Hey guys, there was a man called chuck sipes who was a "powerbuilder"and he used a method called 1 to 10 to 1 with dips and pullups. It is meant to build mass and strength. It is do 1 dip rest 10 seconds 2 dips.etc then continue till 10 then back to 1. Does anyone know if this is effective? I mean it worked for chuck, he was a strong man.

Building mass is much more related to your diet in combination with exercise, not just the exercise. Low rest higher rep things such as this combined with a high calorie diet will certainly produce gains in size, but not as much strength. At least this is my understanding :mrgreen: maybe someone else on here can give a more precise answer

That's what we call a pyramid. It's basically a way of accumulating a lot of volume in the exercise you're doing. So, yes, it may help mass gains and it sure gives you some practice with the movement, making you better at it.
