Slow motion muscle building

I have written a few articles about easy muscle building and I would like to share a technique that can add a whole new dimension to your muscle building workouts. This training strategy is know as slow-motion training. I have incorporated it from time to time in my own routines with great results and muscle gains. The central idea behind this style is that you will be taking a full minute to do one rep.
An example would be if you were doing a bench press: Take 30 seconds to lower the bar and 30 seconds to go to lockout. Another example, when doing a curl: It takes 30 seconds from a hanging position to a contracted position, then 30 seconds to the extended position again. A good way to pace yourself is to verbally count the seconds off. All exercises would be performed in this fashion.
Please leave your ego at the door because with this style of training you will probably only be able to use about 30% of your normal exercise poundage. This is about building muscle using a new concept. Make sure to keep your sets and reps on the low side (3x3). Be prepare to feel a burn and muscle soreness like never before! I can tell you from personal experience that three sets of three one-minute reps was about all I could endure.
This is a great change of pace and the type of training that can be used from time to time to get you up and growing again. Until next my next article, please feel free to visit my Easy Muscle training site or Email me to ask any training questions --- Not getting the results you want with your exercise program.? One of the best programs that I have found is Right Here It can get you on the right path to pack on the muscle maybe save you years of wasted effort.

Golden Age muscle tips using the Big Three

2009-12-28T16:15:00.000-08:00

One question that I hear as a personal trainer is"How do I get Big" . People are looking to gain muscle and it seems the harder they try ,they just can't get the desired results.

If we go back in a time capsule to the 40 and 50s and observed bodybuilders train back then,we might find the formula to really get big and gain muscle.

These days most people training have too much information from too many sources.

Many try to copy the routines of the top people in muscle magazines. In reality these routines are just too intense and time consuming for the average person to build muscle.

In the golden age of bodybuildiding,they knew that it was never how long you train but How Hard.

The following is a routine is one that will pack on muscle if followed

It consists of the following 3 exercises

The Squat

The Bench Press

The Row

Take a good warmup before each exercise then do each exercise for 5 sets of 6 to 8 reps

That will be a total of 15 sets.

Follow this muscle building program 3 days a week and follow a healthy eating program .
Allow at least a day rest between workouts and really push yourself on these 15 sets.
The big three will work all your muscle groups and you will gain muscle.
If you need help with your training this is One Of The Best I Found It could save you years of wasted time and effort.
Have fun with your training and good luck.
