snapchat as we document the training day!

Cardio 

Hard posing rounds 

Training – Arms / Forearms /  Calves 

We are continuing to train biceps first since they are getting less secondary work than triceps. We just hit Chest yesterday so triceps were hit as a secondary muscle. We are still training triceps hard but just emphasizing biceps first within the workout. 
With the bicep movements the goal is to get full supination of the bicep so aim to have your pinky finger finish at peak contraction towards the outside of the delt cap. 

Exercise 1 – Straight sets 

Standing Alternating DB Curl 

Working up to 3 hard sets at the same weight within the 10-15 rep range 

Exercise 2 – straight sets 

Incline Supinated Bicep Curl 

We used a slight incline here with the goal of really keeping shoulders pinned back against the pad. 

On these reps we cut out all momentum and did both full ROM reps as well as partials out of the stretched position. 

3 working sets in the 10-12 rep range plus 3-5 partials. 

Exercise 3 – Straight sets 

Machine Single Arm Machine

Working full stretch through peak contraction on each rep + 3 forced partials on each side. 

3 working sets in the 10-12 rep range plus 3 forced reps.

Exercise 4 – Straight sets 

DB Single Arm Curl on Standing Preacher Machine 

Again here we are trying to fully lengthen the bicep so an easy way to do this is to contract your tricep in the fully extended position. 

2 sets of 15 on each arm 

Triceps

Exercise 1 – Straight sets 

Incline Skull Crusher 

Pyramid up in weight, all sets performed to failure around the ranges listed. 

30/25/20/15 

Exercise 2 – straight sets 

Single Arm Alternating DB Overhead Ext 

Going through a full stretch / Pause / Drive into 3/4 through range of motion. 

3 working sets in the 10-12 rep range plus 3-5 partials. 

Exercise 3 – Rope Tri-Sets 

Bending over at 45 Degree – Rope Extension starting with rope at forehead, splitting rope ends at bottom. No body movement here

INTO 

Traditional Standing Rope Extension splitting rope at full extension while keeping arms into sides throughout 

INTO 

Standing High Pulley overhead Extension with back towards stack. Keep rope ends together here. 

All three movements done to failure of FULL REPS only at same weight

3 Rounds 

Exercise 4 – Straight sets 

Cable Single Arm Reverse Extension 

2 sets of 15 on each arm 

Forearms Circuit 

Reverse Cambered Barbell Curl x 15 

Barbell Behind The Back Forearm curl x 15 

Hammer DB Curl with hands slightly pronated x 15 

3 Rounds

Notes From Matt

The plan for the next 6 days or so is to allow Dallas to naturally keep coming down in weight and making minor adjustments to the diet daily as needed. I am trying to avoid massive drops as well as spikes in weight via high refeeds and just keep his body in a place where everything is as consistent as possible. We are doing posing in the morning and posing following training after his post training meal digests. This allows me two opportunities

Notes From Matt

We ended up calling an audible yesterday and training shoulders and saving back for today. Back was still a bit sore from last week so we wanted to give it an extra day to rest. So what you are seeing below is the shoulder workout that we did yesterday. The back workout posted yesterday is what we will be doing today. Today we will also be training with Massive Joe who is a guest of Redcon1 today coming from Australia!

Cardio 

20 min AM 

Training – Shoulders 

Exercise 1 – Superset 

Standing Lateral Raises INTO Standing Wide grip Upright row

This is a great superset for the medial delts 

Going as heavy as possible within the realm that it is a superset. 

12 reps on each 3 rounds

Exercise 2 – Superset 

Incline Camber Bar Supinated Front Raise using a close grip INTO Incline Camber Bar Pronated Front raise with a wide grip 

12 reps on each and then doing top half partials to failure keeping tension primarily on the working muscle being primarily the front deltoid. 

Exercise 3 – Straight sets 

Seated Belt driven Shoulder press. 

Here we did as many full reps as possible followed by as many bottom half partials as we can do as long as we could get half way through the ROM. 

3 working sets around 15-25 reps per set with full reps as well as added partials 

Exercise 4 – Straight sets 

Seated Reverse Pec Deck 

Holding peak contraction on each rep. 

3×12-15 + stretch partials on each rep 

Exercise 5 – Straight sets 

Pronated Lateral Raises 

Here you are going to keep your palms facing back throughout. This done correctly is a shorter range of motion, Start with the DB’s ends on your glutes and drive laterally from that position. You will realistically only be able to get about halfway up before other muscles take over. 

Exercise 6 – Superset 

Bi lateral Hammer Shrugs x 15 

INTO 

Seated Low Row pulling high for mid trap emphasis rope rows x 15 

Finished up with 6 sets of ab work we are alternating ab and calves training every day.

Cardio

30 min daily on stairs

Training Shoulders 

Machine Lateral Raises – Used primarily as a warm up
***we will return to this later in training

Exercise 2 – DB Raise modified muscle rounds ( Leo coasta method)

The goal here is to complete 6 sets of 10 at the same weight with 15 second breaks between each attempt. You really have to be locked in mentally here in order for this to be effective as you do not want your rep speed to slow down.

This is a great way to accomplish a lot of work and blood volume in a short amount of time when energy stores are low. Not for the faint of heart or those who have a weak stomach!

Exercise 3 – Seated behind the head Military Press

Favorite Movement of Dallas, he genetically has good shoulders but this has been a primary movement in his arsenal for a long time.

Work up to one max effort set at 315 all out

Second set do a double drop from 315 – 225 – 135 max reps at each set. With 135 doing Bottom half partials only until failure.

2 true working sets.

 

Exercise 4 -Super Set

DB Upright Row
INTO
DB Neutral Grip Front raise both arms at same time.

Work on killing all momentum and really moving the weight through the medial delt on upright rows and front delts on the front raises.

10-12 reps each

Exercise 5 – Tri Set

Rear Delt Peck Deck
INTO
DB Side shrugs from hip
INTO
Smith Barbell Shrugs from front.
3 rounds aiming for 12-15 reps on each

Exercise 6 – Machine Lateral Raise

1 strip set

 

Starting at a max weight for 10 reps and doing a drop set at as many weights as possible aiming to get 10-8 reps on each for and run the entire stack in this manner dropping 1-2 plates per time.

Be sure to following along today on IG and Snapchat as we document the training day!
