A Champion's Weight Training Program Guide
October 10, 2010
You’ve seen enough action flicks to know you want the same body as the hero who gets the girl-now you’re taking the next step by enrolling in a gym and getting a weight training program to get you to your goal. Read on to get the best muscle building exercises and facts that will help you understand your body better; effectively putting substance on your workouts.
There are two philosophies in weight training: the high intensity training and the periodization program. The main difference between the two is the time and aggression that you hit each session with. High intensity focuses on short and highly charged workouts with emphasis on drills that you need to do until failure (unable to lift weights because of sheer exhaustion). Periodization is training over a period of 2 to three months; wherein you will do light, medium and heavy training for three weeks per level.
If you are unsure which is a better method-it is both. They have advantages and disadvantages and the best approach is to take the parts which works for you and integrate it into your regimen. Always keep in mind though that you will need to vary the exercises and weight loads often because your body remembers the pain you subjected it to and it will prepare for it. When it becomes familiar and complacent, the workout will not be as effective as before.
Apart from weight training, rest and diet are the other factors that make a successful bodybuilding regimen. There is a tendency to put the latter pair in the back burner and trivialize their importance; but understand that all three are vital for your fitness goals. For instance, did you know that when you exercise, you are putting tears in your muscle? Rest is what mends them and builds them up to be stronger and bigger than when you started. That is why if you train 4 times a week, use the rest of the week getting good sleep and a proper diet.
For the best muscle building diet, consume food that are rich in protein and carbohydrates. This will fuel your workout sessions and give your body the nutrients it needs as you put yourself through grueling activities. Your calories should come from lean meat, fish, eggs and the like instead of food high in fat content. Also include protein shakes and recommended muscle supplements that will help your body.
Never forget to warm up and stretch before you start your workout session. What this does is lay the foundation for your exercise; preparing your body to perform at its best by stimulating the blood flow to vital organs, raising your body temperature and increasing flexibility. Make it a practice to stretch even between sets and as you cool down after your training.
When you are building muscle and bulking up, aerobic training that serve to burn calories should be limited to a couple of hours a week. However, this is not to mean to take this away from your regimen altogether. Cardiovascular workouts are essential for your heart’s health. As you near your ideal weight, increase the frequency and minutes of aerobic training for maintenance.
A perfect weight training program is the holy grail of all bodybuilders and professional trainers alike- much desired but few take the effort to see it through. And while mistakes may litter the path to the amazing physique of your dreams, with determination and persistence it will not fail to come.
