This is a six-week mass and strength microcycle periodization training concept popularized by former AABA Mr. California, IFBB Mr. World and one of the world's most symmetrical bodybuilders, Steve Davis. On two nonconsecutive workout days during the first two weeks of training, Davis suggests using the one-rep principle in which a weight can be handled in a strict positive/negative contraction. The idea is to do 10 continuous one-rep sets, decreasing the poundage just enough to grind out one more single rep until ten reps are completed.
There is no rest between each of these one-rep sets except to remove plates from the barbell for the next rep. Davis says that this program will really up one's power.
