[Q] What are the things you have learned that made the biggest impact on your ability to build muscle?
[A] There are four things that really stand out in my mind. Those four things are:
1) Highly intense workouts. The first workout I had
the was truly highly intense made me throw up in the bathroom! Most
people just aren't working hard enough to force their muscles to grow.
The workouts are not intense enough, and the body has no reason to grow.
2) Determining the right amount of rest between
workouts. Remember, the more intensely you train, the longer it will
take for your body to recover. Determining the optimal number of rest
days your body needs is the key to explosive growth.
3) Progressive overload. You've probably heard this
philosophy a few times by now. Once I started to progressively
overload my muscles a little more every workout, I really started to
see results. The best way to measure your progress is to take a look
at your strength. If it isn't increasing each workout, something has
to change.
4 Being consistant. I don't just mean with training-I
mean with everything including diet, sleep, etc. You have to be
dedicated and work hard week in and week out if you want to see
outstanding results.
