Exclamation German Volume Training

I have been doing alot of reading on the German Volume Training. It is only about a 60 day training regime and I am debating on starting on it. I just wanted to get some advice from more experienced lifters on the program itself first. Or if someone has tried this program I would like to know how your results were. Thanks for the help.

I won't give you advice as an "experienced lifter," but as someone who used GVT for 60 days, I love it. The first week was kind of frusterating trying to really figure out a good starting weight, but once you're moving along in a pattern you see amazing gains, or at least I did. Best of luck, this was the key to my progress with squats, as well as with shoulders (dumbell military press)

-A man that can bench press three times his weight, yet squat less than one cannot call himself a 'Strongman.' Similarly, he who can squat the weight of a grown bull but cannot sprint across the street without an oxygen tank cannot call himself strong, much less a 'Strongman.' It is the combination of upper-, lower-, and windwork, the complete package, that when put together creates the 'Strongman.'

GVT is a great routine for advanced lifters, if you are not advanced then I suggest maybe using 8x8 or 7x7 instead of 10x10, everything remains the same as the original routine.
