Also, remember that mental recovery is just as important as physical. You will usually be more excited and fired up to go to the gym three days a week than four. Especially if this is something you plan on doing for the rest of your life.4. If you train four days per week it’s best to not have two back to back training days more than once. So train on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat or Mon, Tues, Thurs, Sat.5. As the great strength coach, once said, “I have yet to find a better way to get strong than lifting heavy.” Load up the bar, keep adding weight over time, and you will get strong. Eat enough calories while doing that and you will get very big as well. A simple muscle building tip that works every time.6. Don’t train to often-In order to grow you must provide your body with optimum stimulation then back off and allow time to rest & recover.7. All reps are not created equal. One set of 25 is not the same as five sets of five. Heavier weights will bring about an earlier recruitment of the fast twitch fibers and create more micro trauma. This will lead to more/faster myofibril hypertrophy. In simple terms you will build “real muscle” faster with lower rep sets.8. Use the right exercise order. Always start your workouts with the most demanding exercise. Any form of explosive lifts or jump exercises (power cleans) Then big compound exercises next Dead lift, Squats then Chins Also the lowest rep sets with the heaviest weight first with the higher rep sets for arms till last.9. You need to eat ample amounts of healthy food to help recovery & fuel muscle building, eat like a caveman, Lean meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts & seeds 10. Don’t try to re-invent the wheel stick to basic compound exercises for each body part Deadlift, DB& B Presses, Weighted push ups Dumbbell presses, Chin ups, Barbell curl, dips, Squats 1. If you are a beginner do full body workouts.2. When in doubt do more chin ups, dips and pushups? These are still the best upper body mass builders around and nothing is bound to replace them any time soon.3. Most people will make great progress with three weight training workouts per week. More than that may lead to recover issues for some people. Others will be fine but the fourth day won’t necessarily provide significantly better results.
