Terminology
Reps
The number of times you raise and lower the resistance / weight.
Sets
The number of times you repeat the prescribed number of reps.
Tempo
The speed / pace at which you should aim to perform the various aspects of a rep, typically
broken into 4 parts:
1. the eccentric (negative) portion of the movement, i.e., when the muscle is lengthened in
the direction of resistance
e.g., lowering the weight when performing a bench press
2. the concentric (positive) portion of the movement, i.e., shortening / contracting the
muscle against the force of resistance
e.g., pressing the weight up during a bench press
3 & 4: the pauses taken following the completion of the concentric and eccentric portions of
the rep respectively
e.g., pausing / resting at the 2 extremes, the top and bottom of a bench press.
A tempo of 4-3-2-1 for example would specify:
1. perform a 4 second eccentric
2. rest for 3 seconds following the eccentric
3. perform a 2 second concentric
4. rest for 1 second following the concentric/
Isometric holds
For the purposes of this program, an isometric hold is employed following the concentric
portion of a rep (when the muscle is fully contracted) e.g; when your elbows are as far
back as possible during a bent over barbell row. The goal is NOT simply to hold against the
direction in which the resistance is pulling, but instead to contract / squeeze the working
muscle as hard as possible throughout the duration of the isometric, while remaining in the
most maximally contracted position possible.

NOS Sets
Perform 3 successive drop-sets following the completion of the final working set of an
exercise (unless specifically otherwise); allow no more than 10 seconds rest between drops
(ideally zero), plus decrease in load by approximately 20% each drop aiming to achieve 5 - 8
reps on each. At the end of the final full rep of the final set, end with as many partial reps as
possible through to absolute failure.
E.g:
Last set of exercise: 8 reps
Drop 1 (after 10 sec max rest): 5-8 reps with 20% less weight
Drop 2 (after 10 sec max rest): 5-8 reps with a further 20% decrease in weight
Drop 3 (after 10 sec max rest): to failure with a further 20% decrease in weight.
21s
Perform 21 reps, divided into 3 phases: 7 reps in the weakest half of the range, immediately
followed by 7 reps in the strongest half of the range, immediately followed then by 7 full reps.
E.g (using a bicep curl):
1. raise the wight to halfway. Lower. Repeat a further 6 times times (for a total of 7 reps)
2. immediately raise the weight to the top. Lower to halfway. Repeat 6 times
3. immediately lower the weight to the bottom. Now perform full bicep curls from top to
bottom for a total of 7 reps (and 21 in total for the exercise).

Notes
* The Training Split / Schedule
With this being an arm specialization program, I have written out detailed workouts for
biceps and triceps, along with what I believe to be an optimal training split for them.
Many of you will want to know how to add your other muscle-groups into the schedule, and
so Ive outlined a rough suggestion for their placement, along with how many sets I suggest
you perform for each.

Unilateral Movements
When an exercise is to be performed one side at a time (think lunges for example), the rep
target depicted indicates the number of reps to perform per side, NOT in total; also, unless
specifically stated otherwise, take no rest between switching from one side to the other.

This is a GIANT set workout. Do your best to set up ahead of time and make the flow of the set smoothly and quickly. Do one set of each
exercise all the way from A1 through to A10), then rest 3 minutes. Then repeat for a total of 2 giant sets.
NO cheating. The goal this workout is good form causing massive cell swelling.
If your gym is busy, split the workout into giant sets of 5 exercises each.
