Ik heb wel zin om het volgende los te gooien op me FB schema.
The Total-Body Plan
First and foremost, proper periodization planning is imperative. Without sufficient set/rep/load/rest parameters, even the best exercises won’t produce results. Therefore, I’ve devised the following periodization plan for unsurpassable hypertrophy increases:
Week 1
Workout 1
Sets: 3
Reps: 5
Rest: 60 seconds between sets
Load: Choose a weight that forces you to near-failure for the last rep of the last set.*
*This is the recommended load for all workouts.
Workout 2
Sets: 3
Reps: 8
Rest: 90 seconds between sets
Workout 3
Sets: 2
Reps: 15
Rest: 120 seconds between sets
Week 2
Perform with the same parameters as Week 1, but execute antagonist training for all six exercises (more on this later).
Week 3
Workout 1
Sets: 4
Reps: 5
Rest: 60 seconds between sets
Workout 2
Sets: 4
Reps: 8
Rest: 90 seconds between sets
Workout 3
Sets: 3
Reps: 15
Rest: 120 seconds between sets
Week 4
Perform the same parameters as Week 3, but execute antagonist training for all six exercises.
Week 5
Workout 1
Sets: 2
Reps: 18
Rest: 120 seconds between sets
Workout 2
Sets: 2
Reps: 8
Rest: 60 seconds between sets
Workout 3
Sets: 2
Reps: 12
Rest: 90 seconds between sets
Week 6
Perform the same parameters as Week 5, but execute antagonist training for all six exercises.
Week 7
Workout 1
Sets: 3
Reps: 18
Rest: 120 seconds between sets
Workout 2
Sets: 3
Reps: 8
Rest: 60 seconds between sets
Workout 3
Sets: 3
Reps: 12
Rest: 90 seconds between sets
Week 8
Perform the same parameters as Week 7, but execute antagonist training for all six exercises.
Gewoon 2 maandjes goed prikkelen kijken of ik verschil merk. Ook meer voor de variatie.

Explanation
1) Weeks 1,3,5 and 7 are to be performed with straight sets. In other words, perform one set of the first exercise, rest, perform your second set, and continue for all the recommended sets before moving on to the next exercise.
2) Weeks 2,4,6 and 8 are to be performed as antagonist training. Every session consists of six exercises so antagonist training is simple; all you have to do is perform three antagonist exercise groupings during each workout. For instance, perform quads/hams, chest/back, and biceps/triceps exercise pairings for the recommended sets and reps.
Example: Do one set for chest, then one for back, then another for chest, etc. Then move on to the next pairing, like quads/hams or biceps/triceps.
3) Choose four exercises under the list of compound exercises. Choose two exercises under the single-joint exercise list. Don't leave out any major muscle groups.
4) Constantly rotate exercises from each category. In other words, don’t always start your session with a chest/back pairing. You must keep rotating the body parts and exercises you begin each session with.
5) Don’t perform the same exercise for more than two weeks in a row. For example, if you performed a flat barbell bench press as your chest exercise for Weeks 1 and 2, you must switch to either incline, decline or dumbbell bench presses for another two weeks before switching again.
6) Increase the load 1.25 to 2.5% with each subsequent workout.
7) Perform all three workouts within a seven-day timeframe with 48-72 hours rest between workouts.
8) Be creative! I’m giving you endless options. Just be sure to pick four compound exercises and two single-joint exercises with each session. You can rotate exercises as much as you desire. All you have to do is follow the prescribed parameters.
