360 Plan
Brad used an intense workout routine for amazing results. His workout was characterized by focusing on one muscle group each day; giving the rest of the week to recover. This type of regiment is very beneficial for adding muscle mass fast. Muscles grow during rest periods and not during the actual time in the gym.
At the end of the week, Brad finished off with a good cardio workout. This put his body in fat-burning mode, which served to shed any extra padding that covered his muscles, giving him that chiseled look.
Here are the exercises that made up his workout. He performed 3 sets, taking one minute to rest between each set.
