We are continuing our list of muscle gain programs. Why have we only these during last time? Because the winter is coming, foolish people! That’s why we need, need to recruit the mass. Of course, we should do it in a smart way. After the winter the summer will come and everybody will see who have eaten and who have trained hard.

Today’s plan has its aim to gain the muscle mass, increase the power exercises and improve endurance. Intensity level: intermediate. Duration: 3 weeks with 4 workouts in each week. Yes, it is 4 workouts in each. Yes, it is difficult and hard but not fatal.

The first week has shoulders and legs trainings. The second: chest and back. The third is dedicated to biceps and triceps. Every chosen group of muscles gets a load with supersets. Exercises, that are determined for the rest groups of muscles, training just split method. As a result we will have all muscles groups trained. On the one hand, this way gives the opportunity to maximize the work with whole body. On another hand, you will have enough time for the quality muscle recovery. And it can help you avoid the overtraining.
 

Following this program you can expect progress lasting during the four months. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. So after these wonderful four months you will have to change the program. 

As for the rest it shouldn’t be more than three minutes between supersets and form two to four minutes between sets in split trainings. I.e. every training lasts not more than hour and a half. Now let’s talk about pull-ups and push-ups. If these exercises are easy for you, use the weights. If not, try to use ‘Gravitron’-machine. If the gym has not such a machine, try to test analogues for pull-ups and push-ups. 

Oh, by the way, it is hard to train four times a week. But it is not fatal if you have proper nutrition and time for the rest. There are no alternatives to sleep but there is a large choice in diets and supplements, such as proteins and gainers. In short, that’s all. There are no nuances anymore.

So there is a large and intensive muscle gain program. Of course, somebody wants to say ‘itsfatal’, ‘icantdothiswithoutpills’...But guys, it is a pattern and you shouldn’t have bird brain and make it convenient to you.

I want to repeat once more, following such a hard program you should have good nutrition and good sleep. Don’t you know what to cook? We have refresh page with recopies and recommend you to look at. As for sleep, it should be not less than eight hours.

 If for some reason you have no possibility to train some exercises, you can replace them with any equal. It is important that aimed muscle has the load when you have workout.

I wish all athletes and jocks big mass. If you like the post, share it with your friends. There will be one plus in karma and two kilos of mass from us ;)
