Brian Casad’s Transformation Workout

Cover Model Methods

Brian Casad’s training program has been an evolving process. When his physique transformation started in early 2011, he was doing the old standard 
3 sets of 10 on nearly every exercise and taking plenty of rest between sets. His training intensity and volume were low, and his exercise selection was limited.

In contrast, what you see here is Casad’s current program, which he calls “an athletic bodybuilder approach.” Keep in mind that he didn’t adopt these workouts overnight. He gradually increased volume 
and intensity over time; so if you’re just getting started on a transformation of your own, you should have the same mindset. Start small, then add on.
