Yo Bigsexy, today was my first complete week of the GVT. I started last Monday. It feels good. Different then heavy and light lifting. I dont feel real
beat up after, but I do feel like I got a good workout, and the next day I really feel it.
Like I said I had to tweak things because I only workout at home with a DB bench, and DB's.
So heres what I did for me....
Monday Chest/Back
DB press 10X10
DB fly's 10X10
DB row 10X10
DB pull over 10X10
pull ups 3Xfailure
Tuesday Legs
squats 10X10
lunges 10X10
calf raise 10X10
Wed off..
Thursday shoulders
Military press 10X10
front delt 10X10
side delt 10X10
Friday arms
preacher curl 10X10
hammer curl 10X10
DB skullcrusher 10X10
bench dips 4Xfailure
Sat/Sun

You are suppose to progress each week so start out slow. Same with5x5.progress.

Si vis pacem, para bellum
this seems a little bit to much...maybe not for you but to me it seems like overtraining

I've done it for 6 weeks and 12 weeks.
I prefer to keep phases shorter however... Training techniques should be seen as tools, as opposed to being seen as absolutes.
6 weeks is generally when adaptation starts to set in for some with moderate-intensity techniques. For some, exhaustion may set in prior to this however... so keeping it shorter may be beneficial.
