Thread: 10x10 routine for arms.... Anyone ever do it?

i was talking to a former Mr. America a while back. he said he used to do 50 sets per bodypart.....he said there is no such thing as overtraining....there is only under recuperating (not enough sleep, eating right etc). this guy was enormous, i think he knows what he was talking about. anyways, 10 sets isnt that much for a bodypart anyways.....

I'd have to say that would make sense

I was doing a 3 day split over the summer

I did nothing else apart from rest/eat/sleep

Now I realise with all that extra rest I could have probably done a 4 or 5 day split easy, I just didn't want to overtrain but I see it more clearly now

50 sets par body part ?? how? So Satan mentioned that there are totally 30 sets for arms for a week...or if twice per week...it would be abt 60 sets...
gosh
the poundage as well as rep will decrease eventually....
This is like total kill for that particular muscle..
I don't know why ppl do like that ...
for intensity-oriented techiques...it would be quite awkward...
I wanna tried this once in a month ...for the sake of shock or variation for the mucles....
