1. Thow Shall Lift Big
Give your muscles a reason to grow. Be intense do not do endless sets.. Go heavy, but don't remain at the gym doing reps with no intensity. Hit failure and make that last set count.
2. Thow Shall Eat Big
You must eat to grow. Get 30-40g protein per meal. Eat 6 meals a day. Cut junk food on all days per week except for one. You will crave chicken breasts, tuna shakes, pasta and chocolate milk. Not chips, McDonalds, lollies or even pizza (yes pizza).
3. Thow Shall Sleep
Recovery is key. You should try to average about 8 hours sleep a night, no less than 7. You sleep you grow remember this.
4. Thow Shall Drink Large Amounts of Water
Carry that drink bottle with you at all times. Drink 6 liters a day or their about. Keeps you well hydrated so you can train at your best.
5. Thow Shall Be Committed
If you're not sick or injured, you must train. You start skipping... you might as well forget those dreams. You must want to become that impressive physique before you can begin building it. Get yourself a reliable training partner. Make training a necessity not an obligation. Make it your number 1 priority.
6. Thow Shall Squat
If you have legs, a desire to grow and your back is OK, you will squat. Without the king of exercises, your growth is going to suffer. Squats develop more than just legs. Squats are an all-round body blaster squat and GROW!!
7. Thow Shall Not Be Afraid of Change
Change your routine around frequently. Every 3-6 weeks, vary the order that you do your routine, change your whole style altogether or even turn your workout on its ass and do it backwards (it works). Try high reps, low reps, high sets, 1 set you name it try it and see what works for you.
8. Thow Shall Not Over train
Do not train the same body parts within 3 days; leave 5 days for optimal recovery and growth. If your progress is slowing, you're getting injured or sick frequently, then it's time to take a break. Take 4-6 days off, and then go back at it. Don't be surprised if you're stronger after your layoff.
9. Thow Shall Not Neglect Injuries
Once you're injured, take a break. Lose 2 weeks training now, or prepare to keep those injuries forever. Don't be dumb your health is important.
10. Thow Shall Lift With True and Proper Form
Anyone can throw around the weights. Concentrate on good form and proper technique, and then let the poundage build up. Get a full range of motion and be proud that you're one of the few who actually trains properly.
