Have you stopped growing? Or are you just bored with your
current program? Well, Tim Scheett may very well have the answer. Tri-Sets.
Tri-Sets provide the lifter with a very specific set of
exercises that ramp up the intensity of the workout on a particular muscle
group.
For example on backday you would:
Tri-Set 5 10 20
Bent-over barbell row 5
Pulldown 10
Straight-arm pulldown 20
Pulldown 10
Straight-arm pulldown 20
Your rest period should only be long enough to move to
the next exercise.
The first exercise after a good warm up should be a heavy
compound movement. The second exercise should be heavy enough to make you work
through a hypertrophy rep range. The final exercise should be 20+ and a single
joint isolation move.
Do 2 – 3 rounds of a Tri-Set and feel the new gains.
