Building a lot of muscle on your arms is realistic. You wasted a lot of time doing 1,000 curls.

I have had enough.

People are jumping on the latest fitness craze. I can’t go outside without hearing words like functional training or P90X. Before you get sucked into a trend, remember why you got into strength training in the first place. Is packing on slabs of muscle not something you want to do? Or a lot of strength? Maybe you were like me and wanted to get big, veiny, sleeve tearing, girl seducing arms.

My friend, welcome to the Arm-Ageddon.

My name is Dan Trink and I am the Director of Personal Training at one of America’s top 10 gyms as chosen by Men’s Health, proud holder of too-many-mentions-too-certification and writer for too-many-magazines-too-count.

I have huge arms. Aside from the Mr. Clean jabs, I get asked how I got my body.

It wasn’t always this way. The weight room saved my life when I was overweight and working for an ad agency.

I read about nutrition and working out. I put in a lot of work and it paid off. I was asked by my doctor if I was on steroids. Before I trained a single person, I did all of this. I assumed you had to walk the walk before telling others what to do. My guns have become part of me. It seems to be a show everywhere I go. I catch girls looking up from their phones to see if I’m at a gun show.

Are you going to win the arms race?

Follow any 100 guys that walk into a gym and check back in 5 years. You wouldn’t be able to find more than 5 that are still making progress.

That is 5%! It means that 95 percent either fail or plateau.

How do the 5% do it? They know the importance of sticking to a program. 5% of people understand the need to progress in their workouts. They know that doing the same thing over and over again will not yield results.

The problem is why you are missing the train.

You need to stop making the same mistakes if you want to get to Swolesville. I have to see the following to walk into the gym.

The guys are doing the same arm workout they did in high school.

Guys are doing the same exercises for the same amount of reps.

The functional trainer says that he doesn’t do direct arm training because we don’t use our biceps and triceps in isolation. I have news for you. We walked into the gym to work out. We went to the gym to get jacked so we can get laid after the workout.

It was cheating through every set.

I dreamed about having big arms when I was a child. The type that would make my friends jealous. I was 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217

The solution is to book your tickets to the gun show.

There are 5 factors involved in this program.

Volume. There is a total amount of work. There needs to be a sufficient amount of stimulation.

Variety. The greatest amount of muscle damage occurs when different exercises, angles, grips, and positions are utilized.

There is distress in the metabolism. The proper hormonal environment is provided by incomplete rest periods.

The time under tension is called Time Under Tension. Booking your tickets to the gun show is dependent on the speed at which you lift and lower the weight.

It’s called Supercompensation Slingshot. Right now, I am going to reveal the true secret to you.

Everybody will be talking about the Supercompensation Slingshot in a couple of years. You will get more growth out of your arms with this method. The concept of the slingshot is based on a technique used to prepare for a show. They combine an extremely low carbohydrate diet with overtraining to deplete their muscles of energy. Then, a couple days before the show, they re-feed and the muscles are so full that they grow back bigger and stronger than before.

My Supercompensation Slingshot will not make you hate life or puppies unless you are a cat guy and already hate puppies. This will make you dislike cats. I don’t have anything if you already hate cats and puppies. You will train with more volume on your guns in this program. Your other body parts will be put into maintenance mode for the time being.

I will be changing the training to deplete your glycogen with a concept called overreaching, which is done safely. Your arms will grow bigger after a period of rest. Slits might have to be cut in your sleeves.

This workout does not act like a way to lose 5 lbs of water weight in a week. It takes time to use the slingshot. You won’t gain any size during the 4 weeks of the program. You will probably lose strength.

The stronger the rebound, the farther you pull a slingshot back.

The Supercompensation Slingshot begins to do its work after 4 weeks. The brain sends frantic signals to the muscle to grow as quickly as possible because it was starving. Enjoy the sleeve popping, eat right, lean back, and relax.

Dan Trink is one of the best trainers that I know. His approach to strength and conditioning is a combination of deliberate application of cutting edge exercise science and experience based on hundreds of hours of face-time training clients. If you want to be a strength coach, you have to understand the science of training, but you have to put in the time to apply the training nuances that allow your clients to get the extra 10-15% changes in their bodies that they couldn’t. Dan lives the template of an ideal coach that all trainers should strive for. I always look forward to my conversations with Dan as they are always intellectually charged interactions which leave me with a list of ideas to explore and implement, making me a better nutritionist. Men’s Health, Men’s Fitness, and T-Nation are written by Dr. Mike Roussel PhD.

One of the most important things for a coach or trainer to recognize is that they have two eyes, two ears, and one mouth, and that they should use them in that order.

Dan is a top rate coach and someone who I have a lot of respect for, but he is always learning and open to learning from other people. He listens to others and hones his craft. Always.

Dan talks the talk, but he walks it. He is dedicated to his clients and is one of the most well-rounded and passionate trainers I have ever met.

Dan is an awesome human being, which is the best compliment you can give someone. He deserves it.

I warn you that this program is not easy. You will want to quit if you get sore. If you are one of the 5% who is mentally strong enough to make it through or want to be one of those 5%, then you are ready to take your first step to a set of giant pipes. So without further ado…

Introducing.

The gun show training system features the Supercompensation Slingshot.

Everything you need to know about the Supercompensation Slingshot is contained in the Training Manual. Everything you need to know before, during, and after is included in the 4 weeks of programming.

I would charge you at least $300 for a 4 week program. I charge $150 per hour for my training clients. Magazines pay me hundreds of dollars for a single article. You won’t pay anything close to that and you’ll get more. They don’t log their workouts correctly. I am sharing with you my secret workout templates.

The exact exercises you need to do in addition to the sets, reps, and some notes can be found on these templates. They are ready to leave. Bring them with you to the gym.

You only get the entire package for this week. It is less than $1 a day. Is it possible that your arms are worth less than a dollar a day? I think so.
