I'm finishing week 6 of GVT right now, and i must say i enjoyed it. I am not over trained, and i am looking forward to the 3 week break going back to my 5 day split on monday. The timing of rest periods between sets really increased the intensitity of my workouts. I guess i usually rest too long. Also i'm sweating in the gym again, my body is going all out straight for the 10 sets. Sure the first few sets are easy, but you notice that minute and a half rest gets shorter and shorter as you get to the end.
10x10 is a real test of manhood. My first week i barely made it with 185. Second week my body had adjusted alot and it was easier. But i was sore for a whole week after the first week, i mean i could walk properly for 4 days and was sore for 3 more.
Bench sucked, i wasn't nearly as strong as i thought i'd be, my tris always died on me. I do believe tho that the muscle recrutiment was definetly there on those last sets, because i had nothing left. Your body adjusted to the volume, or atleast mine did. And yea i did get that sick feeling the first few weeks, its intense.
Anyway i'm looking forward to going back to my old split for the suggested 3 week rest period, i'll be remaxing once i adjust to low reps again, and i'll see what i gained or lost. I know for sure my squats will be up. Leg day is a kill, it'll make a man of you.
Just my opinions
