I did 102 sets of arms today. Is that good?

I suggest anybody interested looks into "planned overtraining", and studies it to understand the concepts behind it. It doesn't require ridiculous numbers of sets, and under its principles the next few workouts should be just as carefully planned.

Unfortunately, unless incorporated CORRECTLY, shock training (or overtraining) will do much more harm than good. Arms are also one of the worst candidates for this sort of training.

Damn I am screwed then,..,,..

I guess those 0.5 inch on my arms (5 hours after last set) was blood or swelling... damn....

waiting for supercompensation to kick in.l......

so how big are your arms NOW?

Very slightly bigger than before...

However I am still sore as hell and cant completely flex them...

102 sets IS alot... so I hafta wait till they actually start seriously growing.

I guess this lends new meaning to the term: Overtraining :rolleyes:


It is overtraining, but different type of overtraining. (good one as opposed to 'conventional' the bad one)

Right. Look into the Big Beyond Belief program. "Controlled overtraining" must be done relative to preceeding and following workouts, not in a vacuum. Also, nutrition and rest become even more important.
 
anyone else notice SSAlexSS neglecting to give his arm size

and by the way...... the .5 inch you said you had 5 hours later..... yes it was only blood...... and by the way.....i could poor 700 grams of carbs in my body for 5 days straight and make them grow an inch too..... but you also put on fat and the minute you de carb...... or go back to normal........ they shrink again...... sorry but thats what we call good ole body chemistry....... dont fall for every gimmick you hear

It's an all day w/o routine suppose to only be done once a year... I ran across it about a year ago


• Given that this program requires you to work arms several times in one day, it might be best if you do it at home. After all, it might be stressful or mentally draining to hang around the gym all day long. That's why the program I've designed requires only very basic equipment, like a bench, dumbbells, and a barbell. (The dumbbells should be adjustable so you can accommodate the different rep brackets. If you have fixed-weight dumbbells, you might want to use PlateMates to fine-tune the load.)
Here's the program, including scheduled meals:
