Rik de Kort Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 It gets a bit more volume. Could be handy in busting plateaus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matth Challoner Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Or it could lead to overtraining if your not carefull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blairbob Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Looks just like some extra assistance work using easier progressions. Like the assistance exercises in 531. Might help in getting swoller. Hypertrophic work in that 8-12 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleowarrior Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Thanks guys.That makes sense I did 531 for about 3 years back in the power lifting days so must be why the volume reals right to me. I feel fine with that amount of volume, Its been hard going from weight training were I used to aim to have the most intense soreness the next day, since I have been on BTGB for once have been injury free , so my main concern was over training. Thanks for the advise, I think i will continue with the extra sets. and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
