Hi Dr. Darden,
I am getting good results from your new 10-10-10 approach.
I’m doing eight exercises twice weekly, resting only thirty seconds between exercises.
Are there any other guidelines you could share to get the most out of 10-10-10?
When you can do 10-10-10 in good form on a specific exercise, add 3-5 percent more resistance at your next workout on that exercise.
So 10-10-10 is more progressive than 30-10-30?
Do you recommend stopping a set one or two reps before failure in 10-10-10?
I’ve used it both ways with my trainees. Most of the time, with people over 50, I stop it a rep before failure. With younger trainees I would push to failure.

And is metabolic conditioning a part of 10-10-10?
Am I on the right track by resting thirty seconds (or less) between exercises?
Yes, you are correct.
I have many questions, but will wait to ask until I’m more experienced with 10-10-10.
Thank you for your replies.
Hello again, Dr. Darden.
I had a couple more questions.
How often would you recommend taking a layoff with 10-10-10?
And do you have any current recommendations for using Creatine?
After 6 to 12 weeks of 10-10-10, take a week off of training.
With creatine today, I’d recommend what the Biotest packets suggest.
