1 set bentover rows, 1 set dips
then Move onto #2. Trying to keep rest in between supersets minimal.

Out of necessity(injury) I have been doing this type of rountine and have experienced nice results. It only takes about 1/2 hour and is ultra intense. I have been working routines like this for years between heavier routines and I knew they were effective but since I have gone higher reps with them I seem to be getting a lot more out of them. I feel like I am getting away with doing less and gaining just as well if not better. Like all routines though the effectiveness will wear out and I'll have to move on.

I am thinking slow reps next segment.

Not sure to be honest. I havent seen any logs on it. So I cant really comment. But I plan on it in the future.

Good to hear! Just getting me more excited about my results to come! Ive been thinking about adding in slow reps for some exercises.

**DreamWeaver** · 06-25-2008, 03:59 PM

Wait and do that next segment maybe, it's been my experience that it is tough to do slow reps and superset big rep ranges. I have done it but it kills.

I am going to do lower reps compound exercises for my slow routine. I was thinking a simple 3 second on the lift and the negative maybe 4 on the negative.

**metroba** · 06-25-2008, 04:04 PM

sounds good. Yeah I think Ill save the slow reps when I lower the reps down to say 6-8. Thanks for the help Dream!
