In my opinion, stronger forearms will help you curl more weight, and in turn benefit your bicep training.

Thanks for the advice man! This visualization thing is really nice. i have used it before, but never in between sets. I guess, i’m going to try it.

I like to place some extra emphasis on shoulders and biceps, these are ‘stand-out’ body parts for me.
I’ll probably start getting ‘beach-ready’ in June.

those bi’s and shoulders are getting a beating huh? Getting ready fro beach season lol?

Btw, Spas is getting more and more muscular (under my guidance and inspired by your muscle building ideas). To the point that he is becoming an obnoxious asshole, showing off his muscles lol.

I guess it’s a stage all guys that get muscular neede to go through haha

I use the same routine pretty much. It’s made a massive difference just timing my rests – it’s surprising how long 2-3 minutes.

Cheers for keeping us all motivated!

In between sets, I have found it extremely helpful to incorporate visualization, not just of the body part, but also like this (https://books.google.com/books?id=qo-vs5-SQC4C&pg=PA70&lpg=PA70&dq=soviet+visualize+benchpress&source=bl&ots=2ioW3tK90M&sig=cu_TVgyGDBCFRevNxj0O1pRv_cs&hl=en&ei=nQvISdyTDpO8M_D6nPkJ&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=1&ct=result).

@ Jim. Glad to help. I would just add that you will also notice that successive workouts will not be up to par, even though they are a different body part. If I overtrain my triceps and am working my chest the next day, it’s probably going to be a sucky workout!
@ Paul. Thanks bro!

Thanks, gonna remember all this for my next workout!!

I usually have to remind myself to do less in the way of sets from time to time, or my progress stops. For me, overtraining makes for unrestful sleep, and also a higher morning awakening pulse rate. If you can add any other symptoms to look out for, I would appreciate it.
I also caught the archive of your interview by Jimmy Moore on his Livin’ La Vida Low Carb show. More great stuff on nutrition. Many thanks.

There is definitely a danger in high-set volumes to take a “stratch” set, erroneously thinking “it’s ok if I don’t give it my all on this set, ’cause I’ll make up for it next set”.

Tangential question – in your low-set volume, what category do you count deadlifts in? Back? Legs?
