ve been doing in the gym. All too often, guys wanting to build muscle will keep doing the same thing hoping for a different result-and it never comes. In order to gain muscle you need to subject your body to stresses it isn-t already accommodated to. The forced 40 technique is a muscle building protocol that works on even the most stubborn muscle groups. To build muscle with this technique you choose a weight that causes you to fail in the 8 rep range for a particular exercise. For example, with chest a muscle group that I am beginning to focus on a bit more to build additional size-I chose the incline dumbbell bench press. Begin by performing a set to failure. With a rest period limited to no more than 60 seconds, perform another set, once again taking it to failure. Likely you will find that you will not be able to get the full 8 reps again. That is ok. Your goal is simply to keep performing sets with a maximum of 1 minute rest between them until all of your 40 reps are completed. The effectiveness of this muscle gaining technique lies in the fact that you are adding slightly more rep volume using reps that are of high enough intensity to build muscle. People confuse volume training with just that, pure volume. That said, unless that volume is of sufficient intensity you will never be able to build muscle since it lacks the overload required to do that. Gaining muscle fast is not something you can do with poor nutrition and a lack of recovery. You have to realize that in order to build muscle, you have to pay attention to all three components at all times. If your diet is filled with nonproductive calories you will not build muscle. You have to feed your muscles with the proper nutrients needed to support the regeneration of muscle and lean tissue that gets damaged during your workouts. Supplementation can definitely assist you in this cause by providing you with proper nutrients in the proper ratios on a regular basis and the ultimate convenience. If you have been wanting to gain muscle but weren-t sure what type of workouts were needed, then head to and

Hey man! Just wanted to say that I tried this for the first time tonight at the gym. I did 3 different chest exercises using this technique.
Flat dumbbell press
Flys
Incline press.
By the time I was on the incline press I was more tired than I've ever been before. I stayed strict with the 60 second rest between sets and gave myself about 3/4 mins to recover between exercises. It really was the hardest I'd worked my chest. Setting that goal of 40 with only 60 seconds rest is just so tough.
Thank you for your help. This will now be a regular in all my workouts.

Hi Jeff
I would like to see a video on doing sets at the same weight to failure or is better to do increasing weight on each set from the previous week. When I do the latter, I find on my last set I fall short of the max reps I can do if I keep the weight the same.
I do 12/10/8 with increasing but struggle to get to the 8 on the last rep or 10/10/8 with the same weight for first 2 and then increase the weight on the last rep.
Thanks
Bryan

Thank you Jeff for always giving us good training tips and not hoarding and hustling them for your paid training system. It really adds to your integrity and credibility and shows your confidence in your training system, (unlike some other guys without the depth of knowledge or confidence in themselves)

I don't pay much attention to the time between sets and wouldn't be surprised if I was resting for 2 mins or more, but I started out with a medium weight and did 12 reps, the second set 8 reps with a higher weight, then went even higher and did 3 sets of 5 reps on it. Hope that adds both strength and mass

Great video, though I have a question.
Do you stay with the same weight that causes you to have an 8 rep max for all 40 reps? Or are you supposed to drop the weight by 5 or so pounds just so you can get there?
Basically, I'm asking how do I pick my weight do do my -forced 40-?

Another great video from the most credable guy on the net, cheers Jeff. Do you have any more quick nutrition tips like the cinnamon one or a glass of water on waking they seemed to both work very well for me for such a simple thing, thanks again.

You have no idea how nice this is to see. I do full range of motion on everything, and I go down slow, and up a little faster, but slower, on purpose. It may look like I'm struggling early on in reps, but it's all part of the game plan. ;)

This guy is so much better than mike Chang, he's not a sell out or anything, he actually gives really good advice. This guy is perfect for a personal trainer rather than tricking people into buy supplements
