ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The Next Level of the Trilogy
This is the program Ryan Reynolds used to prep for Deadpool 2. Designed by Don Saladino in 2017, this isn't a guess—this is the real deal. It’s brutal, effective, and engineered for a performance physique that delivers both aesthetics and athleticism.
👉 Beginners: Ease in, master the moves, build your foundation.
👉 Veterans: Unleash it. Crank the intensity. Train like the credits are rolling.
⚔️TRAINING SPLIT
A 6-day training schedule built for serious commitment. Each day is themed, fun, and brutally effective.

🛠️ PROGRAM STRUCTURE
Day 1: Push (Pushing Dominos)
Kick off the program with a full-body push workout, combining compound presses with accessory movements. Focus on developing pushing power through variations of bench presses, dumbbell presses, and triceps work, while ensuring proper shoulder mobility with external rotations and face pulls.
Day 2: Pull (Pull Yourself Together)
Target pulling strength with vertical and horizontal row variations, chin-ups, and lat pulldowns. Mobility drills and scap push-ups prepare your shoulders and back for pulling efficiency, while curls and inverted rows provide additional arm development.
Day 3: Legs (Don’t You Say Legs)
Hit your lower body with a mix of unilateral movements, squats, and RDLs, all designed for hypertrophy and mobility. Emphasis is placed on leg extension, curls, and calf raises, with core work optional for added challenge.
Day 4: Push Pump (The Juggernaut)
Blast your chest, shoulders, and triceps with high-rep pushing movements and pressing variations, including banded bench presses and landmine presses. Push to failure on dips and incorporate isolation work to target each muscle group thoroughly.
Day 5: Pull Pump (Cable’s Arsenal)
A high-volume pulling day designed to develop back thickness and arm strength. Cable rows, lat pulldowns, and reverse flys combine with single-arm carries and curls for balanced pulling power and core engagement.
Day 6: Leg Pump (Knew You Were Going to Say Legs)
End the week with a high-volume leg pump workout, including lunges, RDLs, leg curls, and press variations. Focus on hitting the lower body from all angles for full development and strength.
