5 Day Split

If the answer is yes, keep reading because I have a dead simple, shockingly effective 5 day workout routine that will get you in and out of the gym in no time flat.

If 5 days a week is too much, click here to check out our 3 day split. 

I know you've seen the guy, the one who's in the gym when you get there and still there as you're leaving.

Completely unnecessary!!! 

Some say it's counter productive to weight train for more than one hour. I personally see no point if I can get everything done in 45 minutes.

Another benefit of a quick 45 minute workout is at the end you still have energy left so if you're looking to burn some extra calories you can just hop on a cardio machine.

Now, you can choose any 5 days of the week  you like, I personally like Monday - Friday so I have my weekends free. Check out www.MaxMuscleMass.Net for additional tips on how to build muscle fast.
