The Main Goal
Can you build muscle all over your body using the Arnold Schwarzenegger Blueprint to Mass workout routine? The short answer is 'yes'; however, we would like to add 'with a very great deal of effort.' But the fact remains that it is far from impossible, especially if you take it seriously and follow through with the programme. As intense and rewarding as the Mike Tyson bodyweight workout is, the Arnold Schwarzenegger full-body workout is so intense that it makes Iron Mike's look like a Joe Wicks PE lesson. Eight weeks of extreme discomfort might make you as toned and, well, massive as Arnie in his prime.
Before we go any further, it's worth noting that this workout plan was not designed for beginner lifters. They can benefit more from using compound exercises and progressive overload initially. Once they hit a plateau, which might be a couple of years down the line, they might as well Arnie's plan a try. Be patient and persistent, and the results will come. In this video we will cover a number of different exercises Schwarzy used in his prime. Never to forget how to master the Arnold Press for bigger shoulders, how to do pecs flys and finally, a one of Arnie's favourite back exercises, the lat pulldown.

The Arnold Schwarzenegger Blueprint to Mass
Arnold Schwarzenegger is hands down one of the best bodybuilders who ever lived. His physique was almost too perfect: broad chest and shoulders, tree trunks for arms, glutes as tight as a tiger. And if you want to be as big as he used to be at his peak in the 70s, all you have to do is to follow the Arnold Schwarzenegger 8-week muscle building workout plan we’ll now be explaining. The 'Arnold Schwarzenegger Blueprint to Mass' is not an overly complicated workout plan. Much like the Superman-style Henry Cavill workout, this strength and bulk-building bonanza use simple gym exercises that require no nuanced knowledge about how different machines work in the gym. Following the plan, you will be doing a lot of weighted squats, barbell bench presses, overhead presses and the like.

Feeding Your Body
Before we move on to discussing the Arnold Schwarzenegger 8-week muscle building workout plan, let's talk about nutrition for a minute. Probably you know that in order to build muscle, you must supply your body with the right nutrients so your body can grow. This involves upping your protein intake and making sure you eat some healthy carbs throughout the day, but especially before and after the workout, to aid muscle performance and regeneration.
Arnie reportedly took around 1 gram of protein per pound of body mass when he was competing. According to Wikipedia, he was around 260 lbs (~118 kg) 'off season', before he started cutting for competition. That means he took 260 grams of protein per day, which is an insane amount. You don't necessarily have to take that much but you will most likely have to eat more than you do now.

8-Week Muscle Building Workout
Back to the Arnold Schwarzenegger 8-week muscle building workout plan. The eight week plan is broken down into Phase 1 and – not surprisingly – Phase 2. Phase 1 is the first four weeks while Phase 2 starts at week 5 and runs all the way through the end of the plan. The main difference between the two phases is the way you perform the exercises.
In both phases, you will be working out for six days a week, following this pattern:
• Monday: Chest, back and abs
• Tuesday: Shoulders, biceps, triceps, forearms and abs
• Wednesday: Legs, calves and abs
• Thursday: Chest, back and abs
• Friday: Shoulders, biceps, triceps, forearms and abs
• Saturday: Legs, calves and abs
• Sunday: Rest
If this looks like a lot of effort and many hours spent in the gym every day, we have some bad news for you: that is exactly the case here. The Arnold Schwarzenegger 8-week muscle building workout plan might not complicated but it is tough as hell and will require you to lift heavy weights until you can't life anymore. As Arnie himself once said: "Experiencing this pain in my muscles and aching and going on and on is my challenge. The last three or four reps are what make the muscles grow. This area of pain divides a champion from someone who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens."
