The Sylvester Stallone Expendables workout has become one of the most popular celebrity fitness plans of the last few years and is now one of the most asked questions in gyms around the world, alongside things such as "Should women use weight?" and "Which whey protein should I use?"
Today you'll get a complete step-by-step guide showing every exercise in the workout. It'll also explain how many sets and reps are required from each exercise. []
Today's workout is going to work your arms. It will cover the three main areas and will be split into sections designed specifically to hit the front of your arm, the back of your arm and your lower arm. Your biceps are the first phase.
The first exercise here is good, old fashioned chin-ups. Aim for 12 repetitions before moving onto biceps curls with a EZ-Bar and going to failure. The third move in today's plan is dumbbell hammer curls on an incline bench set to around 45 degrees. You need to push this out 12 times.
At this stage most people start wondering what they have let themselves in for. The session moves on to the final two exercises in the biceps phase, which involve 12 reps of a high cable curl followed by 10 zottman curls.
Phase 2 lets your biceps rest up as we move down the arm to your forearm. We'll be using time-tested, battle-proven techniques here to sculpt an area of the body which most people neglect to train at all. Try forcing out 20 wrist curls, immediately followed by the same number of reps with a reverse grip. This is then backed up with 30 handshake curls and nicely finished by a timed hang to failure.
The final phase focuses entirely on your triceps. The back of your arm has yet to be tested, so you'll be pushed quite hard here. Begin with 12 close-grip bench presses and then immediately switch to triceps dips until failure. Once here, transition into a lying triceps extension for 12 more reps before once again hitting failure on dips. By this stage you'll be feeling the burn considerably and the final exercise of the round, rope pushdowns, will finish you off entirely.
Every phase is performed a total of 4 times before progressing to the next. This circuit style approach will elevate heart rate and allow you to maximize fat loss while simultaneously stimulating considerable muscle growth due to the high volume of exercises involved.
For those who have time, the plank position and a set of close-grip push-ups are usually used as a wrapping up phase after the main body of work has been completed.
The Sylvester Stallone Expendables workout is not for the faint of heart and is something you should definitely only attempt once you have found your feet in the gym. We'd recommend spending a few months training regularly before attempting this, due to the extreme volume of exercises used.
