does this look like the ultimate program?

I have just started applying some of the principles to my workouts. Surprisingly enough my workouts weren't far off to begin with. I haven't been doing it long enough to see any major changes yet but I can sure feel a difference in soreness the next day. Try the Max-OT warmup, it works awesome. I have added at least 10lbs to each exercise I use it for. I simplified the formula a little though. It goes like this...

Maximum 6 rep weight x .49 (49%) do that for 12 reps (slow and strict)
Rest 1 min
Same weight for 10 reps (a little faster)
Rest 1 min
Max weight x .65 for 6 reps (same speed as last set)
Rest 1 min
Max weight x .79 for 3 reps (medium speed, focus on form)
Rest 2 min
Max weight x .90 for 1 rep (Slow and strict)
Rest 2-3 min
Now do your 3 sets of 4-6 with your max weight, if you can do more then 6 add weight, less then 4 take some off. Max-OT says to rest 2-3 mins, I usually end up resting for 2 minutes, 2.5 at the most. That is a matter of personal choice though.

You will be surprised at how much weight you can add to your exercises. Only do this warmup once for each muscle group. No need to do it before every exercise that works the same area.

I am a member of another forum where there seems to be a lot of people using Max-OT and I have heard nothing but good things.

Kinda like it, but way more volume..........I'm assuming this is just for the one major exercise...........per bodypart

Yes, I use it for the toughest/heaviest exercise out of the group of exercises I am going to do for the specific bodypart I am working.
