TEASER!!!
AGS-10 (All Growth Stimuli) Training Program
~Inspired by Dorian Yates' HIT principles~
By: Derek Charlebois
One all-out-set per exercise! That is the basic principle of Dorian Yates' HIT training system. Now what does "one all-out-set" mean? It means taking a set to the point where you cannot physically complete another rep. To achieve complete failure it may be necessary to throw in some drop-sets, rest-pause sets, forced reps, or partial reps. Dorian believed that after you have maximally stimulated the targeted muscle with one-all-out-set doing additional sets is not necessary because you have already created the stimulus for muscle growth. When you look at this concept from a scientific approach it makes perfect sense. A heavy, all-out-set to muscular failure is going to recruit a large number of motor units thereby overload a ton of muscle fibers. Overload is the primary stimulus for muscle growth. Doing another set after you just took the previous set to complete failure is not going to recruit additional muscle fibers and will most likely just fatigue you. In addition your performance during that next set will most likely suck this you gave it your all for the previous set!
After seeing some videos of Dorian explaining his training principles and seeing them in action I was instantly drawn to his method of training. Even before learning about Dorian's training I had often wondered if doing additional sets after taking the first set to failure was necessary. If my workout called for three sets of bench press I found myself holding back on the first two sets then taking the third set to failure. But would I have been better off just doing one set to failure? What leads to more growth doing a set of 6 reps, rest and do then a set of 5 reps, rest and then do a set of 4 reps or doing one all-out-set of 8 reps to complete failure? It is my current opinion and doing one all-out-set will lead to more growth. The first option of doing three sets leads to more total reps being completed (greater volume) but the second option of doing one all-out-set to failure allows you to push yourself harder, leading to a higher level of overload with less volume.
I decided to give Dorian's HIT program a go and fell in love with it. Knowing that I only had one set for each exercise allowed me to train harder and more intense than I had in a long time. I did the Dorian HIT routine exclusively for a long time. After a while, even though I was seeing results, I decided to try out some different routines. It is human nature to always think there are better options out there. After three months of trying various programs and setups I went back to what was working for me, the Dorian HIT program. After a few months of doing the Dorian HIT routine again human nature arose again and I began thinking of ways to make the Dorian HIT routine more effective. Unlike before where I tried completely different programs this time my goal was to build upon my current program and I think I found a technique that will enhance ones results!
Before I continue I want to point out that some people may do better on a volume-style routine than a HIT-style routine and vice versa. There is no "best" program for everyone, so I encourage everyone to try different routines and find what works best for them. One should note you need to give a routine enough time to produce results before dismissing it or praising it. It takes more than a week to get results, so don't label a routine as ineffective after just one week. I am by no means saying the below program is the BEST way to train, simply one effective strategy to stimulate muscle hypertrophy. In addition, the below program is for advanced trainees with at least 3-5 years of consistent weight training experience. If you haven't done so yet I HIGHLY recommend that you first complete at least two run-throughs of my Tri-Phase program before trying the AGS-10 program. There are two reasons I make these recommendations:
1. It takes time to develop the mind-muscle-connection and learn how to properly execute each and every exercise.
2. It takes time and experience for your body to be able to recruit additional motor units and muscle fibers and you therefore may not be able to train intense enough for one set to be sufficient to stimulate muscle hypertrophy.
With that said let's get into the AGS-10 program!

I'm in finishing off my 3rd week of Derek's Power/Hypertrophy program and the results are coming.
I'm looking forward to hitting the AGS-10 (All Growth Stimuli) Training Program once I finish up this program.
It was a good read Derek, keep up the great work!!

Hey Boss, what superset is better the antagonist or pre-exhaution? I cant tell what's the difference? I've heard guys like making fun of the pre-exhaution and saying that the antagonist is a lot better for building more muscles

I've been using Dorian's hit principles off and on for over a year now and don't plan on using anything else except on deloads/cruises. It really does make sense, after one intense set....what need is there to do any more? Like dorian said, if you hit a nail with a hammer and drive it all the way through, where is the logic of hitting the nail again? Alot of people shun this type of training with the 'more is better' mentality, yes....more is better, more intensity is.

