How to lift a lot of weight
Friday, June 26th, 2009If you’re the type that has trouble sticking to a routine, you’d buy a weight bench and at least 300 pounds. A home gym is much easier than having to go out. You’ll save time and you won’t be able to make excuses to skip your workout.
Work out no more than twice a week and don’t forget to take breaks when necessary. I usually take a two-week break every six months and during stressful times.
If you’re just starting out, you’ll want to do a lot of deadlifts and also benches to build up your joints. Big joints are key to lifting heavy. Hint: To get good lat size quickly, rep it out with some one-arm dumbbell rows.
Don’t overdo it like most guys; unless you’re on steroids, doing more than three exercises per workout is just too much. Don’t do more than four sets per exercise, even if you really want to.
At one point, I was eating upwards of 160 grams of protein per day, but then after having spent too much money on the supplements and having decided to back off, I actually put on muscle at a noticeably faster rate. Eggs and milk are easily available, digestable and high in balanced protein.
On days when you’re not lifting, supplement your routine with good cardio to increase your circulation and lung capacity.
Having a toned body will help you to develop good form. If you’re concerned with your posture, keep a mirror by your bench or ask your partner to spot you.
Perhaps I’ll write more on this subject later. For now, best of luck to you all. Keep throwing those weight around and never give up!
