Bodybuilding Basics: Why Can not I Get Bigger? Part 1

"I'm so frustrated that they can not be even bigger and I'm not always better!" If sound familiar? Maybe you tell yourself. Go to the gym religously spend hour after hour, while the bench for chest press, rows and pull-down menu for the back, barbell curls and triceps extensions for your arms still nothing happened. Or at least not what we hoped for when you start bodybuilding. Here's a true story: Several years ago I was a miner who was raised gym asked me what myThoughts on his education. His frustration was the fact that more than 3 years of preparation and lifting weights on his body had been minimal and its facilities were not much better if he had changed started.I was watching, and sometimes work with He set a few years ago, so I knew his style of training: The days of the chest that usually begin with some warm-up repetitions, and then you start the pot. It would be like a rule in a pyramidThe weight to do 12-15 repetitions which would be over, and usually about 4 repetitions for its sixth series! Then he would steer the incline bench, grab the heaviest weight that could for 5 or 6 reps, and will manage another 4 sets to do. He would then go to a sloping chair and not more inclined dumbbell flyes. Then it would be a further explosion of his chest muscles poor with the platform of Pec and, sometimes, cable flyes decline. The moment was done only with the chest, had spent almost an hour andhad always been done, it is usually 18-24 set, what this guy did not need advice, need a break! He was so overloaded muscles of the chest for the time he returned to work at its next meeting (sometimes) just 4 days later, he could not recover recovery / rays had just given them. If this man had in his 20-might have a chance, but the fact that he was only 40 years things worse.This story is a shining example of aof the main reasons why people so hard, muscle-building Overtraining.Muscles grow to be exposed to stress. You lift a weight to stress the muscles, and if all goes well, in the time that the muscle will grow to accommodate the load is put on it. But the muscle does not grow while you're at the gym. That when you actually break the muscles. The growth / repair occurs when your body enough time for the muscles, which has worked in order for repair to grow.Overtraining occurs when the muscle is put under too much stress and overtraining, recovery time is not enough for them itself.Another example of a specific muscle repair the biceps / triceps group. Too often, I am in the gym to begin my training and see a guy doing biceps. Set after set, after the collapse. I finished with my training and I am still curls. E 'unnecessary and counterproductive. So what is the exact number of sets should I do?
There isa single formula for one person. What does not work for you, maybe for me. What a 18-year-old almost certainly not at 50 years for a job! The truth is that these are "trial and error are required." Sweet spot "found in the training that allow stress your muscles, but also allows access to the next meeting and burst again. As a very general and true, the age and experience, each muscle group twice a week should be somethingto shoot for. But if you do not make profits, you take a look is the serial number that you are doing and how often you are working in a group. Remember sometimes less is more!
