Below is a Gym workout for Intermediate/Advance 3 day split lean program

If you are tired of doing the same old routine. Here is a great building muscle workout. 1 month plan

You will do 2-4 sets of heavy weight /4 reps. followed by 2 sets of lighter weight/12 reps (higher reps)
You want to lift heavier then normal weight since you will only be doing 4 reps. Should be heavy enough you can't do anymore then 4 reps but not so heavy you compromise form!

For the second half of the exercise- Whatever your weight reduce it by 10-15lbs to complete 2 sets of 12 reps.  Your muscles will feel fatigued and the last few reps should be difficult.

NOTE: complete 1 full exercise before moving on the the next exercise. Rest 30 seconds to 1 minute between sets.
