The Scientific Truth About Muscle Growth Once And for All

The Scientific Truth About Muscle Growth Once And For All - Part 1 & 2
by: Ben Kong

What if you finally had the scientific TRUTH about muscle growth once and for all?
What if you knew how to train to stimulate ALL of your body’s own natural growth
mechanisms? It would mean that you’d be packing on lean muscle mass as fast as
humanly possible.

Without understanding that there are two key mechanisms for muscle growth the vast
majority of guys training in the gym, even those who may have trained for years are
missing out on up to fifty percent of their potential gains. This is basically like wasting
HALF your precious training time.

Why does this occur? Well there are two basic ’schools of thought’ when it comes to
weight training and over the years they have been often at odds at to which is the
best way to train with heated debate, science and real-world examples to illustrate the
superiority of their own viewpoints. In one corner we have the classic bodybuilding
crowd who have always focused on the pump and isolating each individual muscle
and feeling the tension throughout the entire range of motion. This culture has also
permeated into most formal ‘gym instructor’ doctrine as it is generally a safe way to
train the masses.

The other way of thinking has much of its roots in powerlifting and strength training
and has a much greater emphasis on progressively hitting the muscles with heavier
weights in order to make them adapt and grow stronger and bigger. The focus is
much more on overloading the muscles by using looser form and momentum to be
able to hit the target muscles with more weight than would otherwise be possible.
They believe that whilst the muscle wouldn’t be under as much direct tension, the
sheer stimulus it receives from the heavier weights more than compensates for this
and is a better way to pack on lean muscle.

Most people in the gym tend to be one or the other, often depending on whom they
listened to when they first started out or whom they currently take their training
influence from. However is this a logical position to take?

NO.

This is essentially why the average person is missing out on half their potential gains
by only performing their exercises in one way.

In short, the science of muscle growth and the current practice of world class trainers
indicates that the FASTEST way to humanly pack on as much lean muscle as
possible requires your resistance training program to blend both heavy strength
based movements with looser form that still overloads the target muscles correctly
together with lighter movements that create maximise the ‘pump’ or what is known as
‘occlusion’ of blood flow.

Why?

For many years science has known that overloading muscles with progressively
heavier weights leads to lean muscle growth. However, many people including elite
bodybuilders adamantly trained for the pump and yet still grew and often
phenomenally at that. It is only recently that science has been able to discover why
training for the pump or occlusion creates muscle growth.

The most CRITICAL point is this though: Whilst the two styles of training stimulate
muscle growth, they do so through DIFFERENT pathways meaning that if you only
train in one style, you are missing out on the muscle stimulating benefits of the other.

So essentially the secret for maximum muscle growth is out: learn how to create
YOUR perfect blend of heavy power training that still hits its target muscles dead on
and tight controlled movements to maximize occlusion.

Using this ground-breaking science, the Ultimate Body Success Program will once
and for all help you to create a weight training program that isn’t some confused
collection of hype fuelled madness that had no basis in reality and the actual
physiological science of muscle growth. Using the concepts of Specific Targeted
Overload (STO) and Maximum Occlusion (MO) you will be able to know EXACTLY
what you are trying to achieve with each and every rep of each and every set. Body
part by body part you will be able to maximize the potential of each and every
exercise to precisely stimulate one of the two scientifically proven mechanisms for
muscle growth instead of just doing a set and having absolutely no idea if it helped
stimulate new growth.

No matter how often you are able to train you will be able to design training programs
for yourself like an expert because you will have a crystal clear idea of what each and
every exercise, set and rep is designed to do. You will finally be able to train with an
unprecedented degree of certainty and precision that will ignite new growth like never
before training totally in synch with how your body builds lean muscle mass.
