Jamesy Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 After speaking to a couple of guys down my gym im trying this out for 1 week only, as i reckon i'll be hanging by the end of it. One muscle per day - 10 sets of 10 reps with 1 minute rest between sets. Did the 1st one today with shoulders - did seated shoulder press starting at 80kg's but did the last 5 sets on 65kg's.... was an absolute killer. Also had time to do shrugs on the smiths machine so did 80kg - 10 reps x 10 sets 1 minute rest (finished off with 6 reps at 110kgs)..... now im ruined!! Going to do each muscle group throughout this week then back onto usual training - the pumps do feel really good though as i'd kind of reached a plato (sp??) with my weight gain and hoping aweek of hell using this technique will be a decent boost. Also started taking amino's before and after workout and a can of red bull on the way into the gym!!! Anyone else tried this before? How did you find it?

adnanshah247 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 ive done similar, max interval training concentrating on a primary muscle. it has worked kinda, i prefer mixing and matching my training though to get a good work out ie. a mixture of muscle. my body absorbs more of the protein shakes and i feel a lot more wrecked at the end of training.

I usually do 3 weeks of heavy training - 3 or 4 sets of 6 reps heavy as i can. Then i'll do 1 week of lighter weights and massive reps like 12-20 or til faiure - just to keep the muscles guessing whats coming next!

Noz Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 only take no xplode every now and then though, alot of people say it stops working after a while. i only ever take it on my chest/tri sessions. havent felt it loose its kick and been using it non stop for ages. 10 sets is good, i usually do 7 minimum, i think thats a good routine bud.

penguin Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 only way to get stronger which seems to work for me is to do 1-2 weeks of heavy weight at a max of 2-3 reps, 4 sets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 I was more referring to the actual technique of 10x10 routine on the main core exercises and its effectiveness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezzler Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I've tried a lot of supplements, all deemed as the next big thing... Save your money. Eat clean 6 times per week, consume correct measures of protein, carbs and fats for your body composition and you're laughing. "NO Exploding Death-Napalm TURBO Mach3 TYPE-R" may stimulate you to press on through a tough session but so will good old school grit Back on track... GVT is a good body shocker, but you would want to run with it for longer than 1 week. Last time I ran a GVT program I did it for 10 weeks, made some decent gains on my legs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I ran a GVT program I did it for 10 weeks, made some decent gains on my legs Really 10wks?! Im more than up for running it for longer than a week. Its good to try something different and im pretty sure i should get some results from it. Im only using pro6 protein at breakfast and right after lunch with some creatine mixed in. Then amino acids right before and after workout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supradibbs Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Been using Jack3d for a while and its a great energy booster contains virtually no creatine so i also take that as a supplement, have been seeing good results considering i dont get much time to dedicate to working out right now.

So you just do 1 movement for 10 sets and 10 reps ie 10 sets bicep curl ??? ahhh thats how you spell PLATEAU Yes mate - thurs im doing bicep - so basically i'll use the long olympic bar for curls (20kg) with 10kg's each side (40kg's total) do 10 reps, rest for 1 min another 10 reps, rest 1 min etc til you get to 10 sets.....by the time you hit set 6-7 you will be hanging, but once your finished on set 10 you will be pumped UP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 Ok so just back from the gym... OH MY GOD Ended up doing arms as someone was on the back thing i wanted to use: Did standing bicep curls using the olympic 20kg bar. Did 5 sets of 10 @ 40kg, then dropped down to 35kg for the last 5 sets of 10. Finished up doing an 11th rep back at 40kg for 6 reps... the pumps were awesome, the pain was brutal Then i had time to do triceps, so i did stand cable tricep pull downs using the rope.... 33kg's for 5 sets of 10 then 31kg for the final set of 5 x 10..... I can honestly say my arms havent felt so WRECKED in a long time.... I cant wait to get in there tomorrow now and nail Chest....BOOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
