Aim:
100 total reps done over a series of sets with the final sets requiring maximum effort. Maximum effort leads to maximum muscle recruitment.
How does this work?
Performing high reps with a lighter load close to muscular exhaustion will add size to your muscles. This is made possible due...

This coming weekend, I'd be doing one exercise for the biceps and one for the triceps. These would include 100 reps for each muscle group, made up of sets of around / between 20-40 reps, depending on the rest time between sets and the load. Yes, an increase in intracellular hydration is my aim...

When I was younger and involved in Olympic weightlifting, I had the coaches do all the thinking for me..., I just lifted what I was asked to lift. Coming to bodybuilding, I followed the same method, a method where you don't lift balls to the wall just because you feel like it or because you can...

A full deck of cards would be ideal. Since the whole workout lasts until every single card has been flipped, you can go with fewer cards to shorten the workout, or use two decks for a crazy challenge. There are three steps you’ll need to repeat throughout the workout:

100 years ago now, back in 1916, Dr Frankenstein created his masterpiece (so he thought), in the form of a monster. That 100 year old monster had a name, he was called Sharif Hussein bin Ali, you may recognise his legitimacy through the birth certificate under the title of the McMahon-Hussein...

This is yet an experiment within an experiment. Most of you are aware of what I'm doing in my training journal, and that I no longer squat..., or do any leg pressing/lunging movements. So the question is this: do you think I can build my legs to a respectable size (or at least to their former...

Review of Arnold's Mr. Olympia Victories

Everyone here knows by now that I do not like giving advice on how or how not to squat. Unless that line of power/the center of gravity where the bar is in straight line with the mid of your foot is violated, I'd keep my mouth shut.
So what's with this squat as a unit thing? We're always...

In the light of this thread: Is volume king?, I’m asking, is TUT the new (and important) kid in town as some would have us believe? Yes it’s important but with a condition, and a full understanding of the type of TUT I’m talking about here. Let me be crystal clear from the outset by saying that...

Yes volume is king, volume of work that is. However there is one clause attached to the performing of this volume, and that is, the most volume you can recover from, is what’s going to either make you or break you..., as far as adaptation is concerned. Yes intensity is essential, but in the...
