ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER IN HIS ENCYCLOPEDIA STATES THAT
, ''...heavy days ( POWER TRAINING ) , makes , you stronger for high volume training ..'' (page 122 )
''including power training in your training also helps to make you stronger for the rest of your training ..''
''to shape and develop the body , it is nessessary to do a lot of the endurance kind of training - plenty of sets and reps; but i also believe that unless you include LOW REP , strength training you will never achieve the hardness and density necessary .....''.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
arnold states '' the bigger your muscles get , the stronger you become and therefore , the harder you are capable of training ...'' (page 68-69 ) SPECIFICITY OF TRAINING .
Schwarzenegger elaborates , '' when a muscle has been strengthened , it is capable of more intense effort, which manifests itself in two ways -
-ability to do more work
-do equal work in less time...
this means a trained muscle is not only stronger , it is faster ..'' (page 72, INTENSITY OF EFFORT )
THUS , Arnold concludes , ''.... by forcing myself to go to the limit every so often I counterbalanced , the lighter weight, higher - rep training that made up the majority of my workouts ....(page 122 ). ''
Schwarzenegger states , '' once you have gained 15 pounds or more of muscle mass , you are then ready .... to train for shape , size and mass ( page 169-170 ).''
------------------------------------------------------------------
But many of the H.I.T. GUYZ who criticize High Volume Training , never mention the fact , that schwarzenegger, RECOMMENDS , insists that POWER TRAINING is necessary ...to gain mass ... and then , THIS MASS YOU GAIN OVER A PERIOD OF TIME ,makes you ,stronger and faster for the endurance type of high set training or high volume training ....
---------------------------------------------------------------------
In reference to tendon strength and power training
Schwarzenegger ,in his encyclopedia further states:
''Heavy training strengthens the attachment of the tendon to the bone ...(PAGE 122 ). ''
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
''STRENGTH IMBALANCE BETWEEN MUSCLES AND TENDONS ''.
( On page 708 ) , Schwarzenegger in his Encyclopedia elaborates ,
''...... remember , the stronger you are , the more strain you are able to put on your muscles and tendons ,
but often the muscles gain strength at a faster rate than the tendons ,
thus creating an imbalance that can cause problems.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Further, Arnold states , ''You must allow yourself to progress at a reasonable rate , and not attempt to train too intensely or with too much weight ...''.
'' Even when you do power training , you do not necessarily go to your absolute maximum every time.
Training moderately heavy one day and then to your limit the next is more likely to speed up your progress
than maximum effort every time . ( page 122 ) ''
On page (115 ) , Arnold explains , '' ... you over train a muscle , forcing it to work too hard , too quickly after the preceding excercise session , you will not give it a chance to grow and your progress will slow down . ''
----------------------------------------------------------------
arnold mentions something about inducing ,.. '' sarcoplasmic hypertrophy. ''
(I'LL POST ARNOLD'S QUOTE FROM ENCYCLO . LATER )
Thus once your Tendons and Ligaments,and Muscles get Bigger and Stronger, you can train,''High Set Rep'' or Volume Training ....which is essential for the Competitive Professional Bodybuilder , to which the ''Encyclopedia '' , is primarily addressed .
