How To Get The Most From Your Time In The Gym

There are many men out there looking to pack on some extra muscle. What's the best way to do it? There's a lot of misinformation out there when it comes to weight lifting.

Too many people will tell you the same old thing: Lift weight 3 times a week. 3 sets of 8 reps. The same old broken record!

But the truth is there's a much better way to gain muscle and with much less work. If you don't like LIVING in the gym (I don't) then pay close attention to this:

You gain the most muscle by lifting more than you lifted before. What do I mean by that? That you don't really get much out of benching 150 pounds for 3 sets of 8 reps if you can do it 8 times too easily. This means you are not really pushing yourself. You should do the most weight you possibly can for ONE set of 8 reps! You will get more results using this technique.

Oh another thing. Take more time off from the gym! Really! You see, you gain muscle while you are resting, not while you are working out. Too many people are "over training" and don't see any results because of it. You have to give your muscles a chance to grow back bigger than they were before so that you can lift more than you did this time, next time.

If you are interested in these concepts then I highly suggest you go to www.LifetimeStrength.com and learn more about what I'm talking about. I'm only parroting the knowledge of Pete Sisco where I learned all of this from. It works for me, and it will work for you.
