48 hours break. you can do it MWF though you will need a few weeks before you're able to do it that often. i wouldn't (naturally) try doing another workout while doing the 300 - you'll never recover.
unless of course, you're doing the 300 workout on say monday, and then T-F is your "normal workout".

it works by promoting growth hormone, which ends up giving a recomp effect - slight muscle gain, with decent fat burning potential. it works well with HIIT.
my version of the 300 was
4x10
squats
deads
bench
pullups
floor wipers (youtube this)
clean and press
35 minutes maximum. i got down to 28 minutes once and wanted to toss my cookies.

It would be great for conditioning but I wouldn't expect much lbm gain from this. If this is your thing maybe look into cross fit. A lot of their WODs are similar to this.

Probably not much.
This sounds like death by lactic acid. Mega dosing Beta Alanine would be mandatory imo.

Cross fit will definitely get you into great shape. There are a few CF gyms around town, but I can't afford to train there. $120 a month :gay:

Mark Twight and his training at Gym jones is very very similar to crossfit. They follow many of the same modalities.
One doesn't need to go to an actual crossfit affiliate. That's what the WOD on the man page is for, but I do love being in the presence of true fire breathers though, but yes they can be a bit pricey for membership. Many offer free sessions on Saturday's.
Also, the 300 workout wasn't there routine, it was only one workout.
As for mass, it is not a bodybuilding routine, but yes on can gain mass.

as an advanced lifter, no way would this work. your upper chest, serratus, tri's, rear tri's, biceps, rhomboids, calves, lats would all shrink.
its good for a beginner though, or anyone that just wants to loose weight without loosing too much muscle.

* 25 pull-ups
* 50 deadlifts at 135 pounds
* 50 push-ups
* 50 box jumps with a 24-inch box
* 50 "floor wipers" (a core and shoulders exercise at 135 pounds)
* 50 "clean and press" at 36 pounds (a weight-lifting exercise)
* 25 more pull-ups -- for a total of 300 reps
thats what it is and thats what im doing. every senior at my school who has tried this workout while on a ph like mmv2 or mmv3 has gained serious muscle mass by doing this workout. So thats what im doing and i will be logging it; 300 workout on monday then upper body on thursday then legs and lower body on friday.

lol and i have looked all over the web for FLOOR WIPERS but i still have no idea what the **** those are. and the clean and press are just regular cleans right?

Well-known member
Here's a vid of floor wipers and yes the clean and press is a regular clean and then a press, not a clean and jerk. Also, you do realize that the 300 workout is more of a metcon workout right? Meaning it's designed to increase your metabolic conditioning i.e. endurance, stamina, core strength etc. It in of itself is not a bodybuilding routine.

its not hard except that u have to finish it under 30 minutes. and if its not bulking then why does everyone that did this workout become jacked? lol

its a great GH booster. 300 reps in 30 minutes sounds easy to you? give it a shot
because it burns fat like nothing else. additionally, boosting GH will put on some muscle, so that would explain the jacked look. none of them got huge though.
with regards to your friends, thats because they were on something.

I think he's also speaking about the movie. Anyone weighing around 165-170 is hardly jacked.

Forgot to post the vid to the floor wipers so here it is below.
Also, one needs to know that the guys in the movie who trained at Gym Jones did many many many other workouts, not just the 300. In fact they almost never repeated any workouts. They were not Arnolds size by any means. Like Rodja mentioned they prolly avg from 160-190 maybe a few were 200lbs the latter being the top end of the scale. They were strong and you could say ripped, but I'll say again if you think it's a premise for a bodybuilding routine it's not. The amounts of weight your moving is not substantial in this workout, but it fast paced which leads it back to a metcon workout. I guess I should ask what exactly your goals are?

didnt you post up for advice earlier stating that you wanted to get big for hockey and everyone told you roids and phs were a bad idea at 18? Well im still going to tell you that its a bad idea especially if you are still trying to gain crazy mass to gain weight for your supposed pro hockey career especially with a routine like this. Not to mention the sides of using a compound like that at such a young age.

lol, I remember the night I saw the movie. Everyone I went with was like " That was badazz!"; " That was awesome!" right after the movie ended.
I was like,.... "See ya'll later, Im going to go workout." haha

How did they build muscle on a high endurance workout?
Beats me, I never really watched the movie.

