As you can see, Patrick sticks to a fairly old school way of training. He incorporates heavy compounds such as squats on leg day and barbell bench press on chest day, but also focuses heavily on accessories. Many bodybuilders of today have somewhat abandoned the compound movements in exchange for more focus isolation, but Patrick has not forgotten those exercises.
He also utilizes the Arnold split, as well as push/pull/legs.

Diet is just as important as training, if not more, when it comes to crafting the perfect physique. What you eat reflects how your muscles grow, the amount of fat on your body, and overall is really how you recover. Making sure you get the right amount of protein, fats, and carbohydrates is key for growth.
