Are you looking to gain mass and strength? Well here is a weight training frame work that will help you to reach this goal. Use these tips for the most productive workouts of your life.
1: Train With Good Form And A Ton Of Intensity.
Good for the ego, and impressive to onlookers, lifting heavy weights can only be of use to you if you are in complete control of the weight and you are using strict form. You cannot generate any real intensity unless you are getting a full contraction of the muscle. You do this by using a weight that you can handle for 6 to 8 reps of controled movement.
2: Push Past The End.
When we hit at the top with the amount of weight that we can use, this usually means the end of our progress aswell. This is when it is time to make changes to your program. When you are starting out in muscle building the initial gains that you make come fast, but after about 3 months they will begin to slow down and even stop. When this begins to happen, the best thing to do is to start with small changes in your workout.
Doing things like changing the way that you grip a barbell can have a huge effect on the way that you stimulate muscle growth. Doing your exercise routine in reverse is another really good way to hit the muscles in a different way. The bottom line is that you must make changes so that your body does not have time to adjust to what you are doing to it.
3: Recovery.
Here is the best way to get strong and huge. Do nothing. To get stronger and larger the most important thing that your muscles need is rest and time to rebuild after training at high intensity levels with heavy weights. Those who train long and hard with little rest will be getting no where fast. This only leads to overtraining. When your body is overtrained you are more likely to get ill because your immune system is lowered. This will only set you back. Learn to recognize the symptoms of overtraining, and avoid it at all costs. Train hard, just do not go over the top.
To get the most form from all of your workouts, keep these 3 tips in mind at all times. Following them will lead you to success.
