Monster Set
A Monster Set is when, after performing an exercise for one body part,
instead of resting, you immediately perform an exercise for another body
part. The other body part should be one that was not used while exercising
the first body part. For example: chest and biceps, or quadriceps and
hamstrings.
Monster Sets are combined with Decline or Pause Sets so
you can get a tremendously effective workout done in a very short amount
of time. For example, after you perform a Pause Set with the Incline Fly
Press for your chest, you can immediately begin performing a Decline Set
with Hammer Curls for your biceps.
Cycle Set (1 Cycle = 3–6 Minutes)
To perform a Cycle Set, you set up 3–6 exercises for the same or
different body parts. As soon as you are done performing one exercise
until failure, you immediately go to the next . . . and then the next.
Continue going around the circuit 3 or 4 times.
For example, set up an exercise for quadriceps, an
exercise for hamstrings, and an exercise for calves, then do 1 quadriceps
exercise then 1 hamstring exercise then 1 calf exercise. Repeat this
circuit 3–4 times.
You can also set up 3 exercises for only 1 body part and
go around the circuit that way 2–4 times.
Help Reps
Help Reps can be used with any Intensity set. A Help Rep is performed when
a helper or “spotter” stands near you during your set, and when you
reach failure they help you to perform 1–2 more repetitions.
