I been training for awhile and I was reading on AnimalPak.com as I usually do for inspiration and I read the latest article about training on the edge. The point of the article that this bodybuilding game is a sport of extremes, you train too light? You suck...You train too hard? You over train and still suck. The goal is to get as close to that edge without going over it...that's where success is found. So since I read that article I have approached training with that mindset, the mindset being that if your not gonna go hard, get out, and if your not going to play it smart and no when to quit, you too can get out. Also, I have approached training recently focusing not on the weight I am using , but on the form to attain the greatest pump, and testing to see if that will jump start my muscle mass gains. I have noticed too lately that I have gone through the motions a little bit. I have been guilty of doing squats just to say that I did them. I think from now on I'm gonna go back to the crazy stuff, the stuff nobody wants to do that plain works. I'm not gonna attempt to hit the muscle from every possible angle. I am just going to use the basic compound movements, Bench, Squat, Deadlift, but use the techniques that suck while doing them. These would be, strip sets, high rep/intensity sets, strict form, deep reps...all the things people seem to forget when they star getting addicted to numbers...
Until Next time
