Exercises During Density Training
Q: Again I have to say thank you for your books. I say that because I was mislead thru the years. And I feel that reading your books and my experiences have given me tools I wished I had 20 years ago. I do want to ask you if you think that my exercises in the my density training routine are good, or do you have better advice? I am starting my 9th week.
Workout 1
Neck Bench Press: 3-4 sets, 5-7 reps
Lying EZ Bar Extensions: 4-5 sets, 5-7 reps
Quad Triset: 2-3 sets
Back Triset: 3-4 sets
Workout 3
Standing Calf Raises (3 sets, 15-20 reps)
Swing Laterals (3 sets, 12-15 reps)
20 Degree Incline DB press (3 sets, 10-12 reps)
Close Grip Pulldown (3 sets, 10-12 reps)
Front Squats (3 sets, 10-12 reps)
Seated Leg Curl (3 sets, 10-12 reps)
Workout 4
Close grip bench press (6 sets, 4-6 reps)

Also, with regards to the biceps triset in Workout #2, rearrange the order as 1) Zottman curls, 2) Body Drag Curl and 3) Lying Cable Curls. You'll get more of a pump that way.
Other than that it, looks good. You've learned well, Padawan.
