Mostly big exercises today–high-rep set followed by a heavy set followed immediately by an X-centric set (lift in one second, lower in six). Really liking this new quick-hit sequence. Lots of mass bang for the effort buck…
Steve: MMX Contracted/Stretch Friday (legs, chest, back +)
Last Friday was all stretch moves for every muscle. I decided to mix it up today–high-rep contracted-position exercise for the MMX effect, followed by semi-heavy stretch move. Wow! All it took was one set of each to hit that deep fiber-firing growth threshold…
Steve: Triple-Set MMX Wednesday (delts/bi’s/tri’s/abs + X-centric set add-on)
Last Wednesday I used all stretch moves. Today I went for mostly midrange work and hammered shoulders and arms with three sets per exercise–20 reps, 10 reps, then 6 to 8 X-centric reps (lift in one second, lower in six). Unreal feel and awesome pump; however, I did skip my isolation leg work because I went in feeling a bit under the weather…
Steve: X-centric-Add-on Monday (MMX legs/chest/back +)
When it comes to working out, it’s easy to start going through the motions–no excitement doing the same old things. I snapped today and decided to alter my method of attack–somewhat. I still used MMX, a high-rep set (20 reps) followed by a heavier set (8-10 reps); however, instead of a rest/pause at the end, I reduced the weight back to my high-rep weight and immediately did an X-centric set, raising in one second and lower in six on every rep. Holy crap, talk about a growth fiber slap. Wake up, fast- and slow-twitch bitches (LOL)…
Steve: Triple-Stretch MMX (legs/chest/back +)
I decided to repeat last Friday’s all-stretch-move workout for legs, chest and back; however, I added a third set…
Steve: All-Stretch Move Wednesday (arms/shoulders +)
My all-stretch move workout last Friday for legs/chest/back felt so great, I decided to carry it on to shoulders and arms; however, I added a third set for added trauma. May be a bit sore tomorrow, but that’s a positive…
Steve: Time-Change Monday (MMX legs/chest/back +)
Overslept a bit today, probably due to the time change. Because of that, I pulled back–no rest/pause add-on sets and no additional arm/shoulder work…
Steve: Stretch-Overload Friday (MMX Stretch legs/chest/back +)
I woke up with an epiphany–I got a fever for more stretch overload. I haven’t really trained the stretch moves with heavier weights in a while, so I decided to do Stretch MMX today. I felt it from the first exercise–talk about change to gain…
Steve: In-the-Way Wednesday (MMX Compound Aftershock arms/shoulders +)
I sometimes describe how other trainees get in my way. Well, today I was in the way. First I was on the leg extensions and there was a gal on a calf block in front of me staring. I thought it was because I was looking so studly, but once I was off, she jumped on (the machine that is–Lol). I was in the way of a couple of more people, but I don’t’ want to revisit. My thought: Payback is a bitch (I’m usually the one having to wait or substitute moves).…
Steve: Monsoon Monday (MMX legs/chest/back +)
Crazy thunder, lightning and rain here on So Cal today. I made it to the gym between downpours, and it was a quick one…
