1 Training Trick For Continuous Muscle Gains and Non Stop Fat Loss

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A big problem encountered by bodybuilders, fitness enthusiasts, and

those looking to lose weight and get toned is the fact that they

plateau (stop making gains) after a few weeks of using a specific

program. The way to do fix that is to make use of the cycling

principle, which is the principle that forms the basis of my

successful Body Re-Engineering program.

In order to achieve consistent gains you need a routine that makes

changes in an orderly manner that takes the body to the brink of

overtraining and then allows it to recover, and thus,

overcompensate (grow) in response to the stress. These changes are

what the Cycling Principle is all about.

The Cycling Principle is the key to consistent and rapid increases

in muscle mass, strength and fat loss. This principle states that

in order for the body to respond optimally, it cannot be trained in

the same manner all the time and that the best way to make the body

respond is through the correct variation of exercises, volume

(number of sets times number of reps), intensity (how heavy the

weight is), and rest periods between sets.

Workout parameters are going to be determined by the phase of the

program you are in. There are going to be three phases that we will

be repeating over and over again. The first week will be an "Active

Recovery Phase". In this phase you will only train with weights

twice a week on a full body routine before you start the next phase

which will be called the "Loading Phase". The "Loading Phase",

which is three weeks in duration, is going to be a high volume

phase with short rest between sets. Training volume gradually

increases over the course of the three weeks in order to stress the

body almost to the point of overtraining.

Then the next three weeks are going to be a higher intensity/lower

volume phase (heavier weights) with longer periods of rest between

sets. This phase is called the "Growth Phase", as volume is reduced

but weights are increased in order to let the body catch up and

super compensate (grow muscle size and strength).

The Active Recovery Phase 

The Active Recovery Phase has three main functions: 

* First, according to leading strength expert Tudor Bompa, Ph.D.,

"you are trying to adapt the anatomy of the body to the upcoming

training so that you can create, or produce an injury free

environment". Essentially, your tendons and ligaments should be

strong enough to support the stressful periods that will follow.

* Second, this phase is a great time to address any strength

imbalance that your body might have. This is the reason why mostly

dumbbell work will be used during this phase.

* Finally, this phase will act as a great time in which the body

will re-charge its energy stores and allow for complete physical

and mental recuperation.

The Loading Phase

* During the Loading Phase the body is stressed with an increasing

high volume of work that if kept for too long will eventually

result in overtraining and injury. During this phase, three things

will happen:

* The growth hormone output goes through the roof due to the short

rest interval between sets and the high volume.

* Hypertrophy (muscle growth) occurs by the body increasing the

levels of creatine, water and carbohydrates inside the muscle cell.

This phenomenon is called muscle voluminization.

* The body's recuperation capabilities are upgraded in response to

the stress imposed by the increasing volume of work coupled with

short rest intervals.

The Growth Phase

During the Growth Phase the body is not stressed by volume. This

time the stimuli are heavy weights. If this phase would be kept for

too long eventually the body would stop making strength gains and

you would plateau. This is the reason why you always need to go

back to a Loading Phase. During this phase the following three

things will happen:

* The testosterone levels go through the roof in response to the

longer rest in between sets and the heavier weights.

* Hypertrophy (muscle growth) occurs by the body increasing the

actual diameter of the myofiber (the muscle fiber size) through

increased protein synthesis (Note: protein synthesis is creating

protein strands through DNA and RNA and it takes place in the

cytoplasm of the cell.)

* Since your body's recuperation abilities were built up to the

maximum by the previous phase and the volume has gone down

dramatically, these extra recuperation abilities are used to

increase strength and build more muscle mass. The reason the body

does this is in order to be prepared for another stressful period

like the one it just went through. This adaptation mechanism is the

one that ensures the survival of the species.

* Even if you are training for fat loss, your main goal should

always be to stimulate growth. Otherwise, if you were to

drastically reduce training poundage in order to perform a lot of

high reps, there would be no reason for the body to keep the muscle

around. Because of this, you should always train with muscle growth

in mind and let the nutrition and the cardiovascular exercise take

care of reducing your body fat levels.

Using these 3 phases consistently in your training program will

allow you to get the body that you have always dreamed off in the

quickest amount of time possible; and that is regardless of whether

you are a male or a female and whether you are looking for a

competition physique or simply to lose weight and tone. 

Best of luck!

Hugo
