Shirt-Splitting Muscle Size

Shirt-Splitting Muscle Size

Q: I am in need of some back width, or more specifically, lat development. I’m following your 3D HIT program listed in the X-traordinary Arms e-book, but I’m not getting a pump, and I have a hard time feeling my back working. Do you guys have any suggestions?

A: The 3D Positions-of-Flexion lat routine in that program is…

Chins (midrange), 1 x 9-12
Dumbbell pullovers (stretch), 1 x 9-12
Rope rows (contracted), 1 x 12-15

One reason you may not be getting a big pump is the last (contracted) exercise, rope rows…

One-Station Mass Attacks (Improvise for Muscle Size)

Q: My gym always seems to be crowded—and people “camp out” on equipment. It’s hard to work in because I’m using the 4X method and rest only 30 seconds between sets (I love the Positions-of-Flexion version). Should I just lengthen my rest times to work in on a piece of equipment?

A: If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. In other words, you can “camp out” on equipment too—sometimes you can do your entire POF 4X bodypart routine in one spot. For example…

Jonathan: Intense Tuesday (chest, lats, triceps, abs)

Jonathan: Intense Tuesday (chest, lats, triceps, abs)

Incredibly intense Tuesday workout! I can’t take all the credit for the internal focus today, though, as this was the first time I’ve used a pre-workout supplement in ages. At least a year, I’m sure, but the results were pretty undeniable. Fierce workout with an almost abnormal pump. Those are good things… [Read more…]

Jonathan: Hellfire Workout (Chest, Lats, Triceps)

Jonathan: Hellfire Workout (Chest, Lats, Triceps)

Holy Hellfire Workout! My new work schedule is taking some adjusting to, so my new 1-hour training time had to get squeezed into 30 minutes. I had no intention of reducing the workload (except for abs), and I definitely wasn’t going to skip the workout. That meant 3o minutes of pain, but it was surprisingly good – mostly… [Read more…]

Jonathan: Fatigued Friday

Jonathan: Fatigued Friday

Big changes in my little world over the last 24 hours, and they’re all good for a change. That said, it seems my mind wasn’t as relaxed as I was expected when it came time for some shut-eye. With about 4 hours of sleep, I was expecting a fully fatigued Friday workout, but I had a shocking amount of energy. Thank you pot-o-coffee… [Read more…]

Jonathan: Chest, Lats, Triceps, Abs (Torched Tuesday)

That was a hardcore Torched Tuesday Workout. Chest and triceps were particularly on fire, but lats were in the deep-burn zone, too. Funny that I wasn’t actually feeling 100% (let’s just call it “stomach issues”), but strength was up and focus was unreal… [Read more…]

Jonathan: Chest, Lats, Tris, Abs (weekend warrior)

Jonathan: Chest, Lats, Tris, Abs (weekend warrior)

Work obligations tied up my Friday morning more than expected, but no worries, as that gave some more recovery time for the soreness to subside. Full-tilt boogie for a weekend warrior workout this morning, however, and there’s nothing quite like a cold, Saturday morning workout when you know you’re going to be working under a car for 10 hours once you’re done. LOL… [Read more…]

Oh, there will be some chest and triceps soreness tomorrow. Lats and abs are likely to feel a bit worked, too, but there was a bit more than usual that went into chest and tris… [Read more…]

Jonathan: Chest, Back, Abs (basics blast)

It was a great basics blast this morning for chest and back. Great workout, but a couple of twinges in my back reminded me that I need to get up from my desk and move around a bit more during the day. Nothing worse than feeling an injury coming on, especially when the cause is too much sitting at your desk… [Read more…]

Steve: Legs, Chest, Back, Abs (2-set Compound Aftershock)
Using the Size Surge Phase 1 split makes workouts look easy on paper. But the supersets using a high-rep stretch move with a lower-rep, fairly heavy compound exercise are rough–and sometimes nauseating. High reps are not easy, especially on painful stretch moves. Here’s how it went today…
