Upper-Body Mayhem!!!

My personal goal in 2015 is to put some serious muscle on my upper body, especially my shoulders and back. Building muscle isn't always as easy as it sounds, and finding workouts that really do the job can be full of trial and error. The important factor that people forget when trying to put on mass on any muscle group involves a few factors: 1) time under tension 2) total amount of reps 3) rest according to your goals.

This workout has fit the bill for me in the last few months, offering a high-paced, strength-based workout that does double duty- lifting and cardio in ONE!! BOOM! Here is is:

-5-7 min cardio warm-up and 10-15 min stretching, focusing on the upper body

SUPER SET #1- perform 5 rounds, 10 reps of each, little to no rest between
-Barbell Military Press
