Getting used to X-Reps
Getting used to X-Reps
Feb 24th, 2010 | By Coach Chris | Category: Beyond The First 90 Days, Still Pressing Play with Coach Chris
Today’s workout was shoulders, biceps, and triceps. But instead of doing the entire workout twice through as Tony has you do, we did X-Reps.
X-Reps are something new Nancy and I are doing. Basically X-reps are a pulsing move we do at the end of our reps. For example with regular curls, we do our reps until failure. Then we do our X-Reps, which as I said are a pulsing move, and it is performed at the point in the move that has the most tension. This system of X-Reps was created for the soul purpose of building muscle at an alarming rate. We started X-Reps for real at the beginning of the week.
I can’t wait to see what kind of progress we make with the X-Reps method. Unfortunately I’m not sure I will count this week as I have been sick since Saturday, and I have not been able to do my absolute best. Although I must say after Monday’s Chest & Back workout my pecks looked a lot bigger. Anyway I will continue to post about the X-Reps, what I like, what I dislike, and basically let anyone who is interested know whether they should implement X-Reps.
