How do Bodybuilders Train? 

The bodybuilders workout routines are very strict. Check out some of them!

Most of the time, bodybuilders do 5 exercises per muscle group, 3 to 4 sets per exercise, 7 to 9 repetitions per set, and rest 1-2 mins between sets and exercises according to an online survey of 127 bodybuilders.

Six weeks before a competition, the athletes did 3 to 4 sets per exercise, 10 to 15 repetitions per set, and significantly decreased aerobic exercise, 76% took anabolic steroids and, all athletes used supplements such as serum protein and creatine monohydrate.
