We can all agree building muscle is a common goal amongst most people; however, we can also agree that actually accomplishing that can be quite the challenge. One of the main obstacles we see people running into is that they’re not sequencing their training appropriately.
And what I mean by that is if you think of it as LEGO blocks – we’re going to stack one LEGO block on top of the other. Each block is a specific block of training, and that block of training is going to be looking to accomplish something specific for you, meaning it will have a specific stress input to drive a specific adaptation.
If we’re looking to build muscle and hypertrophy, there’s an order to which we want to stack up these Legos so that you can be successful week to week and month to month without running into the ever so dreaded plateau.
This episode is all about the Rebel crew, Keiran Halton, Ryan Patrick, Ryan L’Ecuyer, Lance Goyke and I walking you through the approach we like use to help our clients build muscle. Listen in for a step-by-step approach to help you consistently build muscle.
