Workout Description and Instruction:

Like our Get Jacked Muscle Building Workout Plan, the “Big Muscle” is a four day split routine. This weight lifting routine also focuses on some of the classic staples to building muscle.

Do Workouts A, B, C, and D each once per week on a rotating schedule. Exercises in a superset should be done one after another, but you should still take your standard rest time between each exercise. A rest time of 1-3 minutes is ideal for building muscle.
