Weight Training Routines

As you go through the different phases of your weight training routines, many simply go along without much understanding, not knowing how the body reacts to the routine you may choose. The body is made of of millions of cells, that produces outputs from your inputs. When making the most of the outputs given by the development of our cells in the muscles, we could end up damaging them, thus preventing them from new development. To get the best weight training routines, we must think about how the muscles interact with each other.

With this knowledge, it is important for any body builder to have sufficient knowledge to train themselves. Always make sure that you allow enough time for your muscles to react to the best growth possible. You must also ensure that you do not needlessly slow down your muscle cells from growing to their max.

In order to maximize this, train your target areas in pairs on alternate days, this will allow your muscles to grow to their full capability. Try training your muscles simultaneously on different days. Imagine how your muscles work (shrink and expand) during your training. Some common target groups are biceps & triceps, chest pectorals & deltoids, quads & hamstrings etc. Let’s lokk at some examples.

If you train your biceps and triceps on Monday and rest them on Tuesday. Muscles will work and develop as a pair, and coimplement each other as they grow. Biceps and triceps are opposing muscle groups that are good to train together as a pair. For example: When doing a bicep curl, you expand the triceps while contracting the biceps. It is due to the way they loosen and contract in harmony that makes them ideal to train together. For best results, dont train them independently and let them increase in mass in unison. 

We should merge our weight training routines to work separately. Work your non-competitive muscles individually. Merged weight training workouts includes:

  • Biceps and back muscles routine.
  • Triceps and chest muscles routine.
  • Calves and quads routine.
  • Dead lifts and hamstrings routine
