I know this has been talked about all over but I did not see much in relation to what I've been doing.
I Started in the Gym Hardcore everyday in June 2012 I worked out prior just not Everyday on a scheudle and as hard as i am going now. I went from 200lb's to 230lb during the summer adding mass everywhere. I have logs of this as well 14.5" arms - 17" arms, 1" gain on my foreamrs, 2" on my quads, I got super wide to where I was not use to it and bumped into everything. My bf went from 24% to 19% as I wasn't focused on cutting. So I had an amazing summer of bodybuilding.
Now come the past month I joined a new "hardcore gym" The Dungeon. well i payed to be trained by the owner for only 120 a month includes diet plan, etc. awesome deal. But he has his own take on Bodybuilding (which he was a competitive bodybuilder in the past).
300 reps is his thing. In reality we hit way more then 300 if you actually count everything.
1 round is 30 curls, 30 hammer curls, 30 cable curls , 10 medicine ball slams, 15 12lb sledge each side. you do that for 3 rounds then you work the triceps 3 tricep exercises for 30 x each, then the medicine ball and sledge hammer. now he changes each exercise every week so its never the same. well at first it was Light weights. at 30 reps each. now he's dropped it to 25 reps. but you start as heavy as you can go the drop your weights down. but you must still get the 25 reps.
This Gives everyone he trains an amazing swell.. But In honesty I'm not sure If it did much for me .. I only did it for a month but Usually my body gets gains.. and actually my arms seem to of gotten smaller..
Is this style of workout going to build? Or should I go back to low reps heavy weights. maybe this was great for a month to build smaller stabalizing muscles, etc. But I feel I should do maybe 2 months heavy then 1 month of that 300 rep style workout.
Sorry for the length .
Thanks.
