Program Description
Arms Race. Nah, but seriously this is a program designed by myself, for myself. As a spider physique having person, my arms could use a periodization. Further, I have picked up running again and as such need to reduce the load on my legs. This means cutting volume in certain areas to allow my arms to get fully annihilated.
