Advanced Training Philosophy
On the blog I previously outlined the basic training philosophy which has worked for me. Here are some more advanced training techniques which will put your training workout sessions into overdrive.
Train Heavy. I believe great physiques should have awesome proportions with powerful size and mass. I believe strength training with heavy poundage is vital in developing awesome mass. I always train for strength all year round in all exercises, especially in the basic power movements such as the squat, bench press, and deadlift.
Vary Your Exercises. Vary your exercises within the routine. Experiment with ‘new’ movements that you haven’t tried, or variations of old movements. Always try different machines, equipment, etc., to see which one ‘feels right.’ Alternate heavy movements with moderate poundage and higher reps weekly. Finish with your starting movement for a muscle group and vice versa for a change.
Focus on the Burn. Learn to focus on ‘the burn’ to pump the muscles fully using various techniques: moderate poundage/high reps (15-30), peak contraction, full range of motion, half-reps and partials (burns), forced reps, negatives, posing between sets, stretching, etc. Always strive for the biggest, fullest pump possible on every workout. This is one of our main goals.