I saw some interview spotlight thing on HBO right before the movie came out. They mentioned the training and showed different clips of it. They had them doing the "Bigfoot" tire flips, and bungee sprints ( with a bungee cord). I remember Butler saying in between shots all over them would run over to some DB's and barbells and do some quick sets, then roll for a new shot, lol.
... they probably also had an endless supply of protein shakes.

Not all of their workouts are complete metcon workouts. They had strength biased workouts too incorporating heavy olympic and power lifts etc. Besides, truth be told Gerard Butler, the main guy spent something like 3 months with a venezuelan bodybuilder at the end of the training just prior to filming.

You have no business messing with PH's or PS's at 17 or 18... or even 19 or 20!
What you and the rest of your idiotic friends don't realize that you are blunting your natural growth once you use a PH... and well considering your body grows for many years after you're 18.... good luck staying the size of an 18 year old
As a whole this forum does not support individuals under the age of 21 using anabolic supplements
Do some research before you hurt yourself because Im sure none of your super muscular senior friends who got ripped using steroids did PCT either

lol yes cause 18 year olds cant look in the google searchbar and figure out what pct is. And this post wasn't about people coming on here and telling me not to take a ph. It was about the 300 workout. And thats a good question. why if its a high endurance workout to people look completly ripped?

It's not a "high endurance" workout as you put it. It's a metcon workout... metabolic conditioning. Since the 300 workout and Mark Twight follows similarly to the crossfit modality I will be referencing it...
The meta part of the word is for metabolic and that has to do with your energy systems. You have certainly heard and used the word metabolism and have a sense for slow and fast metabolisms. Some people walk by a bakery and gain two pounds and others shove everything they can get their hands on down their pie hole and never gain a pound. Metabolic - energy systems.
The con is easy, that's just conditioning and the contraction metcon is shorthand for the CrossFit methodology for improvement of the cardio vascular and cardio respiratory systems through a variety of functional exercises executed at high intensity. The program does wonders for much more than just your CV/CR systems but were just discussing metcon here.
Short energy systems course:
Creatine Phosphate or Phosphogen up to about 10 seconds of pedal to the metal, all out exertion. One rep max sort of thing.
At the other end of the spectrum is the Aerobic system which (assuming you are not working out as you read this) you are using right now. You can be in this energy system for the rest of your life. In an exercise sense it is at an effort level you can sustain for about 90 minutes before you exhaust your glycogen supply and have to refuel. How hard you can go is influenced directly by training and there are many endurance athletes who can do 5:30 miles and still be aerobic. I hate those people. The term LSD (Long Slow Distance) is the typical protocol for aerobic work where you are working at a low output for a long period of time.
The CrossFit arena is the Glycolytic energy system where you hammer your way to and through your lactate threshold at an effort level sustainable for only 2 minutes or so. The CF protocol has you change the demand on the failing musculature after some number of reps or time by moving to a new exercise while the CV/CR system is still being taxed. This allows for metabolic conditioning at a far more intense level than you could ever hope to achieve through a single mode of exercise because of the predictable onset of muscle failure at high levels of exertion.
Now, that being said, I obviously can not state with any certainty what your
"friends" did for their workouts, but they probably followed other methods than just doing the 300 workout. The 300 workout alone can give you a sense of strength, but not on the level of real lifting, it can help to lean you out, make you a more defined/cut, and extend your endurance and metcon abilities. However, it alone will not pack on the size and make a person look like Arnold. Remember just about any exercise done at high intensity can help to lean someone out and make them cut.
As far as the actors from the movie goes, one must keep a few things in mind...
1. They didn't just hire some random fat slobs and turn them into Spartans. The actors they hired already had a level of fitness and physique about them.
2. They did not do the 300 workout all the time nor was it their only workout.
3. They did follow a strength biased program as well as a metcon one, meaning they did lift heavy, I say again they did lift heavy. Which you do not do in the 300 workout.
4. They did follow or at least some followed a bodybuilding/weightlifting program as well for part of their training ie Gerard Butler training witha Venezuelan bodybuilder.
5. Their entire life was controlled and monitored during their training. Which means all they did was workout, eat, and sleep everyday.
Bottom line: As it is a good and fun workout, you will not get huge from the 300 workout, it should not be your only workout, no workout should be your only workout.
