Title: Kick start gains - High frequency workouts
Post by: dantelis on October 07, 2015, 03:54:39 PM
I've been trying a new workout to kickstart gains.  Specifically, I have been working a single bodypart for a week and alternating other bodyparts each day.  For example, on Sunday I might do my full chest workout and then on Monday will do a few sets of bench and db flies superset with back.  Tuesday, another few sets of inclines bench and cable flies superset with legs.  Etc., etc. 
The next week I do the same thing with back every day superset with other body parts and continue on the program with other bodyparts each week.  One caveat, I do my workouts during lunch and don't have time for a full 20 set session.  I do about 10 -15 sets total during each workout.

Though I know this verges on overtraining, I've seen some strength and size gains in the four weeks I've been doing the workout.  Anyone think this workout has some merit or is it a fools game?

with gh + slin geared around training this can be extremely effective,
using different techniques to hit the muscle from different angles is good too - heavy partial reps in stretch/contraction/mid ranges
heavy sets, blood volume etc
did this with arms as have others i know and it's always worked a treat, similar to what 70's guys did (minus slin + gh!)
