Advanced
Training
Be
sure you read the Basic Training area
before moving on to the Advanced Training area.
Keep in mind that you don't just jump from basic
to advanced all at once. You will slowly
incorporate some of the techniques until you
find the ones that suite you best.
Once
you have a solid foundation you can begin using
some advanced training principles. The
main ingredient for becoming an advanced
hardcore bodybuilder is intensity. This is
when bodybuilding gets really fun!
Advanced
Training Concepts
High-set
training
is a relatively new concept. Back in the
day, guys would do only a few sets per body part
on a specific day. Nowadays this is more
of a powerlifter type workout. High-set
training is when you do about 15-20 sets per
body part. This could mean 75 sets per
workout!
Doing
a Double-split
workout is a great
way to make your workouts less demanding.
This type of workout takes a ton of dedication
and will power, but if you want a championship
body you need to sacrifice. A Double-split
is when you split your workout up into two
separate times in the day. This is the way
most every "contender" trains. A
good Double-split workout is shown in the first
advanced workout program.
Advanced
Training Program
Other
advanced training programs can be made from this
one. Once you are an advanced bodybuilder
you can make your own personal program to suite
your needs.
