Triple H’s Workout

Triple H’s Training Workout and Advice
by Ben Tatar

The sport of bodybuilding has taken TRIPLE H to the top of the WWF/WWE. He believes that bodybuilding has made everything possible for him. We have to keep in mind that TRIPLE H is not a “powerlifter” and even in his book he mentions that he could only bench 315 for 2 reps. However, he does have a very impressive physique, he did know Ted Arcidi and bodybuilding did take him to the top of the World of sports entertainment. TRIPLE H recommends this program, mostly to the beginner.

For a lifter starting out, give TRIPLE H’s program a try. And then go from there…

ADDITIONAL TIPS FROM TRIPLE H- 1) Stimulate the muscle, don’t kill it. 2) Train with your goals in mind. 3) keep your mind into the exercise and not wandering 3) You get out what you put in.

SPECIAL TECHNIQUES… TRIPLE H, does what he calls the TRIPLE H burn. This means he doesn’t rest between sets and selects a moderate weight. He does 15 reps on leg press for example, holds for 15 seconds in the flexed position. Then 12, holds for 12, then 10, 7, 6,5,4,3,2,1 second. If that gives you the idea.

So, I believe that TRIPLE H’s program can be useful for the beginner or perhaps the critical bench user while they take 2 months off of training to rest between cycles. I think this will balance their bodies, their lives and then increase the lifters motivation to go after Critical bench again. For me personally, I have found reps beneficial during the off season. I remember doing reps, sets and cardio with my brother. I ended up losing some size and I became very shredded. My muscle endurance also increased, to the point I was doing 40-45 pull ups, benching 225 for over 20 reps. And even though I lost size, I was performing a 355 RAW bench press at 167lbs and 505 with bands and I looked great and was in the best FITNESS of my life. I was also building lots of mental toughness. So therefore, reps were good for me during this time. After that I came back power training stronger than ever. Shortly after, I got my bench into the 400s and I performed a 585 reverse band bench press and did 405 for 23 reps. This path also has given me a broader base of training knowledge.


shakes his head

It’s unclear who claims to bench 405 for 23 reps at the end of this piece, but I think we may appropriately refer to them as “liar.”

As for the program, it’s better than not doing anything, and worse than doing just about any other program.

Triple H is an endless supply of shit.

  2. squat
  3. Find Next
  4. nothing found

=> this routine sucks!

the TRIPLE H burn.

HILARIOUS

The 405x23 was a reverse band bench press, not a bench press.

It does look a little too much like the old Flex crap routines. But it does cycle the reps a little and it does say to only do it for awhile. So if only done as a sort of rest between heavier lifting, it might be OK I guess. Not that I’m going to do it. I assume it goes without saying that if someone wants to lift on their legs they can go ahead and do so outside of this program.

What day do you inject yourself? Heh.

I think there should be a dash between the 2 and the 3 - ie 405 for 2-3 reps
