Hey dudes!

It’s day 2 Operation: Get Jacked!  I’m coming back stronger than ever with a good muscle building workout.

Day 1 got me good, I won’t lie!  This program is for real!

I went super heavy and hard on Day 1 but I’m coming back even harder on Day 2 but with less intensity loading wise.  Today’s focus is on volume.  This is more of a bodybuilding style workout for muscle building.

I keep it athletic by adding in a lot of jumps, skips, bear crawls, and hops in the warm up.  I also add tons of jump rope in as well.  Jumping rope is killer and you should definitely go out and invest in a good jump rope.

Here’s Day 2 – Get After It!

1A) 1 Leg Double Unders x 10/L x 4 sets

2A) Scarecrow Rotation to over head press x 8 x 10 min edt

2B) Mixed Grip Pull Ups x 8  x 10 min edt

3A) Lunge Jumps x 10

3B) Resisted Wheel Roll Outs x 12

3C) BW Squats x 10-15

3D) TRX pikes x 12

This was a good post workout from Day 1’s killing.  Again, I’m keeping things super simple for now.  You’re probably wondering where all the exercises are.  Well, you don’t always need that many to get ripped up!  Trust me!

The mixed pull ups and scarecrow rotations EDT set got my upper back burning like a mo fo!  I’ll make sure to get more of that on video next time.  But, my traps, biceps, shoulders, and forearms got rocked out!

The double unders are hard as hell!  I luckily got the best set on video.  I want to work myself up to 25/leg straight without missing.  With those, it’s an intense plyometric so watch the overall volume.  It’s a great movement to get your nervous system jacked up before you get into the core of the workout.   Always try to put explosive movement like this at the beginning of your workouts.

Of course, you don’t always have to follow the rules

Ok kids – keep hitting it hard.  I’m coming back with Day 3 which is strongman day!  You won’t wanna miss it!

Make sure you leave your questions or comments for me.! I love feedback!  It ensures me that I ain’t just writing to no one.

Let me know about your crazy ass and where you hail from!  I know there’s more crazy mo fo’s out there addicted to the iron other than Joe, myself, and a few others I know.

Hit it up!

Get Forged Strong!
