So doing the same routine daily or twice a day would be detrimental?

Will not produce as you may think. Take a good 48 to 92 hours and results will be scary. Blitz

How often does one do the program? I reviewed the documents and do see it. Does one do all 8 exercises 3 days a week?

Blitz,

The limitations of standard cable machines are what I have been experiencing.

How about some free-weight exercises that in your experience work well with your system?

I'm re-habbing my shoulder right now after thowing it out throwing the shot-put (like an idiot) coaching my kids track team ... but when I was going balls-out using your program to the best that the machines at the gym allowed I was VERY happy with the results.

all the best,

abc

Free weights

Free weights work well but care in exercise design requires LOG and ensuring full range of motion.
Free weights are fine when exercises are designed with most of the motion IN the line of gravity. A good trainer will be able to design the exercises. The advantage of free weights is the "plyometric" effect of the hyper speed reps (the deceleration and acceleration of each rep. Works fine!!
This previous statement says "yes" to free weights.
Here are some pointers:
1. Blitzing is Blitzing.
2. Design circuits the same (6 to 8 exercises)
3. Ensure each exercise is positioned as to provide the most of the weight's "travel" is in the Line Of Gravity (LOG).
4. The "plyometric" effect is a good advantage of free weights and introduced into the exercises by the hyper speed reps (the deceleration and acceleration of each rep).
5. Pay strict attention to the "preformance Points" I sent you.
6. 20% increses in weight after "goal Reps" are met in 3 circuits of each exercise as it happens.
7. A modification to free weight use is to recalculate your Starting weight to 1/4th of your 1 RM as opposed to 1/3rd. This should decrease problems created be #4.
May the Force be with You. Blitzzz

Blitzzz,

I've been reading the thread and have a question.

Can you define in the Line of Gravity? I believe I know what this means, but want to make sure I have the right idea.

Thanks,

Milon
