Dennis Wolf Workout

Dennis Wolf Bodybuilder Workout Routine

Dennis Wolf is a German IFBB professional bodybuilder that has placed in the top 5 positions of the Mr. Olympia competition for the last 10 years. Dennis is now an old hand at competing in the top ranks and commands a lot of respect from his fellow competitors.

Dennis has also won the Arnold Classic and taken 3rd or 2nd place in the same competition about 6 times over the last 10 years. He has some very specific ideas on training and believes strongly in free weights. Dennis explains that he would train with a free weight to attack a body-part first, when he starts his workout.

After doing his free weight movement Dennis would then go onto isolation movements using a range of different options including machines and cables, as well as dumbbells. He explains that his objective when training is to train with quality and quantity.

Dennis says he still gets the best results from training in what he calls the middle ground using 10-12 reps in most of his sets. When training his hamstrings and his calves Dennis would increase his reps to 20 or 25 reps. Listed below is a sample of the type of training routine that he would follow.
