Here’s a sample

muscle:

3 x 6 reps

cable) – 3 x 6 reps

Completely
optional (fat
burning
conditioning
circuit)
I’ve also added a
simple fat burning
and conditioning
circuit to the Scott
Adkins workout
above. This
iscompletely
optional and I
probably don’t even
recommend it if
you’re a complete
beginner to
workingout. You
can do this circuit
after each of the
workouts
above.Perform the
circuit 2-3x with 30
seconds of rest
between each
circuit
Burpees – 12 reps
Dumbbell swing –
20 reps
Mountain climbers
– 45 seconds
Close grip push ups
– as many as
possible in 30
seconds

Diet
How many
calories should I
eat to gain
muscle?
To minimize fat
gains, use the
following:On
workout days, eat
500 calories over
your maintenance:
15 * (your
bodyweight in
pounds) + 500
On rest days, eat
about 200 calories
below maintenance:
15 * (your
bodyweight in
pounds) – 200
