WEEK 5 Train – Advanced workouts techniques
Key points:
- Pyramid sets (DPT)
- Different reps and weight used for each set
- Light weight for high reps and heavy weight for low reps
- Take a full rest period in between each set
- German Volume Training (GVT)
- 10 sets of 10 reps
- Same weight used throughout – use less than usual for GVT
- Drop sets
- Add these if you want to increase workout difficulty
- On the final set of an exercise, once you have completed all the reps, reduce the weight and continue doing more reps
- Can be a single or double drop set
- Eccentrics (pullups)
- Exaggerate the “lowering” portion of the movement
- Assist yourself in getting to to top position in body weight exercises
- Lower yourself back to the start as slowly as possible (6-10 seconds)
- These techniques may be programmed into your workouts so just follow them as written
- We change the workouts and techniques every month to keep you progressing and getting more toned
- If you keep on doing the same your body gets used to it and will stop changing
- Advanced techniques keep you interested and keeps you seeing results
