Title: Kris Kangas workouts!!
Post by: Sergio on January 15, 2013, 05:54:15 PM
I want to show in this topic many of the good routines (always as good as the injuries let him) of a good friend for me that I had the pleausure to meet him (online, but met after all) several years ago.  After his pass away I felt that I lost a big partner so I decide in the regpark.net forum and here to keep his training style and his nowledge alive.  As well as his forearms records, reletive and even absolute, for a men of 5'7" of height.

One reason to do this is reding again his workouts, advices, experiences like there were new, and so motivate me and hope everypeople that read it.

Hope that in one month I put a good amount routines for analyze them and extract very usefull information for all.

For the last month I have been doing a total body routine, based on db press, chins, dips, squats, hammer and wrist curls.
I am going on a split, divided chest, back, shoulders, second workout squats, tri, bi, forearms. Energy requirments are about the same. Every 3rd squat routine will substitute deads or Romanian deads. May or may not be days rest between workouts, all depends on how I feel. Should average 4x a week.

Chins 5x5
Rows 4x7, to 80K
Pulldown, 2x20 40K
Bench 5x8 to 80K
BNP 4x8 50K
Semi upright  row 2x15 50K

Will drop pulldowns, too redundent and put semi upright row in instead, with back. Kilo is 2.2 lbs.

Semi upright row, bend over at waist 15-20 degrees, medium grip, row up to sternum, no higher. You can work up to some good poundages with these. Hits rear delts, traps, upper back, good bulk builder. This is a pull move I often use to balance a push move like presses.

Counting rest periods is a conditioning thing. It's one of the ways Vince Gironda (trainer of Larry Scott, Don Howorth, even Arnold was sent to him by Weider) trained bodybuilders. 6x6 and 8x8 are two of the protocols he used. Mohamad Makaway trained with 8x8 under Vince for a Mr Olympia. You take a weight, say for curls, 25 pounds, curl eight times, rest periods going as low as 10-15 sec,(never taking hands of the dumbells) lift again, reapeat 8 times. Most guys can't do all 8 sets, even advanced guys. Not a training regieme for building big numbers on the wieghts, but will give good growth and an extreme pump. Not to be used permanently, I'm just doing a change of pace right now.

-----------------------------------

Started on SL Deads in earnest a couple years ago when I had access to an Oly bar and squat rack. They went up along with the squats. Last year I did the squat challenge. Squats went from 250 to 370x7 in I think it was 14 weeks. I then backed off the squats, and started hitting the deads and SL deads 1xweek, alternating. Couple months ago hit 441x2 on reg. deads, then didn't have access to the rack and Oly bars. Am now using a 1 inch bar, ouch! 300 is max weight I can get on the bar without more larger plates. I find if I hit the squats hard, the deads don't suffer even if I don't do them for a month or so. I started on the SL deads a couple months ago again, and find between squats and SL deads, I believe my reg deads will go up. I'll test that out soon.

 Visited Mexico many times, gave some seminars down here, liked the weather. The illegals are almost always the poorest, uneducated. However there are the middle class which you never hear about. Also Mexico is country number 4 in the world with billionairs. I have an unusual niche here as I train bodyguards and police, and trust me they need the training, as well as a martial arts school.

 I have been working on wrist curls hard for about 2 years now. Used to throw in a set or two as an afterthought, couple sets of 15-20 with a hundred lb barbell. Decide to treat them like any other move. I think you can make great gains if you spend a little time with them. I started mostly with barbell, but have gravitated toward more dumbell. My all time high was a bb with 242 lbs, one rep. Tried 250 but don't weigh enough to counterbalance the weight up. This was Larry Scott/Bill Pearl style, with forearms resting on small bench and levering up the weight, thumbless grip. When you can use 2 45's on each end of an OLY bar, people really freak out.

Post by: Sergio on June 10, 2018, 10:37:48 PM

I think I'm starting to burn out on this routine. HAve been on it 6-7 weeks. Went pretty fast on getting to 15 sec rests I think, and nailed everything but DB bench. Last 2 sets (on bench) starting to bother shoulder. Have seen a nice change in muscles though. Will play around a little, and give myself a little more time on rests between sets. Good stuff Cajin!

