Get A Power Weight Lifting Program Your Body Will Thank You For -- Eventually

By Emmanuel Palmer


Get a solid weight lifting program and have a power packed, muscled physique worthy of gladiator lords of old. These programs fully utilize your body?s weight and successfully convert it to hard muscle and pure strength. Expect the bodybuilding workouts that comprise will be intense, constantly changing and catered to the specific body type.

High intensity workouts are good for people who plan to gain a considerable amount of body mass in a short period of time. There are also others who are more comfortable in building up endurance and bulk over a period of two to three months. A better approach is to find the blocks that work best for your specific body type and integrate it into one. Give each session your all.

If one aspires to get a bigger physique in a hurry, your initial reaction is to hit the gym as often as you can right? Do not do this. It will actually do your body more good if you take long breaks in between training so the muscle tissues are allowed to heal and mend properly. Quality rest makes for bigger and stronger muscles. A proven strategy for a weight lifting program is split training certain muscle groups and assign it on certain days so you can plan your schedule better.

A three day split workout would look something like this: Monday - chest, arms and abs Wednesday ? back, shoulder and abs Saturday ? legs If you prefer a five day split workout here is one you can follow: Monday - legs Tuesday ? shoulders Wednesday ? back and abs Thursday ? shoulders and arms Friday ? chest and abs Concentrate on getting serious sleep and eating health during the rest of the days.

There are a number of workout regimens you can do and for the most part, you don?t really need to have fancy workout machines to do them. All you need are the basics: several dumbbells of varying weights, cables and a bench. You have these and you can do arm curls (bicep and triceps), dumbbell shrugs, lat pull downs and triceps kickbacks for the muscle groups in the upper body; lunges, calf raises, leg raises and squats for your lower body workout. Crunches are always a reliable abdominal muscles workout but as with the rest of the drills mentioned, modify your program every few weeks so your body remains consistently pushed to higher levels.

When you begin to train, you will be starting with lesser weights and perhaps a higher number of repetitions. Gradually increase the weights so the muscle is stressed and stimulates accelerated growth. If you are training for bodybuilding purposes, use weights that give you a maximum of 7 to 12 reps until failure.

And last but not the least, take the time to stretch well before you begin your workout and also between sets. This increases your flexibility and increases you body temperature?optimal conditions for a good training session.

Bodybuilding workouts work only as well as the dedication and tenacity of the individual undertaking it. Practice safety and care while you train; and give it your all in each session. The winner in you will take nothing less.
