Hello everyone.
I’m planning to start the OVT program, but i have 1 question for it.
The superset with the 1 arm row and the single leg back extension confuses me. Should i do it 5 times each legs? then i do the exercise 10 times?
Can someone clear this up for me?
My english is not so great, but i’am from the netherlands. Will do my best.
Thnx
You are referring to this program, correct?
My understanding is this: for each of those movements (1 arm rowing & 1-leg back extension), you will do the listed number of reps (5) on each side.
So on the chest & back day, do 5 lat pulldowns, then 5 rows on each arms, then rest. Repeat four more time.
On the legs and abs day, 5 back extensions with each leg, then 5 leg curls, then rest. Repeat four more times.
So yes, for each movement, you techincally are doing a set of 10, but it’s really 5 per side.
Yes. I was reffering to thad program.
Thanks alot for your reply! I’m looking forward to begin. Read alot of good things about the program.
Thanks again
Yeah no problem.
If you don’t mind me asking, what part of the Netherlands are you from? I used to live in Germany and spent a decent amount of time in Holland. Mostly Amsterdam but I sometimes went to smaller towns.
Thibs thinking and programs have moved on a lot since 15 years ago when that came out. Run OVT for like a 6 week blast/till feel burned out and then do something like Layers or Complete power look
Ok, thank you for your advice. did you gained muscle on the OVT program?
A small amount, but also pissed off my elbows and shoulders by doing stuff like skullcrushers for 5x5. Was young, but found endless 5x5s pretty damn boring also
