Hi, I have a question about the importance of resting time and consistent improvement of exercises. I am trying to gain lean muscle (no shit, right), and my strategy right now is to rest two full days between exercising each muscle group. Unfortunately, I am having trouble bumbing up the next level. I have been told that if you don't lift more weight or more reps at each workout than the last one, you are wasting your time. For example, if I did 4sets of 10 reps with a shoulder press, then I would need to do at least 4 sets of 11 reps the next time. So basically, I am kind of stuck with most of my exercises. Any suggestions?

Maybe you need to lift heavier, or work on generating more power, to induce more neural adaptations. Maybe you need to periodize. Maybe you just need a change.

You aren't going to be able to improve every single session. You don't even necessarily have to try. I back off and deload every 6 weeks or so. Most of the time you should strive to improve, but if everyone were able to improve every single session then we would all be benching 800 pounds after several years, but this obviously isn't the case.

training is supposed to be improving after TIME... not in one day... or workout....

Resting time is a great thing to do on the weekend and also for body parts. I do one body part a day with two exercises per day. I also do cardio in the morning as-well. I found what works for me is to shock my system by not doing the same exercise for a total of three weeks. I have a cycle that I will do a different pair of exercises for three week total and then the fourth week I start all over again. This allows ample time for my muscles to recover from each kind of exercise. With this method, I see an increase in weight almost every time. It varies from time to time all depending on how much sleep I got the night before and what I have been eating. You can see what I am talking about if you go to my blog and scroll down to the first entry which is at the bottom of the page.

That's a pretty good strategy mate.

thanks

thnks

Posted by: Marat

alexvega,

Lifting heavy is relative to each person. Don't worry if your numbers are less than what they were in the past. Keep training hard and you'll be back to where you were.

However, proper diet is crucial to adding mass. To gain weight you need to increase your caloric intake. It doesn't matter how hard you are training if you are not eating enough.

Lots of great info in those links.

Posted by: musclemakernow

This is great help! I am always on the look out for new routines to incorporate into my life. I love looker stronger and leaner.

Posted by: Powodzenie

I tried every routine known to man the last couple have been from Bill Bostrom's book "Z last book you will ever need in strength training" In april i hit 425 raw bench and 625 raw dead but since there's been nothing. Then I tried 5,3,1 routine from elite fits not bad but not moving up. The last week or so I have been reading every westside article I could find and they are producing more guys benching over 600 lbs dead 0ver 800 and squat over 900 than anybody else anywhere. I am putting together a nice template that is going to be easy to follow 4 days week max erfort upper dynamic upper max effort lower dynamic lower then adding bands and chains to the workouts. I will have it all set up in an excell spreadsheet so all you will have to do is print it out and write everything in. They work 3 weeks only change the routine up that is how you r able to max out every week because it keeps changing I will post the best articles that I have found like Dave Tate explaining westside training. I guarantee I will hit 500 raw bench 700 raw dead with this routine. I will post the links and attachments when it is done this week. If you want to search go to yahoo type in westside templates shit load will come up then westside bands and chains u will see the one from Dave Tate Testosterone Nation link that is the best one that explains how to do it...
