Training Techniques: Training Up Big Muscles (Part 1)
In order to create a highly anabolic environment within the body, it is important that the largest muscles of the body (primarily those that are involved in the squat, deadlift, and even leg-pressing to a large extent, i.e. the muscles of the thigh, hip and lower back) are trained and stimulated to grow. Why? Since these muscles comprise such a large amount of the total muscle mass on the human body, any training stress of sufficient intensity to cause these muscles to grow will also place great stress on the body overall.
These large muscle areas play an integral part regards physiology and mechanisms throughout the whole body. They need support from smaller muscles in order to perform correctly which in turn creates the need for growth and recuperation to be generated in these muscles areas too. Examples of support muscles are the stomach which is needed for digesting the nutrients required by the muscles. This action will increase as the muscles grow so your stomach ends up adapting itself to these new needed requirements as it become more efficient. It is amazing what power training has over our body and just how well it can adapt to new needs.
When a maximum amount of training is applied on these large muscle areas the effect of stress placed on the body is clearly at a high. A highly anabolic environment is then produced throughout the body leading to the production of growth and repair on all muscle tissues that need attention.
The Importance of Protein and Water… The primary factor for our body to be able to adapt to training stress is to take in sufficient quantities of proteins and carbs. Normally people tend to go high on proteins and low on carbs but everyone is different, so you will just have to experiment a bit and see what works best.
Water tops the list though in components that our body needs especially when under heavy training and taking on a high protein diet. The muscle mass can be divided up into 70% water and 30% protein, showing just how necessary water really is. It also helps our body to flush out waste products and more important of all is that it reduces the amount of stress released on the kidneys. (Coming soon Part 2)

It is quite obvious that you take a certain amount of pride in your work and I find that quite refreshing in today’s world.

I just have to post about this, but this reminded me of the just released news with Craigslist’s CEO demanding for an apology from the AG of South Carolina. Always something new with Craigslist and things in the news.
