Muscle & Fitness Philippines|June 2019

The workout routines and fitness tips from these experts will help you get that much closer to your perfect summer body.

Your Ultimate Beach Body Awaits

If you’re still rocking a bit of a spare tire, then looking like the guy at left, IFBB Professional League men’s physique competitor Chase Savoie, is a bit out of reach by the end of summer. On the flip side, if you kept to your fitness routine over the winter and spring and can actually see the makings of a six-pack, then you’re pretty close to shredded.

Either way, we have good news: These pages hold the key to sculpting an ideal beach body—whether you’re weeks or months away from it. We’ve culled workouts from shredded actors, physique competitors, and world-class athletes and paired them with lifestyle and diet tips from industry experts to maximize your efforts in and out of the gym.

TYRON WOODLEY

FIVE-TIME UFC

WELTERWEIGHT CHAMP

DUMBBELL RAISE SERIES

Hold a pair of dumbbells at your side and perform 20 lateral raises. Then do 20 front raises, and then perform 20 more lateral raises. Use light weight. Woodley doesn’t use more than 15 pounds.

DAVE BAUTISTA

ACTOR (AVENGERS: ENDGAME, STUBER)

These are done extremely light and not taken to failure,” says Joe Bennett, Bautista’s trainer and a hypertrophy coach at MI40 Gym in Tampa, FL. “These are a warmup. We just go until Dave feels mentally and physically ready to work—sometimes one set, sometimes five. Also, there is a four-second pause and squeeze at the top of each rep during the peak contraction.”
