Goede informatie Aldo.
Ik ben trots op je.

Linkjes zouden ideaal zijn, maar zouden ze ook de zoekfunctie niet eens kunnen verbeteren?
Die is nu echt bagger.

Mooi overzicht. Ik denk wel dat vooral beginners door al die informatie door de bomen het bos niet meer zien. Ik ben zelf een voorstander van een eigen schema maken omdat ieder lichaam en lichaamsdeel een bepaalde stimulans nodig heeft om te groeien, en dat is voor iedereen anders.

One of the reasons the name Vince Gironda is as popular as ever in bodybuilding articles is that the man had ideas that were truly revolutionary and way ahead of their time. 50 years before Charles Poliquin wrote about “German volume training” and new workout templates such as “FST-7″ appeared on the scene, Vince was advocating the benefits of volume training for maximum hypertrophy.Vince was known for his unusual training methods. Some of his unique exercises included the bench press to the neck, the sternum chin up (touching the chest to the bar), “drag” curls and sissy squats with what he called a “Burlesque Bump.” His training systems included 15 sets of 4, 3 sets of 12, 6 sets of 6, 10 sets of 10 and 4 exercises in a giant set – one for each “side” of the muscle. Of all Vince’s techniques, the 8 sets of 8 program was his favorite for the advanced bodybuilder. “I have a definite preference for the 8 X 8 system of sets and reps,” wrote Vince. “I come back to this high intensity “honest workout” more often than any other for maximizing muscle fiber growth in the quickest possible time for the advanced bodybuilder.”
8 sets of 8 might be the most effective set and rep combination ever developed for rapidly building muscle fiber size while simultaneously shedding body fat. Vince called it the “honest workout ” because of the pure muscle fiber size that can be achieved on it. “Keep to 8 X 8 and your muscle fiber will plump out, giving you a solid mass of muscle density as a result,” promised Vince. 8 sets of 8 is so effective that as a 20 year old novice competitive bodybuilder, I was able to gain 17 pounds of muscle drug-free (contest weight from one show to the next) in under nine months using this system. To this day, I still use the 8 sets of 8 system whenever I need a “shock program” to bring up a lagging body part. Vince warned that this set and rep combination is not for beginners: “You have to build up to the stage where you can benefit from this extremely advanced form of training. I doubt if anyone with less than two years of training experience could benefit from this method.”
How it Works

8 sets of 8 is a high volume, fast tempo, size building workout. It is not designed for strength development – it’s purely for bodybuilding or “cosmetic” improvements. 8 sets of 8 will also help you get leaner. The short rest intervals stress the cardiovascular system to the point where calories are burned, the metabolism is stimulated, hormones are stirred up and fat is melted away. Here’s how it works: You will select three or four exercises per muscle group and perform 8 sets of 8 on each exercise. Yes – that’s 24 to 32 sets per body part! You will work two or three muscle groups per session and rest only 15 to 30 seconds between sets. Each workout will be completed in approximately 45 minutes and never more than 60 minutes.
Although this apparently excessive volume might seem reminiscent of the Steve Michalik and John Defendis “Intensity or Insanity” style of training – it’s NOT the same thing. These are not two or three hour marathon workouts. You are completing this routine in under an hour. The reason this doesn’t constitute overtraining is because you’re not exceeding the workout duration that begins having a negative effect on recovery and anabolic hormones. You are simply overloading the muscles by condensing more training into less time. Why it works: More work in less time = higher intensity and bigger muscles
Many people are under the impression that the only way to make a muscle larger is to increase the amount of weight you use. This is not true. Overload is an absolute requirement to build muscle, but the overload can come in more ways than one. Progressively adding weight may be one of the best ways to provide an overload, but it’s not the only way. Vince was all in favor of adding weight to the bar, (provided good form was maintained), but he believed that performing more work in less time was a better method of overload. The Iron Guru’s advice: “To acquire larger muscles you must increase the intensity of work done within a given time.
This means minimum rest between sets. Push yourself. I feel workouts should be timed and you should constantly strive to shorten the time it takes to get through your routine. This is another form of progressive resistance, and is more important than raising your weights. This principle of overload explains why sprinters have bigger muscles than distance runners. Although it’s more work to run a mile than it is to run 100 yards, the sprinter is doing more work per second. Consequently, his muscles will become larger.”
Why Use 8 Sets Of 8 Instead Of “Conventional” Training?

