During a Q&A session on Twitter, a fan asked Old School WWF/WCW Legend Lex Luger the following question:
“In 96-98 do you recall your workout split & training frequency? With you guys always on the road I’d think nutrition & staying fit was always the biggest challenge.”
Luger replied:
“Always did resistance training first followed by 30 minutes of cardio.
Monday-Abs as a warmup
Chest
Tuesday-Calves as a warmup
Back
Wednesday-Abs
Legs
Thursday-Calves
Shoulders/Traps
Friday-Abs
Arms
Weekend off
Tried to hit 1-1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight each day
Managed my body fat level through carb manipulation
Monday – High Carb
Tuesday – Medium Carb
Wednesday – Low Carb
Thursday – High Carb
Friday – Medium Carb
Saturday – Low Carb
Sunday – Treat Day
There you have it.
Same program I utilized my entire career.
The Total Package 😊💪👊”
Another fan asked:
“How bad did the bus tour throw this routine off track?”
The former WCW World Heavyweight Champion wrote:
“Dramatically!!
Had to combine a lot of body parts and frequently, utilized bars and shakes instead of meals. Lost about 10 lbs of muscle.”
