Fat Loss

Program Introduction: This workout is all about bringing some elements of cardio with your strength work. You want to use weight that really challenges you, but also allows you to complete all the reps and sets successfully. Overall, the workout should feel pretty tough, but doable. Raise the bar, and step outside of your comfort […]

Program Introduction: Are you ready for R.T.B.? That stands for “Raise The Bar”! And that’s exactly what I want you to do with this workout. What you’ll see below is that I am giving you a nice mix of a full body barbell complex, with a few dumbbells mixed in. The goal is to perform […]

Program Introduction: This workout is a great total body workout that will hit everything and is all strength focused/high tension.

I’m not big on doing direct training for abs, but I know a lot of our members LOVE to get that burn right in the gut! So in my RoxStar Fitness way, I’m going to give ya what you want, all while doing things that I know you also functionally need for a strong core from inside and out!

This workout is a mix of supersets and Giant Sets that are designed to get your metabolism humming and to save you time so that you can enjoy these extra long days. This is a great workout to do when you don’t have time (or the patience) to do your cardio after your workout because we’ve got some heart pumping full body moves right here for you.  Give it your best and as always focus on your form and technique by really connecting your mind to the muscles that you are working!  Have fun!!

You know when you do a program and it feels really great, and your body responds excellently to it. Well, I really felt that this particular program that I created for my 2014 Olympia prep falls nicely into that category.

I sometimes find myself going BACK to old programs, breathing new life into them, and focusing on beating my previous PRs, numbers, and lifts. This program is no different.

This is my back and bicep workout I crafted for my Olympia prep. This particular program focuses on back width and biceps. I trained back twice a week during that prep, one workout was a width focused workout, and the other a thickness/detail workout.

This workout is all about giving you a fantastic pump in the upper body. We’re going to hit a little bit of everything by way of the 3 major upper body motions – pushing, pulling, and pressing. I want you to try for some new pr’s with this one, so raise the bar, and see if you can beat your past lift numbers (beat your weights). You are keeping a notebook like a RoxStar aren’t you?! Great! Let’s go!

Let me start this off with, I LOVE this workout. In fact, not only did I use this one during my prep for the 2014 Olympia, I also used this workout off season to build my glutes, and find myself going back to it during contest prep time to keep the shape, fullness, and strength of my legs as I diet down.

My advice to you, train hard and REALLY PUSH YOURSELF. Change comes with CHALLENGE, so don’t be afraid to take yourself out of your comfort zone in the gym.

One of the telltale signs of a fit body are well developed arms.  For some, arms are challenging to develop.  Here is an all out arm assault to throw into your routine to see growth and development using high volume techniques such as a pyramid set for your last two exercises.  Make sure to limit your rest to no more than 45 seconds for the final two exercises to push those arms all the way to fatigue.
