Weight Training, Strength, And The Simple Keys To Quickly Developing a Ripped, Muscular Physique!
Weight training provides the quickest and best means to improve yourself physically. There’s no denying it. You can convert yourself from a scrawny bag of bones into an absolute superman by training sensibly with heavy weights.
While weight training is so superior to every other form of exercise that comparisons become ridiculous – like almost everything else – it can be done properly or improperly. The purpose of my Huge Gains Fast mini-course is to show the budding bodybuilder how to train properly in order to derive the maximum results from his (or her) efforts – with the minimum of time invested.
So let me clear up one point of contention right now. When I speak of proper training, I refer to the standard, basic lifting and bodybuilding exercises, performed for a reasonable number of sets and repetitions, and over a realistic time period.
I am not suggesting excessive flushing, bombing, pumping, cramping, nor distorting of the muscles. I do not recommend any super-duper six hour workouts, starvation diets, nor sensuous poses in front of a full length mirror. I feel that a man should be able to train with weights, develop the maximum of strength and appearance he is capable of, and still lead a normal life.
Excessive, fanatical, odd-ball routines may or may not have a place in modern bodybuilding culture, and personally I have no desire to become involved in any dispute of this nature, but for the present purpose, at least, we will stick to the tried and true, sensible methods.
This blog, along with my newsletters are aimed at giving you the knowledge to develop great strength as a solid foundation for further muscular development. Make up your mind right now that you’re going to be using heavy weights at the end of it all. Two months from now you’ll be heavier and a whole lot stronger because of it.
There’s a tendency among uninformed bodybuilders to minimize the strength factor. I remember a guy I used to train with years ago. He was a tall good-looking dude with a slim, willowy build. He trained on light weights. He had a top press of 140 pounds and couldn’t have cared less.
I remember that when I tried to explain to him that he should do some power training and bulk up. He thought I was crazy because he figured the girls loved him the way he was already. The problem was that he was weak as a kitten. He didn’t think it mattered because the girls didn’t know how weak he was. What a joke.
Now get this! Suppose you’re walking home with a girl one night. And suppose some big lug steps out of an alley and drags her away. What do you do then? There may be a few bodybuilders who developed a nice looking build on light weights and never acquired much strength, but all the really great Champions emphasize power in their training. If you want a Herculean body, don’t overlook strength.
If you want a development like a Champion bodybuilder, then emphasize strength in your program. Spend some time at power training. As a group, weightlifters are the strongest athletes in the world. No one can match the sheer power of a top lifter.
This biggest fallacy in weight training today is the foisted notion that you can build big powerful muscles without hard work on heavy weights. You can’t do it, brothers, and you’re wasting your time trying. If you’re not gaining like you should, give your training poundage a long hard look. The fault may be entirely yours.
Remember though, you’re not becoming an Olympic lifter. This is a bodybuilding blog. You’re simply developing great strength as an aid to further muscular development. You need to keep your training session relatively short, but aim to work very, very heavy. Don’t forget – you’ve got to really put out to succeed.