DB bench
75x8,8,8,8,8,8,6,6. All with 15 sec rests.
DB rows
75x8x8, all with 15 sec rests.
Standing flys
35x8x8, all 15 sec rests

16 min.


 Can flex the chest now, due probably in part to DB bench as opposed to bar. Shoulders have a little meat on medial deslt. Have added a bit to forearms, 13" unflexed, arm straight,14" flexed. Have gained a 1/2" since last year. Upper arm, 17 inches cold, no gain, (actually larger last year) but look more defined. Chest 49" flexed, seemed to have gained a bit there. Have no idea what these numbers mean, but will see what happens as I change the routine. Will do a bit more warmup pyramiding the weight. That's all I got man, hope it makes sense.



12-16-07

OK, changing up a little

DB press
40x10, 62x8,8,8, felt heavy, not pushing today.

Took yesterday off and then hafta search for the dang log!

Bench
135x10, 165x10,10,10, 145x15,15. Shoulder bothers me a bit, go back to DB's, better pump also.

Rows
145x15, 165x10,10, 190x10,10, 145x15. Not as good a stretch as with DB's.

SL Deads
145x3, 210x3. 290x3, 325x5. All the iron I could get on the 1" bar.

BB wrist curl, for fun. On special forearm bench, also used as a chopping board, ;)
145x20, 180x15,12, 165x15,12. Haven't done these in months, and shows.
DB wrist curl
80x20. Better pump, and hits flexors more. BB seems more wrist than flexors. Starting to think DB's are my future, doh!

40 min. of fun and games. Going for ice tea, must have drink!
What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach.



12-30-07

OK. I guess this is the last workout of the year, as I'm taking tomorrow off.
Shoulders and arms fried from yesterday, so light weight blood pumping workout.

Reverse/hammer curls, DB's
40x20, 20, 15, 15, that's it, I'm fried.

Will rest flexors today, maybe try for new PR DB wrist curl in Jan. Goal, 125x3-5.

36 min.

Decided to make a wrist curl PR.
85x20, 100x15, 127.6x5! PR! 90x25! Heavy sucker, but exceeded goal of 125. What to do for next year? Hmmm.

32 min. Nice tight workout. My tri's were hammered, and my hammers were tried. Dipped, battered, and double deep fried. Giddyup!

I did mostly full body 3xweek from age 49 till around 55, that's 6 years, with an extra forearm workout here and there. Mostly squat, dead, chin, row, dip and press. Like the others said, you got to work up to it. I do on occasion workout 5-6 times a week(like when I was in my 20's) when I have the time and energy, but all in all, you can build a lot of muscle not to mention strength, on 3xweek. Stick with it a couple years, you'll see, 


02-09-08

Yep for performance work, it's hard to beat 3xweek. A push, pull, and a hip or quad dominate exercise. Get freaky strong.

Coughing today still. Weird. Very busy and a little tired, so will hit forarms and do a real workout tomorrow.

DB wrist curl, alternate, Sipes style.
80x45, 100x25, 110x15,(PR?) 91x25, 80x25

Long day, seems I do more work on my days off, huh? Got most of my plates repainted though. I have nonslip step tape on my DB's and bar, nasty stuff, so I painted the handles, smothed out the sandpaper effect, but still has a good grip! Nice.
Late start for a workout, and a little tired, so will blast it like I have no brains,

Today's sack of fun...

Squats
175x8, 210x5, 245x5, 290x5, 310x5, 255x5,5,5, knees hurt, back sketchy, par for course...

Wrist rollers, forward/back, both hands
150x50/50, 25/25, killer!

25 min. I'm a survivor! So cold today, barely broke a sweat. It's the coolest summer I've spent in Mexico. So much for global warming!

Not counting sets or reps today.

Pullups, slow on the neg. portion.
BW

45 degree pulley row with towel
70, pause at top, squeeze hold on bottom, pumped and back aches! Can easily do more weight, but will rig up an anchor, did these standing today.

Flys, touch bells top, slow reps
50's

DB bench, touch at top with squeeze
50's, chest is hurting

30 min. Kept slapping myself not to count at first, then got into the zone. Guessing 6-8 sets each exercise, 8+ reps.
