Training body parts
How many times a week are you able to train each muscle group? Ive heard you can train each body part up to 6 times a week? is this possible? how would you go about going about this if you can?
It is possible, but think about it. When you train chest you ALSO train shoulders and triceps with them...naturally. I believe a good split is one you enjoy, and for me I enjoy pounding 1 bodypart at a time and doing squats daily! See my program here! https://content.tigerfitness.com/squat-every-day-rehab-health/
Can't seem to progressively overload
Hi Marc,
I've been training consistently for 2 1/2 to 3 years and I haven't been able to increase the weight I use to progressively overload for a while now, so my gains have stalled. I'm a smaller guy (5' 8" at 142 lbs) and I only manage to bench 145 lbs and squat 180 lbs for 6 reps. I workout at home, so I don't have a spotter or a full cage with pins if I fail, making it difficult to train beyond failure. I've tried drop sets and things like that, but I still can't increase me weight. Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks for you time.
You are at 145 for 6....Go to 155 and hit 4 reps and do it until you can get 6. Once you get 6, go to 155...and so on. You have to alter things
BCAA's
If you're already getting enough protein for the day (1-1.5g per lb.), or even more than enough, is it necessary to supplement with BCAA's as well?
Absolutely! Take DURING training to help build muscle and burn fat. Free form act much different than bonded when taken intraworkout. Consume 2 scoops Machine Fuel during training!
