Progressive over-load for lean mass gains! Every time you hit the gym you should be focused on adding weight to the bar or performing more reps in your sets. If you’re doing this and you’re training with the principles above, then the extra calories you’re consuming are likely to be predominantly used to elicit muscle growth. Training frequency for maximum growth Training each muscle group directly once every 7 days is a strategy that is guaranteed to keep you growing. After intense workouts, muscles go through a repair and super-compensation process, known as muscle remodelling. The key is to allow sufficient time for muscles to maximally grow after they are trained – but to hit them hard again before they begin to atrophy. Seven days is the sweet spot unless you have excellent genetics! This strategy also enables you to create an effective training split with 3-5 workouts per week. Intensity is key – then rest to grow!
