Last night my training partner and i had an awesome leg work out - 30 sets of squats. It was only 290lbs [monster weight etc etc] but every set to FAILURE. After 17 i was dry heaving, and i actually puked at 24! First time thats ever happened to me in the gym! My training partner was so tired he couldn't walk to his car and his gf had to come and pick him up, ha ha ha. This morning my legs feel horrible, i'm walking like a cripple [no offense to any reading this]. How the fuck Platz could do shit like every week is beyond me - he must have been truly hardcore. I'm now going to incorperate this style of training into my routine once evey week, but a different bodypart each time [deads for back, incline press for chest, ez curls for biceps, skull crushers for triceps, behind the neck press for shoulders]. Its vital that you go to failure each time, otherwise its just crappy volume training. And you def need a training partner.

Who thinks they have the balls to train like this? Modify the weight depending on your strength and experiance but give it a go. Its a world away from the usual 3 sets of squats, 3 sets leg press, 3 sets leg extensions that you girls usually train like!

I'm up for training 'hardcore' and trying new ways of lifting but it seems to me if you a natural that's a pretty good way to either overtrain or hurt/tear a muscle.

Same go's with the media in general the more confused and insecure u are the easier it is to control you ;)

We wanted to take training to an extreme level - how many people can say they've actually puked in the gym? It will work out that we'll do this for legs once every six weeks. I hate to use 'flex' type terminology, but we're hoping it will shock the legs into growth. Apart from anything, its really good fun!

puking is almost a guaruntee on leg day....and i've never done 30 sets of squats. I've puked training "like the girls" (4 sets of squats, 4 sets of leg presses, etc) Back day is another guaruntee puke day due to such heavy weights for high reps with lots of drops. but i don't walk in the gym to do 30 sets of one excersise to accomplish a "spit up". Im sure it was hard but personally i don' t think that was a bodybuliders leg workout.

Puking is great. Its a way your body is telling you that you have broken a physical capacity for lactic acid.  I have noticed that when doing a workout that results in puking, my recovery yeilds greater growth, and my body is adapting.

In regards to this post I'm just curious who here has heard of the Austrian Blitz in which relates to one of Arnolds workouts.  Here's the link if you haven't it somewhat supports UK GOLD and is also pretty damn intersting     http://www.abcbodybuilding.com/magazine/austrian_blitz_.htm
