Tuesdays - Bench press (6 sets using progression at bottom of reply), military press (4 heavy sets, 5 reps)
Thursdays - Squats (6 sets using progression at bottom of reply), leg extensions (3 heavy sets, 5 reps), Core work
Fridays - Weighted pull ups (6 sets using same progression), straight barbell curls (3 heavy sets, 5 reps), 1 arm rows (3 sets)
Sundays - Dead lifts (6 sets same progression), hamstring curls (4 heavy sets, 5 reps)
Progression (1RM = 1 rep max)
Set 1 - 40% X 1RM X 5 Reps
Set 2 - 55% X 1RM X 5 Reps
Set 3 - 70% X 1RM X 5 Reps
Set 4 - 80% X 1RM X 5 Reps

Believe you me ghosn, I have lifted weights in the past. I actually used to be a HUGE advocate for weight lifting. When you lift traditional barbell and dumbell weights, you are isolating a muscle or muscle group and lifting a balanced weight. Now, if you can show me a man who has perfetly balanced proportions, then I will lift weights. But until then, I will do what I have been doing, Natural Exercise and lots and lots of drilling.
DAY1 AM: Upper Body (Seated Row, Dunmbell Shrugs, Rear Delt Fly, Dumbell Lateral Raise, Decline Bench Press) 3x25 (30 sec rest between sets)
Neck Bridges on yoga ball (front and back) 3x30 Sec, Rotator Cuff Rehab (Internal and External Rotations) 2x20
