Building Muscles – Weight Training – Big Chest. Massive Arms (Huge Biceps and Triceps.) Single Leg Squats. For big Thighs and Quads

Since I have finished my 120 day basic training, I have changed the training a little, and am doing slightly less reps for each set. I didn't think this would work for me as it hasn't in the past. But I must admit it is working and better than I expected.

Trainingshoulders 

I am lifting heavier weights. My lowest number of reps is 6. I am using around 10kgs more weight doing bench press which has really got me going. I cannot stress enough the importance of taking your time when doing your reps. Pumping the weight up and down as fast as you can will not get the same result if you just pause at the top and bottom of each movement. This puts a lot of extra tension on the muscle and forces the muscle to work really hard. You will feel the difference.

As you train try to be in touch with your body. Feel the feelings and get to understand your body. I believe our bodies talk to us all the time. When you really understand how your body feels you will have some amazing workouts. When I finished my bench presses I did triceps Push-downs and then Z bar curls for my biceps.

I missed doing legs because it was my birthday so threw in a quad (Thigh) training session. I nearly puked. Single leg squats with your free leg on the bench is so intense. It works the hamstrings along with the quads. I find I have to rest a little longer around 90 seconds between sets because otherwise I run out of air. It really knocks me. The real reward however is an hour after training. That is when you know your training was all worth it.
