Once upon a time, before the internet age, these
muscle mag/supplement industry cartels had the complete monopoly on the
information provided to thousands, perhaps millions of natural trainees
across the world . Today they are still big, but Information Technology
can give a help undreamed of before to novices and gym trainees to
avoid falling into the same trap. I wish internet existed in my teen or
twenties. The key to increase muscle size for a normal person is
exactly the opposite of what you read in the magazines: performing as
few sets as possible for body part, the smallest amount you can get
away with, and focusing on brief great intensity, not high volume gym
marathon sessions. Infrequent and intense workouts are the key, not gym
attendance records. Few tough and solid compound movements are the
tools, not useless and time wasting isolation exercises.
Supplement
and protein powders taken in the mistaken belief to help his body
recover and feed it nicely will only cause an increase in fat deposits
and a decrease in wallet volume. This is because his body, once over
trained, does not have the natural ability to absorb the vast amount of
proteins that it is force fed in the insufficient time given to rest
and recover from the already excessive amount of volume. That is
alright and well for the so called professional bodybuilders pictured
in the glossy muscle magazines, who have their natural ability to
train, recover and absorb proteins artificially enhanced by drugs. But
not for you. Most supplement companies work with muscle magazines for
their own gains and they fail to tell you on purpose so they can go on
making money. Natural trainees all over the world easily fall prey in
two steps to this misinformation mafia, firstly by following the top
body builders' high volume training routines that are way excessive for
a normal drug free person , secondly by buying the supplements
advertised in the very same magazines in the mistaken belief that their
muscles can absorb vast amounts or proteins and grow quicker. In the
end they get frustrated at the lack of results and end up with no
muscle to show for, no money and an extra layer of fat . Many give up,
many insanely carry on thinking they have "poor genetics" or they are
slaking off, resolving to workout even harder waiting for the magic
turning point that will never arrive.
