Week 1: General

Make peace with your lives, loyal saurs, today we begin!

Weeks one and two will see us following a steady, whole body workout program,  following this template:



A general workout for will give a once sedentary body new life, promoting growth hormone and endorphin release (Naturally occurring painkillers and antidepressants) within you, it is atop this sense of growth and elation that you shall build the power and stamina and determination to tackle the weeks to follow!

With little delay, I give you the upper body workout routine for Week 1:




  • The first number indicates the number of sets, whereas the second is the number of repetitions per set, resting a maximum of one minute in between each sets, and three minutes in between each workout.
  • Stop working out if you feel nauseous, keep hydrated and do not pile on the weights, now is not the time for it.


Below you will find videos of myself and my lovely spotter and gym buddy, Rayan Kattoua, demonstrating the proper technique for the aforementioned workouts:

Flat Dumbbell Bench Press






Incline Barbell Press



Flat Weight Shoulder Raise



Cable Pull down




Bicep Curl





Tricep Dip
