Working for Tom’s Guide, I sort of need to be aware of the advancements in technology around me, especially in the fitness industry. I have mixed emotions about using ChatGPT for programming workouts, but I understand why people do — personal training fees are hardly cheap, and AI is readily accessible. Recently, I decided to embrace it myself and see what I'm up against.
I’ve just adopted a new full-body muscle-building program called German Volume Training (GVT). You perform 10 sets and 10 reps of two compound exercises per session at a moderate load, followed by a few optional accessory exercises. The idea is to use volume and overload to stimulate serious muscle mass growth without taking hours in the gym — and it works.
