  Hi Mike!
  
  Great post again. Some time ago I suggested to try a 100 rep set. It's more than just a DOM machine.
  
  I predict:
  
  1. It will put you into a very dark place at rep 35-40.
  
  2. Your threshold will increase in subsequent workouts.
  
  3. Strength will increase dramatically.
  
  All you need to do is 1 set. I suggest 45 degree angle seated dumbbell curls. A rough "rule of thumb", find your maximum weight FRESH for a set of 8. What ever this is, the next time you do curls, reduce your weight to 60% of this and hammer out 100 reps strictly.
  
  SO if my max was 50 pounds @ reps, the next biceps day I'd be doing 20 pounds @ 100 reps.
  
  The thing about this is that the result is up to you, fail or succeed, but you need to break through the pain. I can't give you any scientific facts but all this to say it would be great if you could give it a shot and see how your training, for all exercises is after this technique?
  
  I'd love to know your take on it.
  
  Cheers
  Stef

     Stef, how often would you do a workout like this?  Is there a link to a website where I can read about the concept?  I generally don't try things without researching it first.

        I say do it only once... but here's a link. It's more mental than anything in my books
