Hadi Choopan Preps for Mr. Olympia Title Defense

High Volume & Weight Distribution 

Another technique Choopan uses is a massive amount of volume — each set is in the 12-20 rep range. He mixes and matches weight depending on the movement. For barbell exercises, such as walking lunges and deadlifts, he trains lighter. Conversely, on machines, he more liberally loads the weight plates, as he did on his leg press of 900 pounds.
