I
have been working with a slight shoulder injury. It is
not bad enough to give up training but care must be
taken to avoid further damage. I have used a simple
version of the German
Volume training and have had very good workouts. My
last chest workout was on a monday and I was still
feeling DOMS on friday. The strange thing about this
chest workout was that I never went over 135 lbs. This
can work for any bodypart so feel free to experiment.
Here
is what you do.
Pick
a weight that you can do with great ease ten times
Get
a stopwatch
Do
ten sets of ten (only
one exercise) If you chose incline bench then do
only ten sets of incline bench.
Keep
the tempo very slow.
3
seconds down to your chest
then
hold it for 2 seconds (dont
rest the weight on your chest stay just above it)
Then
3 seconds back up
Hold
it for 2 seconds and
contract your chest muscles as you hold.
Rest
for 90 seconds and
start again.
You
may not be able to get ten sets of ten on your first try
but dont worry, just use less weight next time.
