* The poundages listed represent those that Coleman often uses for
heavier sets. At times he goes even higher, but these poundages are
"typical" for him and no one else.
* Coleman has used the same schedule and workouts throughout his career,
except that, in order to utilize all of his favorite exercises,
consecutive muscle-group workouts are not identical. These are his
standard exercises, but one unlisted movement may be substituted per
workout.