AGS-10 (All Growth Stimuli) Training Program
~Inspired by Dorian Yates' HIT principles~
By: Derek Charlebois
One all-out-set per exercise! That is the basic principle of Dorian Yates' HIT training system. Now what does "one all-out-set" mean? It means taking a set to the point where you cannot physically complete another rep. To achieve complete failure it may be necessary to throw in some drop-sets, rest-pause sets, forced reps, or partial reps. Dorian believed that after you have maximally stimulated the targeted muscle with one-all-out-set doing additional sets is not necessary because you have already created the stimulus for muscle growth. When you look at this concept from a scientific approach it makes perfect sense. A heavy, all-out-set to muscular failure is going to recruit a large number of motor units thereby overload a ton of muscle fibers. Overload is the primary stimulus for muscle growth. Doing another set after you just took the previous set to complete failure is not going to recruit additional muscle fibers and will most likely just fatigue you. In addition your performance during that next set will most likely suck this you gave it your all for the previous set!
After seeing some videos of Dorian explaining his training principles and seeing them in action I was instantly drawn to his method of training. Even before learning about Dorian's training I had often wondered if doing additional sets after taking the first set to failure was necessary. If my workout called for three sets of bench press I found myself holding back on the first two sets then taking the third set to failure. But would I have been better off just doing one set to failure? What leads to more growth doing a set of 6 reps, rest and do then a set of 5 reps, rest and then do a set of 4 reps or doing one all-out-set of 8 reps to complete failure? It is my current opinion and doing one all-out-set will lead to more growth. The first option of doing three sets leads to more total reps being completed (greater volume) but the second option of doing one all-out-set to failure allows you to push yourself harder, leading to a higher level of overload with less volume.
I decided to give Dorian's HIT program a go and fell in love with it. Knowing that I only had one set for each exercise allowed me to train harder and more intense than I had in a long time. I did the Dorian HIT routine exclusively for a long time. After a while, even though I was seeing results, I decided to try out some different routines. It is human nature to always think there are better options out there. After three months of trying various programs and setups I went back to what was working for me, the Dorian HIT program. After a few months of doing the Dorian HIT routine again human nature arose again and I began thinking of ways to make the Dorian HIT routine more effective. Unlike before where I tried completely different programs this time my goal was to build upon my current program and I think I found a technique that will enhance ones results!
Before I continue I want to point out that some people may do better on a volume-style routine than a HIT-style routine and vice versa. There is no "best" program for everyone, so I encourage everyone to try different routines and find what works best for them. One should note you need to give a routine enough time to produce results before dismissing it or praising it. It takes more than a week to get results, so don't label a routine as ineffective after just one week. I am by no means saying the below program is the BEST way to train, simply one effective strategy to stimulate muscle hypertrophy. In addition, the below program is for advanced trainees with at least 3-5 years of consistent weight training experience. If you haven't done so yet I HIGHLY recommend that you first complete at least two run-throughs of my Tri-Phase program before trying the AGS-10 program. There are two reasons I make these recommendations:
1. It takes time to develop the mind-muscle-connection and learn how to properly execute each and every exercise.
2. It takes time and experience for your body to be able to recruit additional motor units and muscle fibers and you therefore may not be able to train intense enough for one set to be sufficient to stimulate muscle hypertrophy.
With that said let's get into the AGS-10 program!

MORE! MORE!! How many days per week is it?

A Time to GROW!
This is the time to grow. I have stabilized at 200lbs right now and am pretty much in three weeks out shape. I feel great, and I love the way that I look, but now is the time to really start packing on some LEAN mass and to do that, this kid is going to have to eat. I want to take the next eight weeks to gain as much lean mass as possible until around January 5. At that point, I will evaluate where I am at and either keep bulking or maintain and let my body settle in to the new weight and accept it as the norm.
I am aiming for seven to nine meals per day. Seven minimum, nine if I can get them all in. My macronutrient goals will be per meal:
50 grams protein
15 grams fat
Starting at two meals per day, I will be throwing in 30g carbs from oatmeal or sweet potato. I would like to build this up to all meals as time goes on and I stay lean. My veggie intake will also be super high with the four meals of Solution 5 per day. On other meals, I will try and get in at least 2-3 servings of broccoli. As I have seen with my recent unexlplainable fat loss and hardness since adding in Solution 5 which has the equivalent of 10 servings of fruits and vegetables everytime I replace a meal with it, veggies are magical. I will also try to add two servings of fruit such as blueberries or an apple per day. I will start listing all of this out in my meal plans as I haven't been listing fruits or veggies lately since they are a constant.
My supplement plan has changed. Scivation has brought on a VERY intelligent, experienced and well known Research and Development person to work alongside Chuck and Derek. I will announce who this is later. All that I will say is that now it is not a question that we have the most talented and educated R and D department in the industry. You guys will be shocked. But back to me. I will be doing a different workout nutrition scheme as a test dummy. We will be launching a NEW category of supplements for this, but for now I will be taking 2 caps Dialene 4x stacked with 2 caps of Primaforce 1,3 dimethyl pre workout. I will then of course slam Xtend during and for time being, I will be taking Vasocharge PWO. The idea is to get the creatines, beta alanine and NO enhancers PWO to promote anabolism. As for the fat burner PreWO, this will enhance the fat use for energy dramatically and also get me hyped! The goal is to burn fat and utilize that fat energy during WO and drink Xtend to enhance that fat loss and lean mass gain during WO, then get those gadgets in my system to grow PWO. It is a theory based on science, and it will be fun to test it!
My training will shift from a back focus to a quad focus for the next 4-6 weeks. I need this sweep to come up dramatically. I think that with my action plan, this WILL happen. I am aiming for 20lbs this gain phase of mostly lean mass. I am also aiming for above 90 percent lean mass gain.
This is gametime. Nationals is in two weeks and I am sitting this one out. It also signals that I have ONLY two years to get ready for my appearance at Nationals. Enough maintaining at 200 and being super lean. Time to grow and STAY super lean with Scivation Diet Principles and supplement strategies and oh yeah, training systems.
Grow time!!

Alright just read your plan. Seems smart as hell! I wish I was able to gain 20lbs during 8 weeks on mostly lean muscle mass. I'm thinking of doing what you're doing right now but I need Solution 5. When I'm going to be in Florida I'll order 7-10 tubs of Solution 5.
Sounds good to me! Also fats are an amazing source of energy. I'm willing to do this, moderate fats, low carbs, high protein but i'd have to kick it with some cardio 2-3 times a week. Do you increase your fat intake on cardio days?

No.
This is why I am gradually adding in calories. I will add some fat, but a lot? You should know me better than that!

well, you have already taken 3 big steps in the right direction!
Hope you enjoy the Solution 5 - it's going to make whatever nutrition plan D sets up for you even more simple!

My calories and fat intake stay pretty constant regardless of training but I am not dieting, so I will be a bit more free than when getting ready for a show.

Alright alright.
But I need to go into high fats or high carbs, I can't do both if not I will just get fat? I heard this somewhere, don't know if it's right.

You heard wrong. Calories make you fat, not some magical macronutrient fat fiesta.
Why not just join Team Scivation and let us do the hard work for you?
