"Doing more exercise with less intensity,"
Arthur Jones believes, "has all but
destroyed the actual great value
of weight training. Something
must be done . . . and quickly."
The New Bodybuilding for
Old-School Results supplies
MUCH of that "something."
This is one of 93 photos of Andy McCutcheon that are used in The New High-Intensity Training to illustrate the recommended exercises.

I want to share with you my personal experience.I interesting I found that if I train in the morning upon waking on an empty stomach, so my performance is better than when I train in the afternoon after coming home from work.
Only pre-workout drink I drink AminoX (10g BCAA). For example, my performance in the morning (0800AM) in the leg press exercise is better for 2 reps (at the same rate of recurrence and weighting) than when I train in the afternoon 0300PM.

Do you have some similar experience?
Thanks.

I have always trained during my lunch hour , however due to changes at work I may be forced to train early morning in the near future. Im not looking forward to it , but Im sure the body/mind will adapt to most things.

Do you always drink that drink before workouts? What effects do you think it has?
I've always trained early morning, many times straight out of bed. Rare times I have trained later in the day, early evening or mid-night, has never felt the same. My preference is early morning when I am 100% fresh.

Testosterone I believe peaks in the am after a night of rest. Perhaps this adds to the extra boost when pushing through your workout.

makes sense-- test peaks in the am--morning wood? i train in the morning right out of bed. i believe i am stronger in the morning. i used to train after work at like 6pm. but now i train in the morning and i am not a morning person but i like the fact that i am moving around all day after a workout rather than working out eating dinner and then sleeping.
Yesterday I practiced my next workout on an empty stomach approximately around 0930 AM, as I wrote in a morning workout on an empty stomach I have more strength and I can concentrate better.
15-20 minutes before training I have included 10 grams of BCAAs (to prevent catabolism and to create conducive environment for muscle growth).
I practice once a week,always Saturday morning, the whole body:
1.single leg press
2.SLDL
3.straight arm standing cable pullover(I love this exercise)
4.machine chest press
5.barbell shrugs
6.toe press on leg press
I've always trained in the morning. A cup of coffee and at least half a liter of water is my pre-workout meal if you could call it. Its always worked well.

Only one series, with no rest between exercises.
Where do you get your bicep stimulation from?
Hello,
No, currently we do not have any direct exercises for arms and shoulders.
All exercises doing unilaterally.

Yea, I figured but I see the indirect work with the press giving you anterior delt and tri work and the pullover hitting your back and maybe your posterior delts and maybe chest and abs.
The lower body movements you have seem to cover everything, direct or indirectly.
Maybe I missed something, but why no bicep indirect or direct? It seems like it's the only thing you're missing in a full basic routine.

I'm not trying to criticize, just wondering....
