Welcome to #RoadTo185! I created these workouts for me, and I’ve done them for 3 months to pack on some serious muscle mass, all while keeping my abs! That’s is the goal, gaining most of your weight from muscle so it becomes easier to stay lean. Ask me any question in the comment box below this page and it will be a real pleasure to interact with you!
FAQs
1. How long should I follow this workout program?
I would recommend you to follow #RoadTo185 for 3-5 weeks in a row. I did follow this plan of action for a total of three months, but I would do 2 weeks of other Team Fitt workouts to make sure my body doesn’t get used to it too much. To summarize, do 5 weeks of the #RoadTo185, then make yourself a new plan by going through the workout section, follow it for 2 weeks, and then come back for 3-5 weeks to the #RoadTo185.
2. What kind of diet should I follow with #RoadTo185?
The primary goal with this workout program is to gain lean muscle mass. With that in mind, that’s not to say that you can’t lose fat with it. According to your goal, you might want to adapt your diet with the Nutrition Planner available in the download section. Because it’s to gain lean muscle mass, I would recommend you to first add 500 calories to your caloric maintenance zone. Then, adapt every two weeks by increasing or decreasing by 100 calories based on the results you’ll have.
3. Should I cut or bulk first?
You should focus on one goal at the time, because you cannot give 100 percent of your effort to two goals at once. I suggest to cut first and be lean before doing a bulking phase. The reason is, when you are lean (below 10% body fat) you will produce more testosterone and therefore grow/recover faster. You will also have a better recovery process, more energy, assimilate your food quicker to build muscle and burn more calories while at rest. So, I think it’s the best decision to do a clean bulking afterwards to maximize lean muscle gain and minimize the gain of fat.
As for the time to spend in a bulking phase? Bulk until 10%, then cut back to 6%, and then you can enter another bulking phase.
If you want to follow a cutting program, check out the LumberJacked series by visiting Workout > Team Fitt Series.
For me its #roadto150 hehe… Im a fresh starter, so thanks for all the explanations ! Grace à toi j’ai la motivation ! Merci
Hello marc
I’m a beginner in the gym
You could do what you do
Hi Marc, do you know if I should combine workout together like, chest+shoulder, chest+back etc?
it isn’t the last machine sorry… is the 4th exercise from chest… next to the flyes… should i do peck deck?
Hey Marc.. I don’t have the chest machine to do the last exercise from chest… What should i do?
If I do arms in the Back day and do them again Friday for the next 5 weeks it’s a problem?
Just one more question. I did the back workout today, and it was awesome (those rack pulls), but i had a little trouble understanding how to target the upper and not the delta when doing the first exercise. could you just explain it a little please ?
What you try to isolate is moving more with your trapezius than your rear Delt. It is hard to do, but worth practicing with light weight at first.
I hope this helped you out.
Hi marc, quick question. Whats your opinion on intra-workout drinks? Are they better than pre-workouts? and can they be combined since they’re supposed to target a different time point in the muscle catabolic state?
Yes they can be combine. I really like to a good pre-workout meal 1h30-2h before my workout and add up some carbs intra workout mixed with my BCAAs when I’m in a lean bulking phase. Otherwise, usually I just have my pre-workout meal.
hey man I wana to start this workout but I also want to keep developing my arms. Would I be able to do like chest in the morning and then come back later at night and hit triceps? or should I just do both in the same time? ( time is not an issue)
