Ohhh well it's a lot of isolation exercises. Probably not too much focus on mass, but still a focus on density (volume and thickness without the muscle belly being bloated).

The training principles are roughly the same as those for the IFBB Olympia contenders, but there's no HGH and the focus is on quality, not mass. Olympia guys want quality but they go so hard on mass that they lose shape. It shows the most in the abs. Diet plays a role, too. If you train heavier, eat more, take HGH and focus a bit less on the isolation stuff ... then you get hulky.

Think of the current Olympia standard as 80-90/100 mass and 70-80/100 definition and 50-80/100 aesthetics. Arnold was more like 70/100 mass, 80/100 definition, 95/100 aesthetics. One could say the new guys couldn't compete on stage with him but he couldn't compete on stage with them.

e: probably not more cardio btw. Or not much more.
