Getting Even More Out Of Your Muscle Building Workout

Many bodybuilders around the world are now faced with the difficulty of getting significant results from their efforts, which would require the strengthening of all applicable muscle fibers after they have been enlisted to work harder.

There is only one way around this challenge, and that is to rise to it, and ramp up your training efforts to the fullest. This also ensures that workouts remain challenging and continue to engender progress over time thus reducing the likelihood of regression.

But if you really are to work hard, how can you make your training count? Follow the tips we shall be discussing, as this is the golden path, tried and true, towards a better body and a better you:

Increase resistance

This simply means increasing the weight in significant, yet realistic increments to make sure the muscle building process moves forward instead of backwards. Aim to increase the weight when you reach six to eight reps and failure does not occur.

Throw That Change-Up

Every single muscle fiber in your body must be challenged for best results. Changing the angle (e.g to incline bench press) or introducing a new exercise will stimulate growth.

Rest Is For The Weak

Giving the muscles less time to recover before exposing them to further work has the effect of increasing intensity.

Pre-exhaustion

Your primary muscle is protected from failure by the weakest muscle in the event you are focusing on two muscles or more. You will want to do an isolation move here, exercising your primary muscle and tiring it out first, before doing another exercise to ensure failure for the rest of the muscles.

The Concept Of Supersets

This involves performing two exercises for the same muscle group without a rest interval. This is a technique that can enhance growth as you would be exercising more than one set of muscle fibers.

Use partial reps

At the point of failure you will not be able to complete the full range of movement for a given exercise. Completing a partial rep that uses only a segment of the lift will still work your muscles beyond the point of failure. This is a golden opportunity for every bodybuilder to workout like they never worked out before, but without risking overwork or overtraining which is never a good thing.

Do Iso Contractions Help?

Once your muscles reach the point of failure, do an iso contraction by holding the weight still - yes, this could be of help as well.

Forcing Repetitions

This involves completing one or more final reps after the point of failure has been reached. You may need somebody especially experienced in "spotting" to utilize this technique.

Each one of these techniques can help you maximize muscle growth once you integrate them into your workout.
