Sylvester Stallone Workout

If you're trying to get into shape you might want to take a look at this workout plan that Sylvester Stallone recently shared in an ad for his health products. Do 10-15 minutes of light to medium cardio first.

Exercise

Set 1

 Set 2

squats or leg press

20 6
lying or seated leg curl 6 20
seated close grip row 20 6
wide grip front pulldown 20 6
barbell or dumbbell bench 6 20
cable flye 20 6
front military press 6 20
preacher curl 20 6
rope pressdown 6 20
standing calf raise 20 6
rope crunch 6 20
hanging leg-ins 20 6

Be warned even if your in good shape if you do these exercises with reasonable intensity you are likely to get sick. I try to do these at a pretty good pace while lifting the maximum amount of weight possible to accomplish the amount of reps needed. I usually get a little sick before I'm done. I use this routine on occasion as a good shock to the muscles. Personally, I like to change out my workouts on a regular basis to keep it interesting in the gym.
