3. Training Frequency
The sad reality is that the popular high volume type of
training that you find in bodybuilding books and magazines
(and used by the stars) is irrelevant to the majority of
the population and has a shocking failure rate.
What is good for Joe Star is probably not good for you.
Everybody has different genetics; most of us have poor genetics
and are not taking steroids like the stars.
The only way the majority of us can make any gains at all
is to perform short intense workouts followed by long periods
of rest so that we don't overtrain.
4. Over-Compensation
Many studies conducted around the world have shown clearly
that recuperation from strength training requires far more
rest time than previously thought.
Infrequent, short, high intensity weight training sessions,
followed by the required amount of time to recover and become
stronger is necessary for you to increase your functional
muscle.
Here's what you need to do - allow your body enough recuperation
time for over compensation to take place, so that the muscles
can adjust to their new strength and growth.
5. Exercise selection for intensity
I can't stress enough of how exercise selection is absolutely
crucial. There are only a few exercises that you really
need to perform. These exercises consist of multi-joint
movements.
These particular exercises are far superior to that of
isolation exercises (working 1 muscle group at a time) because
you are required to use more muscles from every muscle group.
By using these exercises your whole body will be worked
hard.
6. Visualization
Over my 20 years in the industry, I've noticed that this
area is by far the most neglected by mainstream health and
fitness professionals...
Most books or courses concentrate on the physical side
of muscle gain or fat loss and completely neglect the mental
side of things.
By training your mental state as well as your physical
body you can even further progress in muscle growth.
Now that you know these strength-training principles put
them to the test straight away and stop wasting your time
in the gym.
