I used to when I was just doing a few sets and one muscle group. Right now I'm doing more sets and have a upper body-lower body split so it's not possible.

Jay Cutler finishes his workouts in 30 minutes?? i dont think so. Jay trains high volume. takes alot of time.

Yates on the other hand i could see that as hes more of a low volumer.

When I was first starting out I was doing 2 hr long workouts. Now, I'm trying to aim at about the 1 hr mark so my intensity doesn't drop off.

I've tried..and i've gotten done some chest workouts in about 35-40 minutes but that seems awful tough even if you do just 12 sets..

On his videos he seriously does like 6 or 7 excercises per body part and like 5 to 6 sets per.

His Chest workout on Cutabove includesd: Incline Press Bar, Incline Press Dumbell, Flat Dumbell Flye, Flat Bench Press, Pec Dec Flyes and Cable Cross Overs.

30 minutes,

30 minutes,

45 seconds per set, with no rest between any of his 40 sets.

Jay Cutler is truly a world class athlete!

arthur jones had casey viator doing full body workouts in about 25 minutes, all the machines were set up for him and the workouts were so brutal at the end arthur actually had guys carry casey from the nautilus tri machine to the dipping bars. If I had people to load up the equipment I was gonna use and warmed up the right way I could do all my working sets in under a half an hour, I don't have that though so it takes me about 45 minutes to get through a workout on my current routine. Today I'll do chest, shoulders and tri's and I should done in enough time to get a max ot cardio session in..but I think I'm gonna skip the cardio today cause I'm a little worn out.

I started training high volume a few months back. Needless to say, it works for me. I still throw in sets of 6- 8 reps most of the time. Here is a sample chest workout. I did this last night. The workout took me 1 hour and 20 min to complete.

Incline barbell press : 5 sets of 12 -15 reps

Machine Fly : 6 sets of 12 reps

Flat bench fly : 5 sets of 10 - 12 reps

Hammer strength flat press 5 sets of 12 - reps. 8 reps on the last 2 sets

Dumbell pullovers : 5 sets of 10 - 12 reps

Upright bench press machine 5 set drop set

I don't see the point of doing that much work, just my opinion though if it works for ya go for it. I'd rather train mega heavy-for me and get in and out. I like working out and all but I don't want to be in the gym for hours at a time day in day out.

No, I have decided to go 100 percent natural. I was natural before, but took creatine and a host of other suppliments. I drink a coffee then just get it done.

rockyfortune · « **Reply #22 on:** December 07, 2006, 07:46:16 AM »

31 sets for chest alone...that's like three chest workouts for me...i'd be fried for days..

I understand what you are saying. I was training heavy and decided I just do not have the structure for it. I like to feel the pump and need alot of reps to get it going.

Volume is def not for everyone. My muscle tends to look more full now. For whatever reason I do not get tired from this

The weight is moderate. So it is manageable. I also only work one major bodypart per week. I do not know why I like to train this way. I just started doing it and never stopped. I am not exaggerating either. This was my exact workout last night.

The drop set was easy.
