Bodybuilding Principles
Progressive Resistance
The only way to make muscles grow is to subject them to an overload. As you
grow stronger, the only way to make your muscles continue to grow is by
increasing the work that they do. This can be done by simply increasing the
weight that you lift. This ensures that your muscles are continuing to
work at their maximum.
Over-training and recuperation
Recuperation is needed in order to let your muscles rest and grow. Over
training occurs when the muscles are trained to often with not enough time
to recover and/or not fed properly.
Achieving full range of motion
This is the only way to stimulate the entire muscle. Any exercise should
take the muscle through its longest possible range of motion. This means
full extension to complete contraction.
Warming up
This is an essential part to the workout. By warming up the muscle it
reduces the risk of injury and also allows a higher level of intensity
to be achieved by preparing the joints and the cardio-vascular system.
Sets, Reps and the right weight
The number of sets should generally be around 5 in order to allow full
stimulation of all of the muscle fibres. The number of reps should be
generally between 8 and 12 in a beginner's workout. The correct weight to
use is simply judged on if you can lift it and complete your specific
number of reps without failing 2-3 short or doing 2-3 more. The last rep
should be a struggle but not so hard you have to cheat to be successful.
Rest between sets
This has to be judged quite carefully. If you rush you workout and have
little rest between sets you are likely to tire yourself out to early.
But if you rest for too long your heart rate will slow down and the
level of intensity drops to virtually nothing. The average time is
roughly one minute between each set.
Breathing
This may seem a little strange but it is important to breathe correctly,
i.e exhale with effort, holding your breath could result in injury.
Advanced Bodybuilding Principles
Forced reps
This is a technique for when you reach failure in a set but you have
your training partner help you 'force' out 2 or 3 more reps by taking
some of the wieght. These can be helpful to break a sticking point.
Negatives
Negatives provide the muscle with eccentric tension, that is
lengthening of the muscle whilst under tension. For example this
occurs when lowering the wieghts in a bench press or barbell curl.
This negative stage should be controlled and slow. You can also
have your partner assist in the raising of the wieght in order to
perform more negatives.
Supersets
These are two or more exercises performed in a row with no rest
in between.
Stripping method
This is used to completely exhaust the muscle. When you reach
failure on the set remove a small amount of weight and do some
more reps. Again when failure is met remove some more weight. This
should be done only on the last set for that exercise.
21's
This is a series of half reps performed at the lower, middle and
upper section of the full movement. Traditionally it is 7 reps in
each section giving a total of 21 reps in a set.
