5 Till' You Die Workout

5 Till you Die Workout Routine

5 TILL YOU DIE

A big part of seeing results, especially when it comes to building muscle, is maintaining a high level of intensity in the gym. Pre-workouts, such as ONNX definitely help boost intensity levels, but it's about how you spend your time in the weight room that will reflect on your results.

Try this '5 TILL YOU DIE' technique during your next training session. The pump it will deliver is worth the pain!

THE TECHNIQUE

Incorporate the '5 till you die' technique as the last few movements of your workout. This routine can be used for virtually any muscle group or movement, but to make things easier, let's explain the routine using a Chest Press machine as an example:

Load up the machine with a weight that's about 60% of your 1 rep max (or a weight you could do for 12-14 reps). Make sure you're not going too light, or you won't get the effectiveness of this movement.

Start the first set by doing 5 reps. Take a rest for (that's right, you guessed it) 5 seconds. Do another 5 reps, rest for 5 seconds. And another. And Another. Repeat this cycle until you can no longer do 5 reps with good form. Congratulations, you've now earned yourself a 10 second rest! After the 10 second break, now do 4 reps, rest for 5 seconds. Then another. Again, repeat this cycle until you are now longer able to complete 4 reps with good form. Take another 10 second break. You probably now have an idea of the rest. Keep up with the intervals until you get all the way down to 1 rep.

Don't cheat yourself! Make sure you don't take your 10 second break until your muscles won't allow you to complete all of the reps.

THE REWARD

By now your muscles should pumped and throbbing with blood and nutrients. Embrace the pain and live to reap the reward.
