[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1916″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Do you walk in to the gym everyday with no idea of what you’re training? Do you pick a random group of exercises every session? Could you tell me the weight and how many reps you did on every exercise? If the answer is no to any of these questions, how do you know you’re progressing?
The answer is you’re probably not, or at least not as much as you could be! If you don’t follow a structured training plan, chances are you’re just spinning your wheels and going nowhere fast.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1917″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Muscle doesn’t need to be ‘shocked’ or ‘confused’ with different exercises every session in order to grow. It needs a suitable stimulus applied in a progressive fashion – and the only way you can ensure that is by having structure. If you don’t go into every session with a set of numbers to beat, you’re doing something wrong.
Get a structured plan that’s set out specifically for your goals/biomechanics etc. Apply progressive overload (by performing more reps than last time or increasing the load used). Reap the rewards of consistency.[/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”padding_space”][mk_divider style=”thin_solid” thickness=”10″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/6″ css=”.vc_custom_1496933850010{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1326″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”5/6″][vc_column_text]About the author
