Rice Home Fitness: New Cycle
http://ricehomefitness.blogspot.com/2007/10/new-cycle.html
Wednesday, October 24, 2007. Today, after a week of recuperation, I went back to the gym. I'm out of my low rep cycle, and started a full-body, twice-a-week, hypertrophy cycle. Today was- difficult. My routine:. Chin ups (with an assortment of grips and a little extra weight). Cable row, low and high. I only made it through deadlift. I'm not used to the cardio aspect of this sort of lifting and rested too long between sets to avoid barfing! I just have to look at it as a challenge instead of torture.

http://ricehomefitness.blogspot.com/2007/10/mixing-in-low-rep.html
Tuesday, October 23, 2007. Mixing In Low Rep. Low-rep lifting isn't for beginners. It can already be hard on the joints and connective tissue. Add to the mix improper form and a person who doesn't know his or her limit, and you're asking for an injury. So why should you even consider low-rep? Well, for an experienced lifter, it will break through the toughest plateau. When nothing else has worked, mixing in a low-rep cycle will. By lifting low rep (I hope you guessed that).

Monday, October 29, 2007. Calories In / Calories Out. Small meals often count for less.

Your body doesn't want you to carry extra muscle. Low glycemic meals make less fat. Exercise will increase your metabolism. Just eating less won't make you healthy.

Saturday, November 3, 2007. What you do in the gym is important. Using good form, lifting with intensity, working a proper split- these things are all going to affect your progress.

The strength building takes place outside the gym. I've read from several bodybuilders that they'd rather miss a workout than a meal. Subsc...
