that looks like a very good basic program. you should progress with that. workouts look short but efficient. I would do 5-7 sets for calves, and add stiff leg deadlifts, or leg curls to get the hamstrings. If you want to add some more for chest- flat bench flye's for back- cable rows do you have any bodyparts that you feel are lacking at the moment? | ||

Thanks for the reply Valdez. Because of the 10x10 volume, will I end up overtraining if I add any other exercises? I have good chest development but poor strength. Good strength with shoulders and arms but poor development. What would be a good routine to follow up with when I'm done with GVT? ------------------ | ||

I'm currently doing my second cycle of GVT and it's fanstatic best training I have ever used. On day 2 you added in close grip bench at 10 sets I think this is to much work for one day. In that day alone you are doing 260 reps and all your exercises affect one another, I would cut back on the close grip to 3 sets of 10 at the very most. Enjoy it it's tuff but the results are were it. Cheers | ||

SOB, should I also reduce the number of barbell curls on day 1? Should I just follow GVT with the major boday parts: chest, legs, shoulders, and back, and use a 3 set routine for arms? Thanks ------------------ | ||

hey king Yes if I was you I would stick to compounded movements and then do 3 sets of 10 for other. This is hard work start off nice and easy. Have a look at this site some very good info I think it belongs to Valdez I could be wrong though none the less excellent site. SOB | ||
