Ok, here is what I’ll do. Essentially, the SEAL workout was like a 12 page pamphlet that came w/ Serious Growth III Big Beyond Belief. My friend let me borrow both a few years ago, so I photocopied the SEAL workout. I’ll try to get it scanned w/i the next few days. Then a buddy of mine is going to let me post it on his web site for the time being, as I don’t have one myself. Basically there is some theory and explanation as to the hows and whys behind the workout and then there are some charts to follow. I’ll let you guys know when it gets put up and then I’ll post the link.
Steve, thanks for the reply. I would appreciate that info as soon as possible seeing as how I will be starting a new program next week. Thanks again. DMZ
Apeshit, what I’m talking about is muscle growth, maybe one day you will understand but right now I guess you don’t,my point is simple (so maybe you can understand) lets take two athletes, one does squats and makes good gains, the other one does not lift at all but he plays ball all day everyday, if they both have the same genetics which one will have more hops, simple the one who jumps all the time(plays all the time) I don’t know whats so hard to understand, these programs are NOT again NOT for muscle gain they ARE for athletic performance ( for which they have value) tell me the last olympic lifter that you thought had muscle size = to his “strength” part of it is genetics the other part is how they train, if volume works then why doesn’t my barber have 18" forearms? he has cut hair hundreds of x’s, but you would probably get tired trying to keep up w/him why? 'cause he is more profficient at it ( not stronger just more profficient)
Here is the link for my friend’s page where we put up the SEAL Workout link. http://jeff.wwti.com/seal_workout
There are two versions of each page, one for viewing on screen and a high res. 300dpi version that can be used to print a better quality page. Later, Steve
Heytey, I think the goal of this program(again, something that isn’t mentioned in it) is to shoot for a higher workload. An example would be to go for more and more reps each week, by increases in workout frequency or just added sets to the same workouts. After this, I think they would also decrease rest times to add intensity or to perform more work over a given period of time. Then, the cycle would begin again, only this time, less sets, more rest and more weight. The cycle starts again with the new weight and the rest times decrease while the sets increase. I think that would be the premise. Of course, training this way to failure would be a nightmare. It would simply be too much for recovery ability. Handling heavy weight is important, but not so heavy that it causes failure to occur. Of course, a barber wouldn’t even use weight that would cause any adaption whatsoever except for having to maybe hold his arm up for long periods of time when cutting hair. If workload wasn’t increased in this program, then no, it wouldn’t work because it would have the individual hit the wall. But, if the program works up to a greater workload and then cycles this with a lesser workload and avoids chronic overtraining, it will work.
