New Planet Muscle Article

If you haven't already, please do yourself a favor and go out and buy the July/August issue of Planet Muscle.  I have an article in it entitled "The Big 5 Exercises for Real Mass."

I've written a lot of stuff over several years, and I feel pretty confident that this could be one of the best articles I've ever written.  I think it's definitely my personal favorite article.

A Different Kind of Heavy/Light Training

  A Total-Body, High-Frequency Training Program for Building Strength, Gaining Mass, and Conditioning Your Body      As regular readers of this blog, and my writing in general, probably know, I’m a big fan of high-frequency training (HFT for short).  I believe that HFT is the best form of lifting for the vast majority of trainees, especially the natural lifter.  Here at Integral Strength , I have a wide range of different HFT programs, from my popular 30-Rep Program (along with quite a few other easy strength regimens) to the 3-to-5 Method to Bill Starr-style H-L-M workouts to John McCallum’s High-Protein, High-Set Program —and everything in between.  In fact, most of my training programs fall under the umbrella of HFT.      Although it’s not always the case, HFT is usually combined with full-body workouts.  Many times, this is out of necessity.  If, for instance, you want to use a HFT program but you ...

Full-Body Workouts - Variety and Specialization

       I have been a voracious reader since I was quite young.  So, it only made sense that when I started lifting weights seriously in the late ‘80s that I would read bodybuilding magazines.  And I did.  A lot of them.  Starting in 1989, I’m pretty sure that each month I scoured the magazine stands for every magazine that came out.  IronMan , MuscleMag International , Muscular Development , Flex , and lesser known rags (at least, today they’re lesser known) such as Dan Lurie’s Muscle Training Illustrated and the natural bodybuilding magazine aptly titled Natural Bodybuilding and Fitness were some of my regular reads.  I couldn’t afford to actually buy all of the magazines at the time, which meant that I would sometimes hang out at the local grocery store or drug store’s magazine stands for hours so I could read the magazines from cover to cover.  If I did manage to scrounge up the money for a magazine or two, I almost ...

My Favorite Split Training Routines

         The other day, after writing my recent article “Full-Body Workouts—Variety and Specialization,” I received an email that went something like this: “Okay, coach, I get it.  You like, and I mean really like, full-body workouts.  But let’s say that you could only do split workouts for the rest of your life instead of full-body training.  What split workouts would you use?  I guess I’m asking, and really just want to know, what are your favorite bodypart splits?”   That is, I admit, paraphrasing the email, but it captures the essence and tone of my questioner.  Also, there was a lot more to the email than just those few sentences, but for the sake of what I want to write about here, that covers it.      I replied to the email and then didn’t think about it until a couple days ago, when I was in the middle of my current full-body routine and thought it might actually be a good subject for an ...
