theworkoutexperiment.com is launching August 20th. It will be an analysis of a rigorous 10-day session (with one day rest between 5 days of intense workouts), including cardiovascular exercise and intense weightlifting. Daily analyses will be performed, including a breakdown of workouts, nutrition, photographs, and more. My brother and I would love to hear some feedback from you guys before launching, and continued feedback as we take part in our experiment.

We aim to "overtrain" for ten days to see whether results are positive or negative, and the degree of these results. The regimen involves:

1. One hour of jogging every morning
2. 1 - 1.5 hours of intense exercise in the late afternoon/evening
--- Day 1: Either swimming or running
--- Day 2: Chest/Tris/Shoulders/Abs
--- Day 3: Either swimming or running
--- Day 4: Back/Bis/Abs
--- Day 5: Sprints
And some variation of this cycle repeated for the 5 days after the mid-way resting point. No legs are included because so much emphasis is placed on running that it would be unwise to have sore legs.
3. Approximately 3000 calories per day, consisting of a balanced diet with high protein, dispersed throughout the day in 5 to 6 meals.
4. Stretching before and after every running session.

Let us know what you think and we hope to see you on our website during the experiment.

Thanks,
Anton and Nikita

By just doing this the one time, and not regularly, I would expect to see some positive results from the brother who is the avid bodybuilder. The one who is not, depending on what shape he is in before the experiment, may be overexhausted a few days into the routine and not fare too well. But just as this is named, it is an experiment, so anything could happen. Good luck guys.
 
Basically -- whether or not ten days of high-intensity exercise has any visibly effects on the human body.

Thanks!
Anton
 
I think it's a great idea but you guys have totally different conditioning levels and will respond differently and therefore the experiment will have inaccurate results.