The most popular method of training for advanced bodybuilders is to choose between two and four exercises per muscle group and perform three or four sets of 6-12 reps on each exercise. The rest intervals range from 60 seconds to four minutes, depending on the goal. So why bother with such an “outrageous” program as 8 sets of 8?
The answer is because this type of “honest,” high volume, fast tempo training will be a complete shock to your body, especially in the beginning when you are unaccustomed to it. An advanced bodybuilder will adapt to any training program within a matter of months and often within just weeks. Once adaptation occurs, you must seek out new types of stress to coax your muscles into continued growth. Although Vince did not advocate over-training in any way, shape or form, he did advocate using “muscle confusion” for stimulating gains, even if this meant, “temporarily overtraining.” 8 sets of 8 is simply an unusual and effective method of overload and muscle confusion. Obviously, this program is not intended for constant use. It’s a “shock routine” you can use for brief periods to kick-start a new growth spurt when you need it most. After completing a cycle of 8 sets of 8, you can go back to more conventional methods.
How long should you use 8 sets of 8? As long as it keeps working. Another advantage of 8 sets of 8 is that it can be used to work around an injury. Heavy training with 5-6 rep maxes is impossible when you’re babying a strain, pull or soft tissue injury. But you can do 8 sets of 8 because you get such an “honest” workout with a fraction of your usual weight. 8 sets of 8 is a fantastic method for pre-contest definition training because 50-60 sets in under an hour is decidedly aerobic. You can easily count each
weight training session as a cardio workout. Fast-metabolism types may not even need any other aerobic work while using 8 sets of 8.
How much rest between sets?

Vince advocated “a very businesslike approach towards tempo.” He said that using the 8 sets of 8 format is not enough to ensure muscle gains. What’s more important is the speed with which you get through the program. “Minimum rest between sets is a must,” said the master. When Vince was training Mohamed Makkawy for the Olympia, he had Mohammed conditioned to the point of doing 8 sets in as little as 5 minutes or less. Your goal is to reduce your rest intervals to 30 seconds or less, ultimately cutting them down to just 15-20 seconds between each set.
Once your conditioning has adjusted to the demands, you’ll need just five to ten deep breaths between each set, then it’s on to the next set. If your tempo on each exercise is 2-0-2-0 (2 second eccentric, no pauses and two second concentric), then each rep will take you four seconds. Eight reps per set means that each set will take you 32 seconds. With a 15-20 second rest interval, 24 sets will take only 18 to 21 minutes to complete and 32 sets will take 25 to 28 minutes to complete.
Tempo

The proper tempo combined with the correct resistance is the key to the success of this program. Vince defined optimal tempo as “the evenly spaced sets (time-wise) without any distractions and complete concentration on when to pick up the next weight and do the next set.” This means no magazine reading, no walking around the gym, no gossiping, no changing the CD in your Walkman, and no – not even going to the bathroom. This program requires 100% total concentration.
If you get interrupted or distracted, you might as well pack up your gym bag and go home. Do not put the dumbbells down between sets. Rest them on your knees, but don’t put them down or re-rack them. Also, don’t release the bar between sets; rack it, but keep your hands on it. If you’re using straps, don’t unwrap them. Stay on the bench or machine until all 8 sets of 8 are completed. Take no rest between body parts. When you finish the last exercise for the first muscle group, move directly into the first exercise for the next muscle group. By the way, to follow these tempo guidelines means you’ll have to ditch your training partner. This program must be done alone.
How much weight?

Using 15-20 second rest intervals will limit the amount of weight you can use, but that’s ok. Initially, there will be a large drop in your normal training poundages. Most people will need to reduce their normal 8 rep max by about 40% to successfully complete 8 sets with such brief rest intervals. For example, if you normally perform dumbbell flyes with 55 pounds for 8 reps with a 60 – 90 second rest interval, you’re going to have to reduce your weight to about 35 pounds to successfully complete 8 sets of 8 with 15-30 second rest intervals. You become more conditioned, it will amaze you how much weight you will be able to build back up to while maintaining the short rest interval.
Amazingly, you may even get close to your original poundage. At this point, some serious growth will begin to occur. Proper weight selection is critical. The first workout should be made intentionally easy. If you attempt too much weight too quickly, you won’t be able to complete 8 reps on the last several sets nor will you be allowing room for progression over a period of weeks. Vince cautioned that the same weight for all eight sets is imperative. If you fail on the sixth or seventh rep on the last set or two, that’s fine, but if your reps drop below 8 by your 4th or 5th set, the weight you selected is too heavy.
Intensity: “Training Over your head”

