How to Use X-Rep Training! I've been doing a lot of research lately on different workout programs the science and philosophy behind them. Quite a few programs have popped up over the past few decades. I've always used a standard split work out using mostly compound exercises to build muscle mass, doing 3-5 sets with 8-12 repetitions for each exercise. Choosing a lifting program can be difficult, and I spent a time looking into the pros and cons of each. The program that intrigued me the most was the High Intensity Training (hit), but it was quite a drastic change from the program I have always trusted. Then I came across X-Reps did I really didn't have to change my reach even around very much, I just had to add the extra set called the X-Reps.

X-Rep training was invented by Steve Holman and John Lawson. From what I understand x-rep training is basically going to failure on your last set and then adding 5 partial rep blasts in the x spot (near the turnaround point in an exercise). The quick partial reps cause the nervous system to fire the most amounts of muscle fibers at the position of flexion, which results in a huge jump in muscle fiber activation during a set. The end result is supposed to be larger gains.

I am going to implement x training starting my next workout which is tonight 5/5/2009. I will write my second part to this article in 30 days eight give my opinion and the results I achieved by adding X-one Reps to my training program. I'm trying to have a positive outlook because I would like to see some results like the founders.
