This system of training is for natural intermediate and advanced bodybuilders only. It is a well established fact that the body needs anywhere from 24 to as many as 72 hours of total rest and recuperative sleep between workouts for muscle restoration and growth to take place. During a particular workout session you don’t have to save your energy for other muscle groups, so it is much easier to motivate yourself to train with more intensity.

Before Arnold, cinematically and in bodybuilding annals, there was Steve Reeves. With the breathtaking lines and classic style, the man took his genetic blueprint and raced away with it, creating arguably the most impressive physique in the history of the planet. No, not the biggest (though he had great size), and no, not the most ripped (though he had considerable definition), but certainly as greatly and carefully proportioned, shaped and attended a physique as we’ve ever seen. You might get a vastly better physique by incorporating something of the Reeves approach to training. Not that you’ll be Reeves--you don’t get Larry Scott’s arms by doing his arm workout, but in the case of Reeves-style training, your chances are very good that you’ll be on the road to achieving your own best physique, with your own individual style. Sound good? Let’s go.
