Each week we will be posting a workout from someone in the world of wrestling, be they UK based or Worldwide. To kick things off we thought why not share Randy Orton’s old work out from 2002–2003. We originally saw this workout almost a decade ago on the Bodybuilding.com forums and had it in a notepad document ever since to reference. Focuses more on high reps lower sets and also mentions a little bit about diet from the guy himself.
For a man in Randy’s shape it’s surprising there isn’t more leg workouts involved as his definition is insane, but this was must of been added in over the years when he changed his workout.
Randy Orton’s Workout 2002
I try to do Cardio on the treadmill at a slight incline for 30 minutes, 3 times a week. I train abdominals 3–5 times a week. Chest, Shoulders, Back, Legs, once a week. I do Biceps and Triceps on the same day once a week. I try to work my neck 3 times a week, and my forearms the same. Stretching is very important to me. I stretch before and after I train.
TIME BETWEEN SETS FOR ALL MOVEMENTS IS 30–45 SECONDS

Superset Thigh Extentions w/ Leg Curls : 4 sets — 12–20 reps.
