Destroy the mountain.
If you haven’t heard the name Cody Montgomery yet then let us be the first to introduce you to the young talent. Montgomery is a twenty year old phenom whose looking to make a big impact on the sport in the years to come. Cody is the 3-time Teenage National & 2014 Collegiate National Bodybuilding Champion, the first ever to accomplish such a feat. Montgomery has shown the kind of potential that could eventually turn him into a bodybuilding standout.
Montgomery follows a strict diet plan that has seen him shed body fat and make great gains of the years. Hard to believe the guy’s only twenty years old with the amount of muscle definition he’s achieved. He also follows the Mountain Dog training method, a program in which the intensity of your workout is steadily increased and designed for your body to never get used to one particular exercise. Montgomery follows a “Power Day” and “Pump Day” regiment. “Power Day” consists of lifting heavy weight in order to pack on size and muscle. The “Pump Day” however focuses on moderate weight and a higher rep count. The workouts change weekly so Montgomery doesn’t get used to one particular workout plan. Take a look at the young up and comers full workout plan.
