Article Ideas

I just wanted to get some ideas for future articles that will be posted on my blog but also might make an appearance on the forum as a topic for everyone's use (meaning the people who don't follow the blog :D ) or HCAM.

The current article I'm working on is on 'supplements'. I wanted to make it as direct and straight to the point as I could. But as I'm finding out, that is much easier said than done because I'm so anal :D

Suggestions?
 
How about the effect different rep & sets ranges have on your goals such as body composition, Power Lifting & Body Building
 
You could do a lot worse than discussing the Bulk/Cut routines that Alan A has just noted in his August newsletter. A realistic understanding of what is physiologically possible would do most trainees a huge favour.

i vote for this, maybe even include the rest timing effects on body composition if possible.

Perhaps something along the line of nutrigenomics? Leptin/ghrelin disorders...

Or liver detoxification and its role on hormones and how people can optimise these pathways to increase their free test levels?
 
christian I've been looking for a picture of that exact thing for ages but never knew how to word it in google. Thanks!

I just think its been done to death, we know what to do so do it...

Some people think too much about how to skin a cat without trying it.


So much room for more interesting things we dont know about...

Not is 8 reps better then 10??

Correct.

Put simply, use the rep range that is necessary for your individual goals.

If bodybuilding, doing a mixture of Scaro and Myo hypertrophy would be optimal.

The rest is pretty much self explained.
 
Hesre is a simple system of " double progression"

Pick an arbitrary figure

8 to 12

Pick an arbitrary weight

50 kg

Pick an arbitrary number of sets

Two

Over a period of months from one workout to the next, it should look like this;

50 x 10, 9
50 x 12, 10
50 x 12, 11
50 x 13, 12
50 x 13, 12
55 x 10, 10
55 x 11, 11
55 x 12, 12
60 x 10, 8
60 x 11, 9
60 x 11, 9
60 x 11, 9
65 x 9, 8
More often than not an increase in weight can stimulate growth
65 x 9, 9
65 x 10, 9
65 x 10, 10
65 x 11, 9
And so-on, as long as you see progress and your rep's are similar and controlled (good form) results will be amazing and your training life will be long and cosistant.
