HIT Workout: Dec 10th

Great workout today – lots of blue in my chart.  Pull Over with stable weight up 17 seconds, chest press up 20 pounds and still way over 90 seconds.  Lower Back and Overhead Press both up in weight AND time…


Very shortly I’ll be hitting a 50% minimum increase in strength across all exercises and I’ve only been doing this for just over 6 months now.  Talk about an efficient work-out regime! I go once every 7-10 days for half an hour!…next workout in 8 days, then 10 days after that, and then another 10 days…


One thing I noticed, the longer I do this, the better I get at exhausting my muscles – which leads to bigger improvements and longer recovery times.  Talk about a win-win!…the longer you do this the more efficient it becomes!

Kevin,

Congratulations! The efficiency of this approach is almost too good to believe. Until someone experiences it themselves, it is hard to grasp. It always makes me wonder... "What else in my life could I be doing with this degree of efficiency/".
