I do 10x10 sometimes but only like once a month. And its usually with squats or bench presses. gets me pretty sore. But never done a workout plan that was all 10x10. Let us know how it works for ya..

finally a reply lol

will do though... you know that feeling you get when you do arms and they are all pumped up .. after i did this my arms felt like that for 3 days!!

I did that work out before thought it was good to mix upy workout. Think the one I did was four days a week. I like doin more high volume lifting when I have time.

[2crazy]

Should also state that even though it is called German high volume I really don't think of it as high volume. My opinion is high volume is more when you are getting over 20sets per body part.

This program like HST doesnt have enough exercises for the back in my opinion.

How can u develope a good back without deadlifts for example?

[DetroitCity]

its just a 6 week thing than back to deads .. give it a little rest .. bad idea or no?

Not doing the deads is fine if you normally do them. When you start back just start out with lighter weights.
