I just saw an article on 'German Volume Training' http://www.leehayward.com/art24.htm
I have never heard of this before and was debating changing to this style for a few weeks to give my body a taste of a new routine. Has anyone here used this 10 rep for 10 set idea with any success? It seems so far off in left field (imagine benching 100 times in 1 routine)...wouldn't that 'tone' more than 'build'?
My typical bench count goes something like this while upping the weight each time.
10 reps
8 reps
6 reps
5 reps
3 reps
1 rep
This is only 33 reps as opposed to 100 reps Another concern is time, I don't think I'd have the time to do 100 reps of everything
