2-a-Days= 8 Week Success Story Part 2

My 2-a-Day Journey

Believe it or not, the hardest part of my journey was preparing for it. Every night I would pack my gym clothes, lay out my work clothes, pack my lunch and protein shakes for the following day.
Waking up early was pretty tough too, but after the first two weeks I actually looked forward to getting ready to get my "lift on."

A normal 2-a-day for me:
Roll out of bed at 6 am and clumsily drag myself into the kitchen to consume a bowl of cheerios and a pre-workout shake.

7 am- Arrive at the gym ready to workout--- I had a workout partner, which made it easier to get motivated. (I will post later about the positives of getting a workout partner.)

Here's a brief look at how my workout evolved through the week:
Monday: Morning-Chest & Triceps; Afternoon- Back& Biceps
Tuesday:Morning-Legs & Front Delts; Afternoon-Traps, Rear Delts
Wednesday:Morning- Back & Biceps; Afternoon- Chest & Triceps
Thursday: Morning-Traps, Rear Delts; Afternoon- Legs & Front Delts
Friday: OFF
Saturday:The Gauntlet--- Everything (Only 2 exercise/muscle group)

I only did 3-4 exercises per separate muscle group per day. I made sure that I did different exercises for that muscle when I reached the second and third workout of the week. For example:

• Session 1 Chest- Flat Bench, Incline Fly, Cable Crossover

• Session 2 Chest- Incline Bench, Flat Fly, Cable Pullups

• Saturday Session 3 Chest- Decline Bench, Decline Fly

I could usually knock a workout out in an hour, but it was fast-paced and usually super-setted.
8:15 am--Post workout Shake w/ simple carb snack ( I will post on this later).

I would then go to work for the day and gain my recovery.

6pm- I would do my afternoon session and every other day do cardio for 15-20 minutes.
7pm- Post workout Shake w/ simple carb snack
8:30pm-- Eat Dinner
9:30pm--Prepare for next day
10:30-11pm--Bed. REST IS VERY IMPORTANT-- otherwise your workouts will be crap.

Were the results worth the effort? Look at these pictures and you decide--- remember this is only 8 weeks working out and a proper diet.Plus I'm not gonna lie, I really wanted to show someone these pics ;) And no I didn't cheat by using "superior supplementation" --



In part III, I will show you how to customize a 2-a-day program for beginners and intermediate fitness levels.

I'm Out..
