The Programme:

Reps & Sets

Rest time between sets and exercises must be 30-90 seconds depending on your conditioning level.

If you are a beginner, how can you progress to a more advanced level? You need to increase the intensity of training by doing one of the following:

• Increase the number of repetitions.
• Add sets.
• Increase or extensively decrease the speed of the movement.
• Decrease time of rest between sets and exercises.
• Add weights to the barbell.
• Use advanced training techniques such as:

Drop Sets: place many plates on each side of the barbell (as much as you can lift for 6-10 repetitions). Perform repetitions till concentric failure then immediately remove one plate from each side and without rest continue the exercise to failure and again remove one more plate from each side.

• Continue this procedure until you’re out of plates.
• Exhaustion-Set System: perform as many repetitions as possible with good technique until concentric failure occurs.

Burn System: perform a set till concentric failure, then proceed with half or partial repetitions.

Pyramids: Start with a set of 10-to-12 repetitions with a light resistance, which is increased over several sets so fewer and fewer repetitions can be performed, until reaching 1 repetition maximum. Then repeat the same sets and resistances in reverse order, with the last set consisting of 10-to-12 repetitions.

Super Slow System: perform very slow repetitions ranging from 20-to-60 seconds per repetition.

Super Setting Systems: In the first type, you use several sets of two exercises for the agonist and antagonist muscles of the body part. In the second type use one set of several exercises in rapid succession for the same muscle group or body part.
