The Busy Man Bodybuilding Workout
Check out this highlight of what happens when I am short on time and a bunch of Strong BEASTS roll up to The Underground Strength Gym…
Note the use of the HEAVY dumbbells, 130 – 150 lbs, ripping them off the ground for full body strength and power.
Lots and lots of weighted pull ups with mixed grips to hit the upper body from ALL angles!
People think short workouts don’t do much, I always change their mind once they train WITH me.
I say the same to the Coaches who go through my USC Certification…..
I tell them to always Live the Code, represent what we do and NEVER fall out of shape…. it can be done with fast workouts if that’s all you got. And trust me, we ALL get one of those times in life when we are crammed for time, NOT to worry.
If someone tries my short workouts and say they didn’t feel it, I know they trained like a pussy. #TRUTH
If you are busy as all hell and wanna stay strong, lean and mean, then step right up for the challenge
Train Hard or Not At All

PS: Those were competitive strongmen going through the workout and they got blasted from it! We ALL got blasted because we went after it, full throttle.
PPS: This entire Underground Workout is available at The Underground Inner Circle - 30 day trial
Share and Enjoy

Comments on The Busy Man Bodybuilding Workout
Heavy dumbbell overhead work mixed in with weighted pull ups is one of my favorite workouts of all time! You guys were crushing it!

Zach! Been receiving your emails (you send alot man! HAHA) for about 2-3 weeks. Your doing some great things, love the vids, intensity, jokes & everything else that kicks ass. Great job bro!
This above video is GREAT. I’ve been working on my OH presses, straight bar & db’s as of late. Dr. Ken says to obtain REAL strength one must OH lift. I agree, maybe one day we’ll get back to…how much you press? Instead of…how much you bench?
Thanks & keep up the great work!

Sean – yooo bruddah, I miss you, you ARE the pull up MASTER!
Dean – hey bro, thnx for the props, yes, I’m always writing and doing vids, sooooo much to share w/every1 I can’t keep it locked up!!! ha ha
Dr. Ken, now that’s a man who knows INTENSITY!
Believe it or not, I was gifted w/incredible stuff from a viewer of this blog, with all of Dr. Ken’s VHS tapes and I watching them last night, in fact, watch a clip right here:

That video pissed off A LOT OF PEEPS, he he he
I will say this, having a BIG bench AND a strong overhead is awesome!
This also means balancing out with plenty of rowing / pulling movements!
I wanna see more comments and let’s get this discussion pumpin!
Peace!

Awesome stuff Zach.
I cracked KB snatches and weighted pull ups today as I was a little pushed for time.
Short workouts rock
[Reply]
Awesome!
My first 15 min. workout today was pulls and clean and presses.
Probably do about 15-20 minutes of snatches with kettlebells this evening.
Time to eat.

Zach, I know that you’re good friends with Joe Defranco. I don’t know if you’ve read the Ask Joe article on coconut water, but I’ve read that it’s better than sports drinks. The problem is, I can’t seem to find any at the oriental markets near my home. I live in Howard Country, Maryland and I can’t seem to find any coconut water. Any help? Do you have any experience with coconut juice? Love getting your emails and watching your videos. Thanks brother.

Zach,
Love the Busy man bodybuilder workout! When it comes to those short workouts Kurt Angle says it best- “Intensity, Intellegence and Integrity”
As it applies to this workout:
Go balls out- don’t be a pussy (like you say) use a weight that jacks your heart rate right up! Intelligence- use the right exercise at the right time in your program! know the big picture! Integrity- do the work assigned at your best! You know when you cheat- DON’T DO IT!
Great info! Love this content!

I’ve been getting some serious pain where the tricep joins the elbow when I do a lot of pull ups recently. Apart from the obvious – back off till the pain goes- any tips? Keep up the vids and stuff, the book link earlier was fantastic- loads to read. Thanks.

Keep killing it,
