NO - "Need to change your PANTS and put in some EFFORT".
We have a vast plethora of routines at our disposal in books and on the Internet. The majority of the lifting population who are half switched on follow the abbreviated training approach consisting of the raw compound movements.
Whilst this is all well and good, we see these people jumping from routine to routine on a regular basis, moving from a routine which barely differs from the previous. The difference is often a mere switch of movement from one day to another; a different combination of a routine they are already performing.
Let get one thing straight:
There is no magical combination of movements that will slap 30lbs within a few weeks, or MONTHS. Once you’ve realise this you can begin to progress.
Moving constantly from one routine to the other in an attempt to find the hidden gold is a complete and utter waste of time and effort. You won’t ever find it. It’s amazing how many people will deny the fact they take part in the routine treasure hunt, but the truth is, it’s everywhere.
Many people will claim that it’s to “avoid adaption”. What a convenient excuse! I suppose adaption is the same reason you need to buy another brand of Pump Powder because your body got used to the last?
It didn’t occur to anyone that they should maybe stick with a particular key natural movement of the body to become better at it….
Maybe when I have a child and it begins to take his or her first steps whilst learning how to use the muscles and bones of it’s legs, I’ll re-organise it’s natural learning process and have it walk sideways to avoid adaption. Maybe I’ll even turn it’s head around back to front in case his or her neck muscles become too accustomed to looking to the front. Maybe I’ll raise this obscure little family of mine in a new house that I’ll only live in for a month, before I f*ck off to the next….
Learn. Improve & Master THE BASICS, with cold, hard physical effort!
