I got a question here.
For the ideal set/reps for maximal strength with hypertrophy he recomends 24-36. ie/ 8x3, 10x3, 7x4 etc etc.
So does this mean a TOTAL of 7 sets of 4 for that muscle?
So, say your doing chest, 4 x 4 for flat bench, 2 x 4 dips and 1 x 4 inclines (as an example)??
Or does he mean 7 x 4 for each movement??
so, 7 x 4 flat bench, 7 x 4 dips, 7 x 4 inclines etc etc??
Im guessing its the first option, but it seems like he ****s on a few programs like Max-OT (he doesnt say it explicitally, but it seems like he disagrees with those types of principles) so i just wanted clarification.
thanks.

OK thanks.
So basically, you'll just stick to the compounds and get all of your reps from that excercise (say squats for legs, deads for back, military press for shoulders etc all at 7x4, 8x3...) but each session your doing a different rep scheme??
Also, have you tried any of his programs??
If so, how were they?
Ive been doing just regular 4 day splits for about a year, so ive switched it up and just started Max-OT this week.
I figure ill do this for about 2 months, then im not sure what to do but im gonna try one of the programs which hits each muscle more than once every 6 days (like im doing now) and all of Chad's routines seem to do this, BUT i havent seen any body who has used one of his programs and what they thought of it.
Its either that or ill do the 5x5 which just lost the toss up with MaxOT as to what i was going to start this week.Last edited by One Breath; 05-21-2006 at 08:39 PM.

help a noob
hello guys,
Iam new to body building and I've been reading alot of post and websites. This is so complicated. Iam trying to come up with a workout plan for me.
Iam 20 yrs, about 6'-6'1 and 195 pounds. Iam trying to loose fat, get lean muscle and later on after 3-4 months of loosing fat I will bulk up.
So can someone please point me in the right direction to loose fat and gain lean muscle.
I been looking at:
1. HIIT program + full body workout
2. 10 x 3 For Fat Loss by Chad Waterbury
3. Isolate body parts and focus on seperate muscles.
I really don't know what to do and would be thankfull if someone pointed me in the right direction and help me to choose a good program for my needs.
Thank You

The Thing I want to know is what Chad himself looks like!?!? Is he as ripped and big and strong from all his programs or what?
Don't get me wrong I think that his programs are pretty innovative and I think I might try one out, but why does he have to rip on people like AST and their MAX-OT program! I have been doing the MAX-OT program for awhile now and I have made some great gains and I believe it does work! At the same time I want to try something new like one of Chad’s workouts but that doesn't mean he has to rip on other programs like One Breath said in an earlier post.

3. They both pretty much agree on reps per muscle group. Max-OT reccomends 6-9 sets for 4-6 reps pre muscle group. That is 24-54 reps per group and Chad reccomends 24-50 reps depending on your goals (strenght vs hypertrophy)
Here's where they differ.
1. Chad is a proponent of high frequency training, usually hitting each muscle group 3-4 times per week. Max-OT trains each muscle every 5-7 days.
2. Chad reccomends full body workouts or upper/lower splits. Max-OT works 1-2 groups per day.
Anyway, I like Chad's programs. I've used ABBH 1 and 2 with great success. If you're still making gains with Max-OT, I'd stick with it until it quit working though. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Thanks Stwey37! Chad’s approach seems very interesting! Could you tell me some more about what you like about his workout and the types of gains that you have made from them? I was thinking about doing ABBH 1 but I'm still not sure, could you tell me what you think the big difference between hitting each muscle group 3-4 times per week vs. 1-2 groups per day? I mean I know that the 3-4 times per week probably will get you somewhat stronger, but does it get you bigger? And what other benefits are there?
Thanks.

When I did ABBH 1 and 2 I ended gaining about 10 lbs. Some of it was fat, but it was mostly muscle, and that was on a lousy diet, little regular sleep, and a crazy ammount of stress on my body (I was deployed to Afghanistan, and I'm a machinegunner). My strength consistently went up. Chad's programs have built-in progression schemes so it keeps you moving forward logically. I can't find my log right now, but after doing those two programs, I switched to Westside for Skinny Bastards (which is probably my favorite program to use) for several months and then went back to another of Chad's programs Waterbury Method. By the end of the deployment, I had gone from a max squat of 335 to hitting 405 for 10 sets of 3. That was a hell of a day
One of the things I like about Chad's programs and high frequency training is how it conditions your body to handle a tremendous workload. It's a lot fo volume, but his programs are designed to build you up to it over time. One of the progressions he suggests is ABBH 1 followed by 2 and than Quattro Dynamo. Despite the volume, you still get in and out of the gym pretty quickly and do a lot of work while you're there. There were quite a few times I got a "Done already?" comment. I would just smile as they pump away with their 20 lb curls.
Since I train to improve performance first and for size and aesthetics second, I like how he trains movements. I really like the pairing of horizontal or vertical pressing movements with the appropriate pulling movement. I gotta agree with Arnold that having both your chest and back pumped at the same time is awesome. Leg days tend to be split in to quad dominant or hip dominant days. It's too much work to do otherwise.
As far as the multiple times per week vs once every 5-7 days deal, I feel that you get better muscle density by high frequency and very hard work. Look at examples such as gymnasts and rock climbers. They have very dense muscles and gain mass without really wanting to just because of constant use. If you've ever rolled someone that has grappled or wrestled all their life, they have a different kind of strength that can only be built up through years of constant use. It stands to reason that the same thing can be donw with weights. Another example is calves. My calves got huge without any real direct work because I was constantly hiking up and down mountains with a lot of weight on my back.
As far as getting stronger, if you get stronger and eat, you can get bigger. The stronger a muscle is, the greater a load you can subject it to. Who's going to be able to get bigger, someone benching 225x10 or someone that does 315x10?
Anyway, try it out if you're interested, and if you don't like it after giving it a fair shake move to something else.

I love Chad Wateruby so much(no homo), he has changed my life.
A huge bump to this thread.
Waterbury Method is amazing.
Do you think you could update the list? Maybe throw ABBH I and ABBH II to the top, given that they are the starter programs. All up to you.If life gives you AIDS, make lemonAIDS

out of those routine at the top what would be best as far as getting prepared for soccer? I have been working out since about january and have done pretty well and can see increases in everything especially when I hit the soccer field. I would like a full-body since that is what i will be switching to from a split since I have read split's are better for athletes. Thanks

Just in case anyone's interested in the HFT program, I tried it for a few months and was pretty happy with the results. I did begin to plateau at one point, though, so I'm taking some time off and then giving it another go later this month. Check out my journal for more info.

Bench Press - 250 ... 315
Squat - 275 ... 400
Trap Dead - 400 ... 480

Military Press - 150 ... 160
Pull-Up - BW+150 ... BW + 180
