More Is Not Always Better
- 1 Comment
The days of the three to four hour, marathon workouts are long gone. At least these kinds of workouts are gone for the bodybuilders who have stayed in touch with the new, more effective cutting edge training philosophies. Workouts of two or more body parts in a single session, while utilizing 15 to 20 sets for each of those body parts, is way out-of-date. Today’s bodybuilders have evolved with the advancements in training methods understand that brief, intense workouts are all that’s necessary for stimulating substantial muscle growth.
A common belief among many people training in the gyms today is that “the more you do the better.” People in general feel as though the more volume of work they can pump out, the better the outcome will be. It’s logical for a person to think this way. Isn’t that how most accomplishments in life work? The more you toil at something, the better you’ll be at it, right?
But when it come to building muscle, this is not true. If you want to generate muscle growth, adopting this mistaken belief will force you to settle for gains that are substandard to what you’re truly capable of accomplishing.
As difficult as it may be for you to grasp this statement right now, you must integrate it into your belief structure if you want to effectively add muscle mass to your physique.
Less is more sometimes!
When done with the right amount of passion and intensity, training the different muscle groups with less volume and less frequently, rather than with more work more frequently, is a far more effective way to build muscle.

Great point, so many people still think that doing “more” is the best thing for them. This couldn’t be any further from the truth. Keep up the great articles.
