What's Going On In There?
The Anatomy of a ResistanceTraining Set
In resistance training there are many questions that need reasonable answers to help you design the best program to meet your strength training goals. This book provides readers with all the information they need to achieve the results they desire.
Topics covered include: the neuromuscular system, chemical interactions, energy systems and fatigue, genetic influences, skill and training and motivation factors.
777 WORKOUTS FOR ALL SITUATIONS
LITERALLY, A LIFETIME OF WORKOUTS for the gym, at home, outdoors, when traveling, when time is limited, or whatever your situation.
The complete 777 Workouts program includes these categories: weight room/strength, interval training, and circuit/boot camp.
The entire program consists of printable PDF files that you can assemble in a 3-ring binder for easy access.
The strength training/weight room workouts are old-school. That is, you'll be able to print workout recording forms to document the results of each session ON ONE SHEET as opposed to scrolling through your cell phone or tablet. That allows you to see all past results together to assure proper progression occurs. The answer to "how many reps, sets, and amount of resistance to use" will be right in front of you, allowing you to train with proper intensity and in less time.
