How To Get Strong
To get strong, you need to lift more and more weight. While you won’t get more muscle, you will indeed get stronger using this innovative new strategy.
This method is to make your muscles extremely strong and able to lift a lot of weight. If bulking up is what you are more interested in, see my other post entitled “Fastest Way To Gain Muscles” to get tips specifically designed to get you that buff look.
Lots of people choose to bulk up first and then go to this method to get stronger afterward. You will build less muscles with this approach, but it will make your muscles leaner and harder.
There are only three exercises you need to to do get strong. Doing additional exercises will harm your gains. Only do these exercises, so only exert energy with these. You will get strong at a much faster rate.
At the end of your workouts, you will probably feel like you haven’t trained enough. Having this left over energy is important and it will help you build more strength faster. You can still do some cardiovascular exercise, but too much will ruin your progress. HIIT, or High Intensity Interval Training, should be done only once or twice a month with this program.
The three magic exercises are Deadlifts, Squats, and Benchpress, and they are all you need.
Deadlifts should only be done weekly. Twice weekly, put your energy into benchpresses and squats but only use heavy weight once. The heavy day is to build strength and the light day is only to improve your technique. It is important that you use lighter weights(80% of the original weight) on the second time you benchpress and squat.
On heavy lifting days do 5 sets of 5 reps, and on during light workouts do 5 sets of 4 reps. On heavy days when you are challenging your muscles, add 5 pounds of weight if you can easily do all 5 sets of 5 reps.
It is absolutely crucial that you don’t train to failure if you want to get strong. Don’t do a rep unless you actually know you can follow through with the exercise.