Most of your sets will not be taken to failure, and none of them will be taken beyond failure. On your last set or two of each exercise, it’s normal to fail at the 6th or 7th rep. When you can easily complete a full 8 sets of 8 reps, then increase the weight on the next workout. Although you won’t be reaching failure on most of your sets, make no mistake – this is some of the most difficult training you will ever undertake. Training large muscle groups and doing multi-joint free weight exercises are especially difficult. You will face the burn of local muscle fatigue, the challenge of oxygen debt and the difficulty of maintaining mental concentration. 8 sets of 8 is a test of strength, endurance and mental toughness. Gironda called this “training over your head.” At times, you won’t be sure if you can go on, but once you start, you cannot stop.
How Many Sets & Exercises

As a general rule, Vince suggested limiting your total sets to no more than 12-15 per body part. He said that if you can’t get a workout in 12 sets, you’re not concentrating properly. However, he also said there are certain occasions where this rule could be broken. The 8 sets of 8 program for the advanced bodybuilder is one of them. As far as how many exercises, Vince recommend anywhere from one to four exercises per muscle group, depending on the circumstances. For this particular variation of the program, you will perform 8 sets of 8 reps on two to four exercises per body part. The number of exercises per body part will also depend on what type of split routine you choose. The most important factor is to do only as many exercises as you can fit into the 45 minute time limit.
What Type of Split Routine?

Vince advocated different types of split routines for various purposes. Sometimes he had his pupils train as often as six days in a row with each muscle group being worked three times per week! More often, Vince was partial to routines split two or three ways so that each muscle group was trained twice per week. He advised advanced bodybuilders to use a three-day split with 72 hours of recuperation between maximum-intensity workouts. These days it’s more popular to split a routine four or even five ways. With a four or five day split, each muscle group is worked once every five to seven days.
If Vince were around today, he would surely give me a verbal beating for saying this, but I’ve discovered that 8 sets of 8 works with nearly any split routine whether you work each muscle group once a week or twice a week. The important thing is to adjust your volume so you can observe the tempo and time limit rules. If you have a split routine that works well for you, by all means stay with it.
For example, if you’re on the popular four-day split where you train two days on, one day off, you’ll get great results on 8 sets of 8. With this type of split, you can perform seven or eight exercises for 8 sets of 8 reps and fit it all inside of forty-five minutes. If you are on a two or three day split as Vince often recommended, you may have time for only one or two exercises per muscle group, each performed for 8 sets of 8. The sample routine I’ve outlined is based on a four day split.

In Conclusion
8 sets of 8 is a little known and very misunderstood program. This is partly because Vince never explained it clearly in great detail- not even in his famous mail order courses. Even when fully understood, most people will never even attempt this type of training because it seems like too much volume and the weights seem too light to get anything out of it. Too bad for them! The real reason most people never finish a full cycle of 8 sets of 8 is because it’s very demanding! 8 sets of 8 reps performed in five minutes for a large muscle group can test the grit of the toughest bodybuilder.
You don’t have to agree with all of Vince’s teachings to use this program. It’s natural to resist concepts that are so radical. Vince was quite used to it. Nearly all of Vince’s ideas met with a certain degree of skepticism initially, yet eventually – sometimes two or three decades later – many of his methods became accepted as standard bodybuilding truths.
When questioned, Vince advised, “If in doubt, try these concepts and try others. Results count. Examine. Test. Then make up your own mind. The secret to success is to believe that the course I give will work and it will. If you have doubts, you will find it won’t work.” Regardless of whether you think Vince was the greatest trainer of all time or just an old crank with weird ideas, I urge you to give this “honest workout” an “honest” try.”

Alhoewel er hier een 8x8 split staat beschreven kan dit ook voor fullbody, ub/lb en ppl routines gebruikt worden.
