So often throughout my weightlifting career - especially in my bodybuilding days - people have asked me "how did you get that big"?

I was born with a small body. I weighed 145 pounds when I graduated from high school. I eventually "grew" to 193 pounds of muscle, and I looked 220, I was that big.

Imagine 193 pounds with a 50" chest and 20" arms, and no, steroids were not involved. I have never used steroids, andro or any other supplement other than Challenge Milk and Egg Protein. I tried Creatine, it only made me a very angry person.

I simply ate a balanced diet and supplemented my diet with milk and egg protein, mixed in apple juice (I hate milk).

My workout routines were and still are quick and to the point, 15-20 minutes, maximum.

Here is my routine, carried out Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. All sets are taken to failure unless otherwise noted. Failure is to the point of not being able to do another rep, not to the point of hurting yourself. Hurting yourself is pointless and is not what weightlifting and bodybuilding are about.

Back - 2 sets of chinups

Legs - 1 set of leg ext., 1 set of leg press - 25 reps

Shoulders - 1 set

Chest - 1 set of bench press, 1 set of incline DB bench press, 1 set of dips (super sets)

Bi's - 1 set of curls - alternate every other workout from bar to DB

Tri's - Pullovers

(Bi's and tri's are supersetted)
